Love on the Phone Line

Most of us want to know what we mean to those who mean everything to us, but how do we know if we don't tell each other? I want to share an experience of mine to tell you when you really love someone, tell them directly.

When I was growing up, I never heard the words "I love you" from my father. If your father never says them to you when you are a child, it gets more and more difficult for him to say those words as you get older. In fact, I never said those words to him, either.

A few years ago, I decided to make the first move. After some thought, I called my father on the phone and said: "Dad, 1 love you!" There was a moment of silence at the other end of the line. "Well, same back at you!" he replied quietly.

"Dad, I know you love me. When you're ready, you'll say it, too," I said with a smile. Then I hang up the phone. But fifteen minutes later, my mother called and asked if everything was "OK", She seemed nervous. "Your father seems to have something to say after answering your call". 1 didn't tell my mother about the call. I just told her it was a secret between us.

A few weeks later, Dad called and ended our phone conversation with the words: "Son, I love you," I was at work during this conversation and tears came to my eyes as I finally "heard" the love. This special moment took our father-son relationship to a new level. Later, we got used to saying "I love you" to each other.

I think if I had not taken the first step, I would have never heard the love from my father.
