Someone has to go first. But you don’t have to go large and buy a billboard, says Annalisa Barbieri
I have been in a relationship for nearly 18 months. It has been going great and the way my boyfriend treats me is everything I want from a partner. The only thing is, he hasn’t told me he loves me.
I make up excuses as to why he might not have said it, such as ‘some men can’t say it’. My dad was similar: he never said he loved my mum. Dad said he couldn’t say it (he grew up in a household without much love), and would buy jewellery for my mum to show that he loved her.
