text: why girls make a big deal of "i love you"? seems like when i said it was a big deal  for her. i dont remember when i said that. she just reminded  me because they expected that you meant those words, not that you didn't even remember when you said them.  it would probably also be because they felt that way about you.  saying "i love you," in the heat of the moment is wrong, and girls should realize that.  some are young or innocent, though, and don't.  so, don't say those precious words unless you mean them.
