I "Love" You! (Really?)

Love was once a powerful word, a word that could change everything,and in some cases destroy everything. "Love" has become so common that the word is virtually meaningless in most cases. There are very few people who I take seriously when they say "I Love You", any other tom,dick,and harry just get a nod and a "i love you too." I have a new co-worker at my job, they seem like a decent person, but 1 hour into my shift they said, "I love you!", now I know I've turned a few heads in my day, and I may have been the cause of 1 or 2 break-ups, and my cologne is always on point,but you "love" me? Really? I was almost tempted to ask why? What did I do in this hour that I have known of your existence, that could possibly make you love me? If I needed you in the middle of the night would YOU be there for me? If I became terribly ill could i expect to see your "loving" face in the hospital?  I doubt it my "love". I can hardly remember the days when the word "bitch" was an insult, and not a compliment, when "love" meant y'all would basicially get married, and peopled started off liking you before they professed their  "love" for you. I admit, I have tossed around the "L" word a few times, but no more. I will attempt to only say "I Love You", to those which i truly love, to all others, you will recieve the same courteous nod as before.
