"He's probably not sure how to respond but you sha know he loves to you as much ! I think it's a male thing cos my boys now aged 11& 9 get shy telling me I love you back so I guess it's their thing "
Nwadiuto M. Ikonta-Odediran opined:
"I tell my sons I love them regularly so they are kinda used to it & reply with I luv you too. Since it's your first time of typing it I'm sure he'll get used to it & know how best to respond."

Ekundayo Titilayomi Adeniran Albert remarked:
"He is still processing it.... With time he would get use to it. Remembering like some 10years back whenever I tell my brothers I love you, they either keep a straight face or tell me to give it to my boyfriend. But now they are so use to it that they are always expecting it."
Olu Adeyemi stated:
"He will get use to replying back. Give him the benefit of the doubt since this is the first written message of such to him. Next time, there will be a cute response from him,l trust him to do that."
Man takes back money from bride after she refuses to smile
Social media users have reacted to a bizarre occurrence that took place at a wedding ceremony, reported Briefly News.
While it has become commonplace on wedding occasions for couples to be sprayed money by guests, this same gesture by a guest was received differently by a bride.
In a video shared on Instagram by @saintavenue_ent1, a bride stood like a log of wood and didn't smile as an agbada-wearing guest rained money on her.
