Hi,

I have always like this guy and he's going overseas so I decided to let him know of my feelings. I said I've always cared for him and that I guess he's my only dream that I could never have. But I guess he hasn't interpreted it well or didn't exactly understand what I meant. He replied to me saying Thank you and let's keep in touch.

Do you think I should have explicitly tell him I love him to make it clearer coz the way I interpreted his reply is he thought of the message as a friendly message only. Or am I the one not interpreting his reply clearly?

Thanks and hoping for immediate response.

Dazzerg agony auntWell to be a judge of the message I would need to see the message itself. He may have got the right message but not wanted to have committed with going abroad. Is he going abroad for a long time? If that is so then it is possible that he does not feel able to committ to you.

However i do feel directness is always the best solution in these situations. People often do not read between the lines and it is possible he has taken it as a friendly message depending on what you said. Good luck with this.

Hi there

Yes it seems to me his reply was meant to be in a friendly friend way only. But I can't be sure whether or not, he knew what you meant but only feels for u as a friend so thats what he meant in his message, or if he did misinterperate and thought he was agreeing with u in his reply, yety he still could have those deeper feelings.

Should you tell him that you love him to make it clearer? Well yes if you want him to know! I can understand that it is important to tell someone how you feel, even if they cant return those feelings, justk nowing that u told them and gave it a shot is some feelings dealt with. I say try and make it clearer becasue otherwise u will forever be wondeirng if he felt the same way but didnt know if thats what u meant.

Do you know if he likes you or not? If you know he doesn't like you in the saem way as you like him, then he is messing you around. You told him you really like him. He is going away. Is he ever coming back? If not, he is taking advantage of the fact you really like him. You will keep in touch with him and never let go of your feelings for him. Find someone else if you know he is never coming back. If he is, there may be a chance of you two getting together when he does. But, whatever you do, NEVER tell him you love him until you have been with him for several months! He will run a mile straight away!
