For one, it may support the stereotype that women want commitment while men want sex, a notion that’s often completely false. Of course, this view is somewhat limited. Research from 2015 supports this suggestion, going on to note that some women may wait to say “I love you” because they don’t want their partner to feel rushed into commitment. The study authors suggest that women may trust a confession of love less when it comes before sexual intimacy, since they might consider it a less-than-honest means of getting sex. Women experienced more positive emotions when men said “I love you” after becoming physically intimate.īasically, people often begin to consider saying “I love you” somewhere around a few months into a relationship. Confessions of love generally inspired feelings of happiness, but men felt more positive about confessions that happened before the relationship became sexual.While men tended to consider confessions of love acceptable after about a month or so, women tended to say it was better to wait 2 to 3 months or so.They were also more likely to say “I love you” first. Men didn’t just think about confessing before women.On average, it took them 97.3 days to consider saying “I love you,” while it took women just about 138 days to consider saying the words. ![]()
