I have been in love with the same girl since I first laid my eyes on her in the 7th grade. I have been falling for her more and more each day and I am now at the point that I want her to be a part of my life. I dont know exactly how to tell her that I am in love with her. We used to not like each other in person, but behind-the-scenes I still loved her. In 8th grade, I found a way to make her into my friend, and we havent really talked since and we are now in 10th grade. I have been scared for a long time about telling her that I loved her, but that is only because I am totally shy and dont know how to just talk to someone. We have the same 1st period together, which is Concert Choir. Everyday, the class has to sing a song called "My Heart Is Offered Still To You", which this irony on my part because my heart still beats for only her. I just dont know how to get myself to walk over to her and tell her, because of me being shy. I dont want to lose her, but I still dont know how to tell her I love her. :wub: :unsure: :wub: :unsure: :wub: :unsure: :wub:

Make someone else tell her for you?

Send a letter?

4 words of advice:

MAKE UP UR MIND!

 

but now for serious time:

 

Do you know anything she likes? Try to make sure you understand this person and make sure your not clouded with love...since u been in love with her before you guys were friends. If you do know her well enough, then try to get closer at a step...if your close enough then simply say I love you...but in a romantic way if she is a romantic type of girl.

.....

Uh, you'll have to overcome your shyness and approach her. It's the only way if you don't wnat to lose her, since you seem to be serious about it.

Make someone else tell her for you?

 

I'd watch out for this. Nothing against ones who've done this (I haven't), but to me it seems a little tacky. If you have one of your friends do some recon for you and find out if she likes you back before asking, go for it. But think of it this way; if someone had a crush on you, would you like to have found out from them or from somebody else who has nothing to do with your relationship though.

 

The letter idea was good, b/c it will give her time to think it over, but don't make it anonymous; that just seems frustrating.

THIS. This man speaks the truth.

If I would be you I would go out on a date with her disguised as hanging out as friends... and if the situation is right I would tell it to her but not in a too direct way since girls intend to panic in moments like that unless they are already head over heals for the guy.

 

Either way... you have to tell her.... because keeping it for so many years is kinda.... pathetic.. sorry but that is how I feel about it.

If you keep it to yourself you will ask yourself "What if?" for a very long time.

 

And I don't think that asking someone else to tell her is a good idea. Things like that should be talked about in person and maybe if she has doubt in ehr feelings for you etc. you can talk it out.

I would start out slow by hanging out with her more,such as at lunch.You could start basic conversations about what she likes,school, or when in doubt talk about the weather .By Valantines day you should know a little bit about her so you could get her a small personal gift.Once you feel comfortable enough I would ask her if she wanted to go see a movie or go out to eat.The only way you will ever know is if try right?

^ Good plan, princess!

I only get to see her during 1st period.

I'm in the same predicament. I've been in love with a girl since 6th grade, now in 9th, except she has a mildly abusive boyfriend. Do what I did. Just tell her that you like her, then in a few days, tell her that you've loved her since 7th. If she isn't taken, this should really work in your favor. My love is taken and it worked in mine, so this is guaranteed to work in yours.

And you're sure that would work?

Well you have several options left.1.Ask her if she wants to hang out after school,she is your "friend" after all.2.Invite her to visit your church.3.Or start communicating with her by texting or e-mail.I wish you the best of luck, always remember to be yourself.

Option 2 out.

I told my lady that and she took it as a major compliment and i think she might like me back (albeit a little). Granted, she's taken, so if your lady is single, and if you think that she's even a little interested in you, it'll work.

Tell her that you loved her since 7th? Be careful there; it may sound creepy if said the wrong way (a.k.a. she might take it as "I've been staring at you for three years and have been having thoughts about you ever since I met you."). I wouldn't mention this until she says that she likes you back. You could say that you've been crushing on her (or a different way of saying that), but the whole 3 years thing my be stalkeresque.

 

 

 

Option 2 out.

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

 

lol, just realized, Caius is giving dating advice!

20 seconds of courage. 20 seconds of courage. 20 seconds of courage.

You have 20 seconds of courage. Use it wisely. Walk up to her. Say hello. Ask her on a date, 20 seconds of courage.

Went to see we bought a zoo last night.
