'I Love You' are three magical words that can make anyone's day go from blah to amazing. But if you haven't understood by now that people can use this term in a fake and meaningless way, then boy are you in for a bitter surprise. While these people might care about you and may not want to hurt you, their 'I Love You's' don't really mean anything because it's fake. And at the end of the day when they use this term to get their way, all you feel is manipulated. So, if you have a feeling that your partner uses 'I Love You' to manipulate you, here are some signs that will confirm it.

No matter what the situation is or whose fault it is, your partner always plays the victim and tries to manipulate you using those three words. He might say things like 'I love you so why would I do something like this?'. He tries to get away with things using those three words in his defence.

If you're in a good relationship with a decent partner, he'd never force you to do things you don't like doing or don't want to do. So, if you find your partner pushing you to do things by claiming that he loves you then he isn't right for you. There's a fine line between helping someone out of their comfort zone and pushing them to do something they don't like.

How many times have you turned to him for comfort in times of need and he's just unavailable? And how many times have you confronted him only to have him tell you that you're overthinking and that he 'loves you'? Well, looks like he doesn't really love you.

Your partner knows that you melt at the sound of 'I Love You' so they say it everytime they want something in return. For example, your partner might call you, talk to you about some random stuff, say 'I Love You' and then probably say something like, "So babe, could you loan me some money?". Using those three magical words to get something is just not right.

Once again, this term is not something that can be just used loosely. If you're having an argument or a disagreement with your partner and you find them using the term over and over again in an attempt to diffuse the situation and get their way, then they aren't really right for you.

When someone truly loves you, then their body language will also show signs of love for you. Be it eye contact, a gentle peck on your cheek, a tight hug or just holding hands, your partner will show you that they love you too. So, if your partner says that he loves you but his body says otherwise, then he's probably faking his 'I Love You'.

Just because you're dating someone doesn't mean that you're 'In Love' with them. You might just like them or like certain things about them which is why you refrain from using terms like 'I Love You' early in the relationship. But if you notice that he used the term pretty loosely and quite early in the relationship then he probably doesn't mean it.
