Is it easy for you to like someone when you know that he or she likes you?

The scenario, you are friends with this person (guy or girl), and you get a long pretty well. You, initially, did not have romantic feelings for person, then one day, he or she approached you and told you that he or she likes you.
Will you eventually like the person and fall for him or her gradually because you know that he or she likes you, so there's a security blanket of sort?

Why do you say so that it is easy to like someone if you know that person likes you?

My mate started out as my friend. I have had a few relationships like that. I find it's easier to find things in common if you already know the person and are familiar with their likes and dislikes. Kind of like testing the water before jumping in hehe.

That's great, but I wonder like if you barely had an idea that s/he likes you will you have enough guts to tell her/him how you feel without the security of the liking being reciprocated?

well you have got a point over there that since you know him you can definitely judge to the fact that whether he/she likes you and whether you can trust him or not.
but in the end it all comes down to the fact as to how you feel about him/her.
if u believe that his feeling towards you are sincere and you can trust him, then i don't think there should be any problem in getting along. But if you are not sure then you can always ignore him for some time being and can give it a thought a later and if you believe that he/she may be just another nice guy and you believe that there must be someone else then you can definitely go to the later option.
and since you both know each other well then i don't think there's any chance of misunderstanding
and whatever you do listen to you heart
I hope your relation turns out to be great

Not for me, I like the fact that I challenge myself to someone who does not like me. Like my hubby, I am actually the one who go for him
I was really attracted to him then and work my way so he can like me too, now we are happily married and have three boys.

It actually depends if I like the other person too. Sometimes I think a friend is better off being just a friend when I'd think it's just impossible to be more than friends. Yes there's a security blanket there when he would approach. But it's no use if I prefer not to be more than friends. If I like him well enough then he's say he likes me too then there's more chances I'd fall for him.

I agree with you, it will be easier to like someone if you like him too not just because you learned that he likes you but because you felt it.

I think it's sort of like a security blanket. If you weren't into them before, you're not going to really be into them now. You'd just like the fact that they're into you, and that always nice. To be wanted.
You would have had those feeling to begin with it were true. People can easily get "strung along" in a situation like this.

I have to agree with you, sometimes, people like the feeling of being wanted, and sometimes since they feel elated that they are being wanted, they try to associate the feeling of elation with reciprocating the feelings to the person involved.
