I like him but I can't approach him.


Question Posted Saturday June 30 2012, 11:43 am

Hello, I'm a 20 year old girl and i have never believed in love. Lately, there's this guy in my college I've been crushing on, and it's the first time I've ever experienced something like this. I don't know what to call it but I always want to see him and I like everything about him even though I know some of his traits are funny to like.

The thing is; I'm not sure about myself. I can't talk to him because his girlfriend used to be a friend of mine but we ended up awkwardly not being friends because of him, though we never talked about it. But rumors sprang in campus that I like him and now he thinks he's all that, and I don't want to be the girl who liked him unrequited-ly so he thinks I'd be easy to get. That's why I can't approach him first, but I don't want him to slip away. He's broken up with that girl now and I really, really am interested in him. I don't think I can get over it now, and it's the first time I confessed this to anyone, even myself. My friends don't know and I won't tell them either because I'm usually the sane, no-shit brains among them and I'm feeling crazy in the head those days because of him.

Please help me, what should I do?

If he is not with that girl anymore then you shouldn't worry about her. I suppose whether I would approach it or not depends on when they broke up. If they recently split I'd give it a little more time before I jump the bandwagon.

Just start with small talk, If you see him you could exchange a smile. Drop hints

If he is interested in you then sooner or later I'm sure he will approach it. If not then just go up too him and say "Hi" ask him how he's doing, what's up that you like his shirt or something. If you don't say anything at all then yes, you could end up missing out on an opportunity. Small talk like you would anyone else.

It may be awkward to tell him how you feel, just do so. At least he is informed. If he likes you, let him do ways to show you that he is worthy to have you. Not because you are brave to tell him about it means you're easy to get. But be ready for the consequences. I am pretty sure that others will make it hard on you. Prepare for all the backstabber and gossips about you.

You're still young and has a lot of things to do and explore.Once you graduated, you would still meet a lot of people. I am hoping that if he would be your man, he will stick with you till the end.

There is a saying, that whatever you love, let it go, if it comes back to you, then its yours, but if it doesnt, it wasnt yours in the first place. Apply this to your situation. As difficult as it may sound, let this guy go. If he's yours, he'll go through the trouble of finding you and claiming you.
