If you're in love with someone very intensely, but the two of you haven't hooked up yet, it can of course be very uncomfortable and aggravating since the higher your hopes are that they want you back, the harder the hopes hit the ground when they fall. If it's as bad as my situation, though, my hope would probably pick itself up bloody from the ground and desperately try to fly again.
Is it better to tell them "I like you" (haha, what an understatement) in a straightforward way, or just try to get closer by flirting or spending time together and see where it takes you?
Obviously the straightforward way has a greater risk of rejection. It's the way I'd prefer by far, i.e. you both just like eachother and kiss or something. But if the person doesn't like you back...you've just made them uncomfortable by putting pressure on them, and on top of that you might be endangering the friendship you have! Not to mention I would sink into a depressed coma and die. Actually, I would certainly be deeply depressed but instead of a coma I would just be nonfunctional and feel lost.
What are your thoughts on this?
