I was wondering what peoples opinions are on telling a guy you like him. If you like a guy that you're fairly close to, do you tell him or not?

Think about it: You constantly wonder how he feels about you, right? Well, if you tell him, at least you'll know. If he likes you, that's great! But if he doesn't, at least you know so you can move on. I mean, I don't think you should tell him if you aren't at least somewhat friends with him, but since you said that you are fairly close to this guy, it would probably be okay.
MummuM answered Wednesday October 18 2006, 11:04 pm: I'd probably end up telling him how I was feeling about him. I wouldn't be able not to. I mean, what if this guy was the one for you? You'd not say anything just because you're scared of the out come? I'd totally go for it. I wouldn't want to pass up a guy, when he could be the perfect guy for me; the one I'd spend the rest of my life with. You got to at least give it a try, it could turn into something really special.

You'll never know what will happen if you don't, so just live and if anything bad happens (fight, ect) at least you wont have to live regretting not saying anything/wondering.

BitsandPieces answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 11:24 am: If your expectations are realistic and profitable then tell him. However, if you would be devastated by his rejection and think he is not interested in you, then take it slow. Once you put your heart on the line and say the words, you can't take them back. You can always say, "Hey, you are a pretty cool guy, and I'm glad we can hang out." Or whatever, just keep it no pressure, and not overly done. He will respond to you and perhaps give you a clue as to how to proceed from there. [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
charmed3fanatic answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 11:20 am: tell him.. because if you don't then you will never find out if he feels the same way.. and if he doesn't then it should still be okay just tell him that you just wanted to know how he felt about it.. and that you wouldn't want anything to jepordize your friendship.. and that if he doesn't feel the same way then it's still cool [ charmed3fanatic's advice column | Ask charmed3fanatic A Question ]
Xenolan answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 10:21 am: It depends on whether it's worth risking the friendship. Usually it is, but if said guy has made it clear that he thinks of you as no more than a friend, it's probably best for all concerned to get over any other feelings. Otherwise, I'd say go for it - the best kinds of romantic relationships are also friendly ones. [ Xenolan's advice column | Ask Xenolan A Question ]
