Do you have the confidence to tell someone that you like them/love them? WOuld you just go up to someone you where attracted to and just tell them? Or would you be scared of being rejected? Even though i know you have nothing to lose, like if you tell someone how you feel they will either not feel the same, therefore you havent lost anything in theory, or they will feel the same and you could gain something wonderful, i still dont like doing it lol. I supose once im pretty much 95% sure that they like me back i think i would go for it then, as i guess that reduces the chances of them saying they dont feel the same. Guess im just shy when it comes to things like that, and would rather the guy made the first move on me. What do you do?/ What do you feel?

well in my case, since i'm a girl, i really don't have the courage to the man that i love. however, i do things that can slowly make him realize that i am already expressing my feelings towards him. :) it's really up to you... it's up for you to handle the consequences that you'll be facing. i don't think expressing emotions is such a big problem. :)

personally, I dont have the guts to show my affection to someone, dont have the courage to make the first move since I'm a girl,eventhough we both feel the same way, I guess I'll just wait for him to make the first move...well if only I'm a man, surely it wont be a big problem showing my affection to someone even if I'll be rejected by her.

Yep thats pretty much what i do, i just dont have the confidence to go tell him. I guess guys must be pretty scared aswell though. I guess it would depend a lot on my relationship with the guy, and if i thought i knew how he would react. One thing i would be scared of is ruining the friendship. If i told him i liked him and then he didnt feel the same way and then from then on we felt awkward around each other, id hate to lose a friend from telling him about my feelings.

I express it in a light playful way. It is not said directly but it shows because i keep on contacting the person, saying i miss him if i can not see him or talk to him. I send e-mails of quotations, relationship tips and advice, send music video of my favorite song. If i already found emotional comfort with the person, yes i say to him that i like him or i love him, but it builds a time.

Yep i think thats a really good way, give little hints that you like them! Make them think "Hmmm does she like me?" then leave it up to them to make the first move. I do that because im too shy to actually say "I like you" first.

Yep think I would definatly want to be friends with a guy first before having a relationship with him. Being friends and being partners just seems different somehow, and i guess you need both of those to have a sucessful relationship. Like to have a great long lasting relationship with someone, you need to be their friend aswell
