Today, I told my girlfriend I love her for the first time. She said, "Thanks." FML

Maybe she's just nervous. Give her a bit of time and don't bring it up for a 2-3 weeks, then ask if you said it too soon.

Just give her time, it's not always easy to say those words back, maybe she wants it to mean something important. I can be that way too, I don't want be be half assed about the word "Love". So just give her time :) Try again in 3-6 weeks, those who wait receives

You mean she didn't call you "the Egg McMuffin of boyfriends?" Well, "thanks" is probably better than "I'm not there yet, and I doubt I'll ever be." Buy her more stuff ;)

At least you didn't do a Ted Moseby and say it on the first date

If you tell someone that you love them it should simply be a confession of how you feel, not an expectation of getting something in return. Your assumption that she should return the sentiment is tantamount to you fishing for a compliment. You spoiled the moment with your presumption. Not her. YDI

Anyone else think of That '70s Show? "I love you, Eric." "I love... cake..."

Shes probably just not ready. Give her time:)

maybe she thought you were saying it in a joking manner, and not a legit I love you. try again.

I had the same thing happen to me the other day. I guy I like and we have been talking for over 3 years. He like my best friend. So I told him I love him the other day and he looked at me and smiled and said thanks. I asked him later y he said thanks. He said cus he got scared. Understandable but still. FML
