The words "I love you" are the most beautiful words you can say to a person and the most beautiful words you want to hear from a person.. so to shorten that and use a made up abbreviation I think don't give these words justice and don't convey the same feeling.

I don't think it does.
I mean, it's fine once the fact that you love the other person has already been established (as in, you've told them that you love them verbally before), but not for a first time. I wouldn't want to be told that I was loved through Internet or text speak if my significant other had never proclaimed it before. And the "ily" is better left for casual friends, or note-passing in class, rather than when it's being used to express a genuine feeling at an important moment.

When an emotion is strong enough, concentration increases a lot more. Which means that someone who actually has those emotions would write "i love you"... and not "ily".
Love makes you want to express it. Not conserve 5 more seconds by reducing it to "ily"..
and for the record...when I don't love someone...I always text "ily" instead.

No. When you write ily, it makes a guy think that you are just saying it out of habit and didn't really mean it. It's not necessarily bad, just, it won't have the same effect as saying it in person would.

I use ily when I'm saying goodbye to my friends, so if you want it to hold serious meaning to someone, then no.
When I get comfortable in a relationship and they know I'm texting or typing quickly on my way out, I use ily, it depends on how well the person knows you.
