How do you tell ppl that....

you like them? Would like to date them? How long does it take you before you get the courage to do so?

my personal opinion --- is just do what your heart tells you to .... if they like you ... they will NOT be offended .... if you ask .... wink

that is assuming that you have known them for a while ...

i mean- if they seem offended ... then maybe they were not "right " for you anyways , right ??? cool

thanks, well how long is a while? I really like this one guy, talked to him 3 times, (don´t know what his name is though - these were very short talks), but he seems to like me as well. wink But I am just scared to say something. I am too shy. What shall I do now?

I don't know

I guess I have always been just friends with the people i end up getting involved with, and it just seemed the natural progression.

I thought u were a male biggrin Girls got it luckier then guys. I often find the guy has to make that all importmant move. I usually have to. And yes i have been turned down before.

Anyway check if they light up when u walk up to them. See if they smile naturally or not. That can be a good sign (if rahter obvious)

Also check if other person is even a lil' nervous. Often anyone, any age are, no matter how extroverted the person is. Sometimes u find that u do not have much to say to eathother in fear of saying something stupid.

? The ways of love eh?

I find the chase more excting then the relationship at times. Perticually girls I have been trying to crack for weeks.....

this is interesting, you´re right about that smile. Gotta check that out.

Anways this guy is pretty outgoing and he does not talk that much with me. When we I start the conversation he has no problem to carry on, which is the same with me, so we both have problems making the first step. Like today he actually walked right after from classroom and I wanted to say something, but before I got the courage our ways split and when I turned around he wasn´t there so I started looking for him when our eyes met. He was looking downstairs at me as well. I think he´s finding his ways to be near me, but hell we both gotta do something about it.... I can´t let him go...

Yeah I have learned the smile thing can be accurate. Eyebrows go up aswell of course.

Good luck.

Thing is in college/work/school environment is that if u do get turned down or they say "sorry Iam seeing someone", u then keep bumping into eachother which is always a nightmare.

you say you talked to him a couple times ...

i would say - take it slow ... guys appreciate that ... in my opinion .... if you want a long term relationship with the dude ... take a deep breath ... think it thru ... getting nervous for a guy is cute ... but also it can be debilitating to you ... relax ... you are young ...

you say he seemed to like you ... you sensed sparks ??? nothing like those sparks and smiles when you sense that they like you ! ... enjoy it ... and smile back ... remember - smiles are cheap !

I can imagine..

yeah, but hard at times, when you are too shy, cause those smiles are like saying "I like you" and you are scared of being turned down...


relax ... you are young ...


not that young - 25

anyways guys, thanks very much for your imput so far!! I appreciate it. biggrin

It's hard but it's something you just have to do or you may lose the opportunity. I was interested in my boy for a long time but was too shy to actually admit it or do something about it. When I was ready I found out he started dating someone and I was PISSED! Fortunately for me it didn't work out and now things are going my way.

So don't wait, just show interest and invite him out for a drink somewhere.

Good luck!

see, I know exactly how you felt. Once I was in love with this french guy (we both were in England - studying) and one day I was like: "ok, this is it. I gotta tell him or do something about it." ANd the day I was determined to do something he didn´t come to school and I NEVER saw him again. Later I found out that his mother was sick with cancer, didn´t feel well at all, so he went home. sad

nod I agree with CarrieLee. Make a move before you lose the chance to do so. It seems like he likes you too. Maybe you can ask if he wants to have lunch, you know, something low pressure. Just ask, don't think about being nervous or scared - he probably is also. I've asked men out before and it always worked in my favor.

I think with regards to my previous experience you´re right. I wish I´ll be able to do that. Keep fingers crossed.....

Just ask the person out and let things evolve. Its important to entertain the tastes of the person that u are trying to get with. Let them know exactly what it is about them that u are attracted to and be honest and confident.

I try not to tell them unless I'm sure it's mutual. Whenever I have taken a chance in the past it always turned out to be a big disappointment, so now I just keep my mouth shut.
