Located in Asia, the Japanese culture is not a very extroverted culture, in that feeling of love is more than often implied, rather than articulated directly (saying I love you in Japanese is uncommon). Traditionally, calling the person by the first name (without suffixes such as -san, – kun, -chan, etc) expresses a very high level of intimacy, which usually happens privately in a closed space.
For instance, the married women call their husbands “anata” (in private) or unmarried people calling their lover “daa-rin” (darling).
