Hello everyone,
First i'll apologize to those who will get upset by this as its not my intentions. i'm talking to all the one's in love out there and asking what there answer would be if they received something like this. how would you feel, would you feel happy, loved and would you send them something nice back or do something nice in return or would you just dismiss it as if it was nothing?

Give a little bit of your love to me I'll give a little bit of my love to you
There's so much that we need to share Send a smile and show you care
I'll give a little bit of my love to you Give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely heart Take his hand, you'll be surprised
Give a little bit of your love to me I'll give a little bit of my love for you
Now's the time that we need to share So find yourself, we're on our way back home Going home
Don't you need to feel at home?

Yes some of you might know the words but its the thought behind it that counts! I also know that its asking for some love but it is also saying what they would/are doing. Just wanting to know what your replies would be to YOUR loved one if they were to send you something like this. Thank you for your kind replies.

I didn't know these were lyrics - but if I received something along these lines I'd be a bit freaked out and find it way too intense.

If this was early on in a relationship I'd be totally scared off and would ignore it and if I continued to get such texts probably end the relationship ASAP. If it was in a long term relationship then I'd be totally confused and probably reply back asking if the text was for me or some sort of mistake! For me it feels more creepy than soppy.

i guess i didnt explain it good enough, or people have got lost along the way
i am not on about the email nor to who it might have been sent to. i just gave a sort of idea
it was asking what people would have done in return if they had got an email with love in it.

The thing is, from my pov, you are asking ''people'' about an expression of love in another person's words, as contrasted with asking the right person about exression of love as you feel it.

How i'd feel about an email would depend on who it was from and the circumstances alone, not just the email in isolation. (a cringeworthy email from DH would be seen as an overlookable flaw in his otherwise perfection and disregarded, a good one would be responded to with a retort)

The interesting question to me, assuming the responce was not good, how does OP feel about that!?

There wasnt a OP, it was how you would feel if your loved one had sent you an email of love/ with love or even about love.

i asked for kind views on receiving nice emails, admittedly the ones used were just thrown together but they were saying that love is all around us and that we all give love.

Okay ... so you are asking how people would react if they received an email saying love is all around us and that we all give love? Not necessarily those exact words in your original post - but that kind of sentiment?

TBH I'm not sure it would really change my response that much - I don't feel comfortable receiving this kind of "love is all around us" sentiment by email so I'd ignore it just because I wouldn't feel comfortable. Not everyone likes to be open with their feelings or have other people express their feelings to them very openly.

Love doesn't come in an email. Sorry.

If I'd have had that I'd press delete - as the person obviously knew so little about me and had made assumptions rather than doing some proper research on me.

if the truth be known, it was 3 emails sent as a last ditched attempt for the person to show some love in some way or other so that they would know there was some there.

I guess the old romantics died in the last ice age!

I am romantic and my husband definitely is too and we both think that your poem on your OP is not romantic as such, its sloppy nonsense designed to make you think "How sweet" but when you look at it again, its not that sweet at all.
I wouldn't appreciate that if it was sent to me because I would feel as though I were being manipulated.

i give up as i keep repeating myself.

You're asking what people would do/send in return, yes? Well surely that depends on how it makes the person feel/think. And seeing how most people think it's either cheesy, unimaginative or just plain ol' rubbish, i think the answer to your question is 'not a lot', delete or ignore.
