Confess Your Love: How to tell him that you like him
What can I say about love, that hasn’t been said? Like most of us, I can’t explain what love is; I can’t describe love with words. I can just tell you that every time I am in love I feel like I’ve drank 10 espressos in a row!
There is a Greek proverb that says: “You can’t hide love or a cough.” It’s true! When you are in love, you can’t hide it! However, most of us are very well trained in hiding our feelings. Although “I love you” are the most beautiful words ever said (or heard), it’s those 3 words which we are most afraid to blurt out. Why? What are we so afraid of? Is it rejection? Are we afraid that the other person will laugh in our face?
I don’t think it has to be so hard to say “I love you.” Just think about it. What would you do if someone told you that they loved you? You’d probably smile, right? Why would the one you love should act otherwise?
When it comes to confessing our love, we all make excuses like “it’s too early” or “it’s too late” or “it’s not the right time…I’d better wait!” Well, if you want my opinion this “perfect time” may never come. Have you ever found out that the one you lusted over five years ago was also in love with you, but no one was brave enough to spit it out?
Speaking as a woman, we are usually afraid to flirt with a man, as we are afraid to confess our love before he does. Because when a man confesses his love, he seems romantic; but when we do, we seem desperate. Well, I have some news for you girls! You don’t look desperate if you tell your partner you love him. It doesn’t mean you want to marry him, nor that you want to have his children. It’s just healthy and pleasant to express your feelings. It’s kind of a relief. After all, love is a feeling meant to be shared.
The first step is to admit it to yourself that you are in love. Then, you just have to share it with them. Since you have to tell them one way or another, all you have to do is choose which way.
The old fashion way: Call, blurt it out, and hang up.
Alternately: Call, don’t talk and dedicate play their favorite song.
This seems kind of stupid, but romantic! You may look like a coward, and they won’t be 100% sure it’s you, but it’s enough to get their attention.
The romantic way: Give them a rose or a love letter, or draw something.
In other words, use your talents and make your statement as an artist. You can write something of your own, or copy a “I love you” quote or poem (you can find them after a brief search over the Web). You don’t have to give them yourself. You can leave them in their desk, their pocket or outside their house. You can also send them flowers (guys admit that they love being sent flowers) including a special dedication.
The heroic way: Throw it into their face
Better choose to tell them when they least expect to hear it, like when you are having dinner at a restaurant and they can’t overreact. However, you can tell them any time you want, when you are jogging together, when you are stuck in a traffic jam…just take a big breath and go for it!
The modern way: Send an e-mail gift card or text message.
This is less painful. You don’t have to look them in the eye while telling them. But you risk that they may not answer; at least not immediately. Maybe they won’t check their email, or may have forgotten their cell phone at home. In case they doesn’t answer you, can either assume that they don’t want to, or that you are a bit unlucky and their phone was stolen that day! If you can stand the entire waiting thing, you can try something like that.
The devious way: Make them tell you first.
You can simply ask them if they love you during a romantic night. They wouldn’t like to spoil the atmosphere – if you are not afraid to be a little more provocative, you can ask him between the sheets (the worst answer they can give you is yes). You can also ask in front of your friends during a conversation or during a table game. They’ll spit it out first, unless they want to make a fool out of themselves.
The childish way: Besides funny notes and little hand-made presents, you can write a “I love you” note and tie it to a rock. Then throw the rock into their room. You might break a window or two, but it’ll be worth it. They say the only difference between a man and a boy are their toys. So, if that is true, he’ll love it!
The extreme way: Print their photo, write “I love you” on it, and post it somewhere they’ll see it for sure! Which train do they take to go to work? Which building do they see every morning when they open their window? Does their house have an elevator? That’s a good choice!
I have tried them all and they all worked. Not because I used the right way for the right man, but because every “I love you” is never a total waste. I mean, sometimes all it needs is to just say it!

I did this yesterday, i just told him up front that i needed uncondishional love.
through e-mail of course, and his response was overwillming. i litteraly told him that i loved him.
that gave me strength to confess to my friend that ilove him by email
and the fact i was single for 6 years and that make more scary
I plan to tell a person that I love them over facebook chat, I think they are going to be shocked, but I’ve written something and at the end I’m going to put, “you don’t have to reply, its an awkward situation I have put you in and its fine that you don’t feel the same.”
i need to tell the guy im in love with, dont know how im going to do it tho, maybe after we make love or something.
its scary though never felt like this before for anyone, maybe i could just show him this page lol
i told him that i want him to be someone special in my heart (through sms). However, he did not reply to me since then. i am so frustrated.
Be careful with the heroic way…I tried and got sooo nervous that I screwed everything up at the last second and came off really cocky and agressive when I realized the chance was slipping away and now he hates me
that really is some good advice, but i only see him in summer vacation. But ill try to confess within these few months
okay what the hell!!! i dont even have the guts to tell him i like him. it seems like all of his friends knew i like him..T__T it would be too weird.
another thing do you think he also have the mutual feelings for me.. he keeps on asking our mutual friend about me. for example “do i ever have any boyfriend or do i like him or where am i?”
he already have my phone number but he never texted me! so i have no idea whether he likes me or not.. and it makes me more aware of what is he going to say to me if i confess my feeling. HELP?
Hey, I’m a guy but it seems like the web has no sites dedicated to a male expressing his love to a female. lol. But I guess it’s the same thing. I’m so in love with my girlfriend and we’ve talked about it and she said that she could see loving me in the future. I don’t want her to feel like we’re moving to fast. We’re seniors in highschool and she is a firm believer in “No love during high school.” And I don’t want to hurt her because she believes love can exist many times but it’s hard to let go each time. We won’t see eachother after highschool is over…so I don’t want her to feel like she’s letting go of love. I think I’ll just stay quiet. =(
