You give normal girls out there a bad name. YDI

Sounds like a lot of you think she's dumb. I agree, this might have been annoying for her boyfriend, but how hard is it to say "why I love you" just to cheer your girlfriend up? I mean, if she was asking for this everyday, then I agree, it would be be considered stupid, but she was having a bad day! He could have just said it, and not have been bothered, and he might have got some in the process....

I'm a girl, but I'm kinda with the guy on this one. We girls are so needy sometimes.

Well, my responce would be: "F you!! I guess now you're not getting that sports car!" -hang up.- Someone elses responce would be: "I'm breaking up with you." What was yours? ._. Did you do nothing? Anyways, break up with him. And tell him about the fake sports car. ;D

stop being so needy!

From the way your boyfriend worded this, it doesn't sound like this is the first time it's happening. If it is, maybe he's having a bad day. Being that it is over a text, people make mistakes. The problem is it's hard to correct them on a text, well... harder anyway than the phone/in person/ even MSN. Either way, as a guy that's gone through this same situtation a number of times before with my current girlfriend and first true love, it's frustrating as hell to have to do, especially over a text, but I understand the right answer does mean a lot to her, and a bad one, (his response), would leave her pissed as hell. I'm fine occasionally having to answer it, because I know how I feel about her, and although I'm still working on fully understanding what love is, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that I am feeling it at this very moment. Seems like an open ended research project anyway, and quite frankly it's more fun not understanding at times. But I also do know that she wouldn't ask this unless she feels down, because she knows I love her. Realisitically speaking, it takes less than 90 seconds to sum up a few things, (I'd suggest mentioning her smile, the way she makes you feel when you cuddle, etc), and she's content. We should be so lucky to be able to cheer up the ones we care about so easily, because even something like this, as trivial as it may seem, does make a big difference. At the same time OP, don't make it a consistent habit asking it. Every once in a while if you're upset it's fine, but doing it repeatedly is going to make your partner question the relationship as a whole.

You might as well ask the grinch why he loves christmas

That was pretty harsh but look at it from his view. He said you ALWAYS ask me this...... its pretty obvious this isn't an every so often thing and I'm just like you, always need to hear it but I've lost two gf's over it. Really, its annoying as f*ck!

#152, except... if you give a "wrong" answer, she'll be even worse off. I'd venture to guess that many boys hate it because it also feels like a needless mind game. And from the context of the OP, she seemingly is asking it every day and didn't let him know it was because she was upset.

I agree with #158. I'm a girl, but I won't bother anyone I'm dating with that question. It bugs the shit out of me when guys ask ME that on a constant basis. Just try and remember his answer from the first time you asked him why he loves you, and that'll be good enough.
