i really want to tell this guy i like him. some days he acts like he likes me, and others he doesn't, so i'm not sure how he feels about me. but i have to tell him. and i can only tell him online, don't see him in person cos its break, and i dont have his phone number, only his screenname. but he's only on for like two seconds when he gets on, and i'm a real shy person. so i need something short and sweet to tell him. i'm not the type of person that i can just go up to a guy and say HEY I LIKE YOU. thanks tons. [=

i also dont want to ruin our friendship.

alright....maybe write him a note? just tell him how you feel. how soon are you getting off break?

Well telling him online would reduce the pressure. You won't be as shy. But you also won't be able to see his reaction. Is there any way you guys can hang out with a group of your friends together? That could be a good way to tell him. How close are you two as friends? In my opinion, I would just tell him how I feel.

Online it would be MUCH easier to tell him specially if your a shy person, i suggest you spit it out at ones right when he signs on wait 30 seconds and IM him just start off i really have to talk to you... then just let it flow.

i have a week and a half, and today was my first day.
i can't write him, i don't see him in school anymore, only during the play i did. =( thats why i have to IM him.



hmm, when you ask how close .. ummm on a scale of 1 - 10 close? lol.
well we only knew each other for three months, but whenever we were at play practice we always were together. lol. and then whenever we did do a few group things, our friends and us, we were always together. ummm 1-10 can i say a 9 1/2?

more comments welcomedd.

ahh i have this problem too..
well... i think telling him online would be good, just let him know you're a little shy. if he really is a friend he wont be "mean" about it.
or. like someone else said, you could write him a short note.

thankssss. i hope you conquer (probably spelled wrong?) the problem soon, too. [=

I think the guy likes you, just hang out with him and tell him in person. Things like this should be said face to face. I got really embarassed but I still got it out and now we're a bit serious.

Online is usually the worst ways to tell someone you like them. First of all, you can't see their reaction. And second of all, they might not take it too seriously. I mean, online shows a lack of personal feelings. How do I know? Because I come from a school where we supposedly "know" someone online, but not really in person. A question I want to ask is, do you mainly talk to him online or in person? When you're online, it seems easier to say something because you're away from them. But, this also makes the other person avoid the topic easier. You can tell him online, but it's always better in person.

I talk to him more in person, but I don't see him in the hallways anymore, it was just during the play I saw him, and the play is over now. =(

ah, he was just on, which he never is, so i talk about vacation.
i'm soooo shy i can'ttt. =( i mean i was about to, but he always gets off so fast.

Hint it out to him
Or make it serious, grab his attention, and tell him.
Best wishes

You say he signs on/off really fast...are you sure he doesn't just go invisible?

Never tell someone that you like them online. If the guy's a jerk, he will just go offline or simply pretend he's not there. Believe me, I have been through that when I was back in grade 9.

I can't say much because I never told a guy I liked him. Well except for that time in grade 9. Then the one now, he figured out that I liked him weeks before he forced the truth out of my best friend. Then stuff happened and whatnot, with me not knowing because my best friend didn't tell me that she told him until I read this poem out loud that was dedicated to my crush. Imagine how embarassing that was! It was in front of the entire class, too. Anywho, whenever I was confused about it, I would write a note to him. The first note, I wanted him to read it. But the second, I didn't. My friend convinced me to give it to him and whatnot.

Anyway, I won't go into detail. It depends on whether or not you want to see his reaction. So either give him a note or call him. After doing either those two or whatever you want to do, it's up to you. Please don't run away though. Don't be like me. I would run away after I got my friend to give him the note in front of me. Or if he calls after something happens, I will tell my mom to say that I'm not home. Or if I pick up, I will say I'm really busy and have to go.

Good luck. But don't rush into anything. Tell him if you think that he will stay friends with you after you tell him, in case it goes all wrong. Luckily, my crush and I are still best friends. Well, at least that's what he thinks. I don't know anymore. Meh. No point of mentioning it here since it's not my thread.

Today, for the first time ever, he IMed me first. He said yo, so I said hiya. haha. and we were typing at the same time, but his came out first, and he said, "gotta go." and i didn't see it yet, so i accidentally sent him, "i have to tell you something, but it's really hard for me." he got off, so next time he's on, i guess i'll update you guys. (=


I can't call, I don't have his number. =(
I also don't see him in school anymore, it was only during the school play I did, so I have to tell him online. Thanks for the advice, though. I appericiate it mucho. :D

Do that 3-way call thing they did in Mean Girls. If he has a girl-friend (not girlfriend) that you are a bit close to, have her do a 3-way while you listen and she ask the questions

Haha, that's a really good idea. If only I knew how to 3-way with my phone. :( Because he does have a friendgirl who I'm friends with. =o

Now I can't use that person, she can't keep secrets, spread some of mine around, so I can't do a threeway. =( yesterday I started telling him, but he had to get off.

If you don't feel comfortable telling him you like him to his face what makes you think you'll be comfortable in a full-blown relationship with him?

"I'm trying to ask people I don't really know to the movies, so I can bond more with them. Do you have the time to go?"

Then after a few times of hanging out with him, you should be closer to him, much closer. So when you feel more open with him, just tell him. "I really like you, as more than just a friend."

Ahh. I feel the same way. Like right now. Whoa. I think it`d be best to tell him like after break. In person. I think if you really want to be with this person, telling him face to face would be the best. Even though he might not feel the same way and you`ll get your heart cracked a bit, it`ll help you in the future. So. But whatever you do is you. Good Luck.

I agree with x0x_kisses about telling him after the break. Why? That way if it doesn't go well, at least you don't have him the next day or over a short period of time to recover from it.

hehe. Thanks guys. :)



It's not that, it's just that I never see him anymore in school, it only has to be online now.
Sorry, that was a little attitudish. I just had a fight with my friend, so I'm all
It's just because in my opinion, of course, the hardest part is telling somebody, and once you get through that I think you can get through most relationship problems.

you should say it in person. it will be much more meaningful to both of you, and perhaps he will even be impressed with your bravery. if you really don't see him as much, try to find out his schedule from his friends or something so you can find him. haha, that's my advice
