another question...
Posted: 4/13/2004 5:54:47 PM
Is it wrong to tell someone how you feel about them too soon.. Or should you just keep quiet and hopefully things work out?? Like, do people actually just fall for eachother anymore or what??? I guess what I'm asking is if you find someone and you really do like them, how long should you wait untill you tell them how you feel, should you ever???

you might want to change your messaging restrictions + username or you will never get any messages

So many people don't READ the blurb at the top, and proceed to check off everything. You have to ONLY check off the types that you DON'T want messaging you. That way, you don't get emails from people who, for example only want to hang-out...and you want dating or long-term.

It largely depends on the individual. Keeping quiet isn't the answer either - what if they like you as well...and then you never say how you feel, they might get tired of waiting, or think you're not interested in them in that way. You have to play it by ear. Listen to her. How she talks to you, answers questions, and responds to you. You will get feedback that can point to whether she cares for you in that way or not. Just be patient.

I say take the chance and tell them a.s.a.p....... You may never get the chance again, life changes so fast from one minute to the next. With my luck, if I waited, I would get hit by a truck and die and they never would have known........!

I truly believe love is easy for some ppl and very difficult for others. Timing is always important. Too late and she may have moved on. Too soon and you look like the desperate stalker type. Follow your heart but think with your head, if the time feels right go for it.

Depends on the intensity of the people involved. I'd also add that it depends on the feedback and clues you're getting from the other person. Someone wanting just casual chat and friendship may feel broadsided by a runaway freight train if you signalling intense romantic feelings

interesting question, with many possible answers and scenarios.

agrees with onchris

trust me man what he /she has said is absolutly true

if you told them fast that u do care about them , u might look like a desprate and the girl dosent like that , and some girls they might use that to use you , because they kwno that you like them , and if you wait for soo long , the girl might find her another guy to go out with , you never know how the girl thinks , so you have to decide if your going to tell her or not , and remeber , ur brain comes first then your heart so think and hit at the right time , other than that i cant tell you anything , try to test her by simple jokes if she cares about you , simple jokes and see her reaction and the way she looks at you , if she gets mad then tell her it;s just a joke AND NEVER REPEAT IT , if she gets shy then uh she dosent knwo , if she gets interested and you know what i mean , then she is and u can hit it at that time , some girls this works with them , others i dont know but u might try your luck man , GOOD LUCK :)

its best to keep quite for a while even if you think they feel the same. If you later find out your wrong saying how you feel early could put too much pressure on your partner and ruin the relationship.

Just tell the person how you feel. If you keep quiet, they will not know and will move on to someone else.

I think the person should be told how you feel. How do you expect anything to advance if you keep your feelings to yourself?
