"If there is an exchange of "I love yous" within canon, then I'm afraid that yes, you do"

No, I really don't. You know why? Because my mom says that to my dad basically every other day. But it's not true. She's said so to me when we're alone. My grandfather said that to me as well but I don't believe it. Because I've never met him. I talked to him basically five times in my life over the phone and at the same time, he called me fat and berated me for not losing weight. HE might think he loves me or he might want me to believe that he loves me, but I don't think he does.

And you know that this is also what abusers do, right? They say they love you but then treat you like crap.

So Character B might say "I love you" to Character A, but that doesn't mean crap to me. Character B could easily be lying. Character B might not have experienced true romantic love yet and thus believe he's in love when he's not. Character B could be saying it to placate Character A. Or a variety of other reasons. So it very much IS open to interpretation.

That Character B SAID "I love you" in canon is a fact. That Character B is being completely honest with Character A (or with himself) is open to interpretation however.

I'm not claiming that my interpretation trumps anything. Me not believing it does not prohibit YOU from believing it. I'm not showing disrespect to say that I find Character B's behavior to be inconsistent with that of a person in love and thus I do not believe Character B is being truthful when he says those words. Either that, or he doesn't truly understand what those words mean.

If you believe it, then please feel free to. But I am not confined by your views. I am not imposing my views on anyone -- I'm not saying you are wrong or berating you to change your ways. It is not arrogance or disrespectful to simply state my perspective of events.
