how to tell a girl you 'like' them

[boyo]

hello there i am a 17 guy and i have found myself very interested in a girl. i have been friends with her for over a year now, but i am starting to like her in a difefrent way. i want to tell her how i feel, but im afraid i will get rejected and then make a fool of myself. Any suggestions on how i could tell her? thanks for your time.

be up front. if you're good friends with her, you may feel uncomfortable if the plan doesn't go as you wanted it to, but being you are close to her, she'll see past it and it will be as though nothing happened if you get rejected. however if you don't think of the possibilites. raverboy

we're not really 'close' but kinda friends. i've told other people how i feel and somehow she found out. she hasn't said anything, but i think it makes her feel awkward when i see and speak to her

Definitlely ask her our!


Because:

If she likes you back, she's probably thinking, "Yeah, so he likes me and now what? When is he going to ask me out?" (I know it's 21st century already, but some girls still shun from asking guys out.)

And the best part is, if she does not like you back NOTHING CHANGES after you ask her! She will still know you like her and be awkward when she speaks to you.


It's a no-lose situation there.

im not too sure if she likes me back. the strange thing is .... she has a twin sister who i spoke to about 6 months ago and she said she wanted me to be here sisters bf. i dont know if she was just being friendly or if she meant it. personally, i don't think she likes me.

Oops, I think I edited while you were replying.

if i did ask her out and got rejected, i thin it would change the way we see each other - as friends. i fear she will think im strange.

[IceQueen]

I don't see the difference. Effectively, that already happened: she already feels awkwardness around you. She already knows how you feel about her, so it has already changed the way she sees you.

[boyo]

is that a good thing?

[IceQueen]

Yes. Like I said, it's a no-lose situation.

[Illusional]

yeah, if she already has an idea, might as well pursue it because the cat is already out the bag. raverboy

Well, that's why one should have several girls in mind - it's a win-win situation...LOL.

[boyo]

thanks for all the help people.

Go for it champion. You'll regret it forever. As Ice said, she may be waiting for you to ask her out.

Stay strong, and get back up if she says she isn't interested.
