I don't like to hear 'I love you,' every single minute of every single day. That's how you'll convince me that you don't love me, if anything. I find that people, these days, are so easy to part with the word love. People will often say things like, 'I love this sweater,' or, 'I love your car,' or, 'I love Kanye West.' And they actually do not love these things. They just like them a lot.

Whenever someone tells me that they like me, I always instantly feel it more than I do when someone tells me that they love me, given that the context adds up of course. Like when I meet a new person and they tell me that they like me for the first time, whereas other have told me that they loved me that first time. You cannot compare the two. I am much more complimented by being told that I am liked. It is honest, and it doesn't over do it on the love thing, and make it lose its meaning.

It's just like swearing. When you swear too much, it loses its effect.
