You know it's weird, I sort of cringe at the idea of most public displays of affection. I'm not sure why. I guess like part of me feels like that part of a relationship is special and should be kept private between just the two of you? D: I dunno. I've never been with someone that wanted to be all snuggly in public, so . .
I'm not really sure what is meant by returning affection to your family, though. ^^ I guess moms and daughters have a different relationship than fathers and sons. But, having said that, everyone in my family says "I love you" to each other. Like if I see my mom, dad, a brother, or my sister at the store, we'll always end with "Bye, love ya!" or something. It's just .. what we do? ^^;;
I'm a pretty firm believer in always trying to end an encounter with close people on a good note? ^^ What if something happened to you or that person? Would you really want your last memory of them to be you storming out of the room or would you prefer it to be telling them "I love you"? I vote for the latter, personally .. even when I'm mad at the person, and I need to be alone, I'll still say it. ^^;
This post isn't really directed at one particular person, just the culmination of reading about a page and a half worth of posts and some ruminatin' up in my brain.
