"He Loves Me. He Loves Me Not..."

He/She Loves Me, He/She Loves Me Not or effeuiller la marguerite (in French) is a game of French origin, in which one person seeks to determine whether the object of their affection returns that affection or not.
A person playing the game alternately speaks the phrases "He [or she] loves me," and "He loves me not," while picking one petal off a flower (especially an ox-eye daisy) for each phrase. The phrase they speak on picking off the last petal supposedly represents the truth between the object of their affection loving them or not. The outcome depends on whether the flower has an even or odd number of petals. The player typically is motivated by attraction to the person they're speaking of while reciting the phrases. They may seek to reaffirm a pre-existing belief, or act out of whimsy.
A humorous twist on the game, is, "She Loves Me, She Loves Me Lots."

I did this all the time as a little girl... <33
Me too! Me and my girlfriends would always have fun thinking about our crushes and then playing this game to "find out" if they really loved us or not. ;-)
