" i like you "
is there any good way to tell someone you like them without straight up saying i like you? i think it would just be random, and i'm 18 and have never told ANYONE ive liked them before but i've decided i need to tell this boy. i've liked him for three years now !! its a confusing situation but i just dont want to be random about it so id like to know how people have told others they've liked them, and how it worked out :) thanks!

Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Oh, I know what you mean, it does seem a bit awkward and random to say. But who cares?!!? Life is awkward and random! This is what I do. If you and this boy are talking or something and you are semi-alone or alone, then you say, "Hey can I tell you something? It's kind of weird so don't get freaked out okay?" By this time the guy is very curious to hear what you have to say haha. So you say, "Yeah I kind of life you..." When I said this, the boy totally went bright pink and says "REALLY?!" hahaha. It was cute. Anyways, I say you just go tell him. If he doesn't like you too, you'll be fine. Best of luck to yah! :D <3

Coming from a guy, maybe this will help you decide how to go about this.
Guys HATE when girls are secretive and mysterious about things like this. Sure, some like it because it means there's a "chase", but most guys would rather a girl just flat out said "I like you", because playing mind games may just piss them off or confuse them.
So you'll have the best chance of some reciprocation if you just flat out tell him. So what if he doesn't like you back? So what if it's embarrassing? If you never step out of your comfort zone, you'll never get anywhere in life. It has to start somewhere ;]

Hey,
first off, I would like to thank you so much for even considering being the first to make a move towards a guy. Girls just don't do it, and it's unfair.
But to answer your question:
Don't try! There is no safe way to 'tell' a guy you like him.
How well do you know him? You say you've been onto him for 3 years... what kind of relation do you have with him? Please tell me you're not his "friend".
I agree that he needs to find out that you like him, because if he doesn't find out soon, he will be gone while you are sleeping, dreaming about telling him.
What I disagree with is the word "tell". It is blunt, and really should only ever be used when the other person already knows, or suspects what they are being told. The exception to this is when people have been deceived, and are being "informed" of how they really stand.
So if we rule out telling, we have every English teacher's favourite word: "showing".
Flirt with him.
(being careful not to overdo it and become stalkerlike) I'm not exactly the king of flirt myself, so I will leave it up to the thousands of questions on flirting that have already been answered to give you advice on that one.
In this case flirting is like a game of scrabble. As you lay out your innocent words, like "nice" "haircut" "would" "you" "care" "to" "dance", and add to your score, he will hopefully start to notice your presence, just how interesting you are, and if he's clever, he'll know you want him to dance.
Just once more I'll say: If you are too direct about things, there is an immediacy and requirement to respond, sometimes in unpredictable and unfavourable ways (and also plenty of players willing to "reciprocate and manipulate"), yet if you tangibly hint at things, and wait until he is used to the idea, perhaps even wishing something would happen between you, and then play the card of directness, then you are much more likely to achieve a positive response. At the same time, you'll elude a lot of players, who are just in for the quick-card.
If you've already been flirting, and it just doesn't seem to be going anywhere, try a review of your flirting techniques, take it further, or if you think it's time, play you card simple. Get him alone, say "(name), I want you to know. I like you." best not to expect an instant answer.
Good luck,
Hope he reciprocates

Honestly, I've never said "I like you" to a Guy before not being the first to say it anyway.
Sometimes people who like each other start off with a casual conversation and then just move towards the subject by saying something like "There is something I've been wanting to tell you for awhile now I just wanted you to know that I have strong feelings for you" or sometimes people just come flat out and say it in a note or something but thats when it sometimes becomes an awkward situation. If you know the person socially then I would suggest saying what I put first, and then if you feel comfortable enough ask him/her how they feel about you. ;)
Good Luck!
