"I Love Me Some Him" is a song by American R&B singer Toni Braxton from her second studio album, Secrets (1996). Written by Andrea Martin and Gloria Stewart and produced by the Danish duo Soulshock & Karlin, the song was released as the flipside to the album's third single, "I Don't Want To", solely in the United States, while international versions of "I Don't Want To" did not include "I Love Me Some Him".

"I Love Me Some Him" was a major R&B airplay hit during the course of 1997, reaching the top position of Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, and while there was no music video filmed for it, it has become one of Braxton's most requested singles. As such, it was included on her 2003 singles collection Ultimate Toni Braxton.
