Anyone who's in a relationship has asked this question. This question is designed to get couples thinking. It's easy to say "I love you because....", it's another when you have to think critically about your answer. The depth of your answer can make or break a relationship. When a man asks his woman "Do You Really Love Me", he wants to know if she would love him without the accolades, success, and material posessions. Also, when a man asks his lady does she really love him, 90% of the time, he wants something. Example: A man and woman are home chilling, when she asks a favor of him. He doesn't want to get off his couch, but after much coercion, he gives in. What sealed the deal is when she asks "Do you really love me?". A man wants to know his woman will love him when he's going through a rough period, not when the bottles are popping and everything's sweet. It's easy to love your mate when there's sunshine; that love is tested when it seems like they're catching hell from all sides, your spouse included. I don't have a problem being asked this question if she's unsure of my love for her. Sometimes, women & men are unsure of their mate's love for them, so they need clarification every now & then. It's said that women need reassurance their man loves them. That's where the discrepancy lies because men show better than tell. A good man shows his woman how much he loves her by how he treats her. If he's treating her right, that should be good enough for her. Noooooo, some women need to be told 200 times a day "I love you". Words alone aren't going to cut it. As with everything, actions speak louder than words. Then again, some people are built like that: They appreciate the action of being shown love, but hearing those words "I love you" is icing on the cake. People have different love languages: Some want to be shown love, others want to be told they are loved, and others are a mix of show & tell. I'm a combination. I would rather be told I'm loved, THEN shown. The action is far more precious than words.
