How do you say 'I love you' or just 'love' in Igbo?

My fiance doesn't say i love you often but he gets mad when i don't say i love you back to him?

• i am having this problem with my fiance. he's really committed to me and i am too.but ever since we started this relationship he doesn't say i love you enough to me.or should i say he barely say it.i did my best to get used to it now.everyone is different and its actions that counts.if he's treating me right why would i worry about those little things.and besides he's not the kind of person to say things like this all the time i can understand that.my previous boyfriends would say it a lot of times and say it back with such emotion when i say i love you.but with him its different.when i say it back he often replies as if i forced him to say it or he says it very fast while we're having a conversation or when i'm mad at him .the problem is he wants to get mad at me now because when he says it i don't reply or say something else or i dont realize he actually say it.i don't know how to explain it but i have been so used to him not saying it that the rare times he does i don't know how to reply, i don't know if it's sincere,or he would say it when i'm mad and that wouldn't make me want to answer,or he would say it while i'm talking and i can't reply right away. what am i supposed to do now?he's actually mad at me and refuses to talk to me for the night because of that.he says that he would not reply to my i love you anymore.

• Answer:

  Break the engagement. If you don't trust his sincerity and he's playing power games over what's supposed to be a heartfelt expression of affection, neither of you have any business even thinking about getting married.
