Question - (10 December 2007) 6 Answers - (Newest, 12 December 2007)
A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

i am head over heels in love with someone. i can tell because whenever i am with her, i am happy. i love talking with her, sitting around watching a movie or juct about doing anything with her...yes even going shopping. The problem is that we are just friends right now, and i cannot seem to get the nerve to start a romantic relationship with her...i want to so bad, but i don't know how. I am 95% sure she feels the same way about me. I don't know what i should do. Do i tell her how i feel about her, or lean over to kiss her or what...i don't want to blow it.

Go for it man. You have to take the chance. I'm sure you have wasted many sleepless hours thinking about her and whether you should tell her. If it one thing I have learned man it is that regret is a terrible feeling. You have to risk it all and tell her how you feel. I've done it a few times and they aren't always pretty results, but if it works for you then you have a best friend and girlfriend all wrapped into one person and that is a dream come true. If she doesn't feel the same way and she's a really good person she will understand and find a way for the friendship to continue.

Good luck man.

... maybe she feels the same and doesn't really know how to approach the subject. If it was me, I'd appreciate my friend leaning in for the kiss.. in a public place maybe, so I wasn't under the pressure of going straight down the whole "lets have sex now" route. Don't make her go too far too soon :)

Are you sure she feels the same way about you too?

Most of the time if a girl has gotten close to a guy as a "friend" then she either feels like she's got no shot with him or else she's not gonna give him a shot. It's usually guys that have a habit of spending months moving closer in the "friend" format while they're still trying to make it sexual eventually.

Samutsen agony auntIf I were you I would just send her a rose and a letter, telling her how much you love her. Actually why dont you write to her exactly what you posted here. It is very nice, sympathetic.

And it is easier for you. I am sure, a girl who also enjoys being with you, doing things with you this much, is not uninterested in you.

Worth trying, I am certain she will reciprocate.

Hey hun

Wow you sound like you're really into this girl. That's great. If you really think that she feels the same way then all you gotta do is pluck up the courage and tell her how you feel. If she likes you back, she's gonna be over the moon. Once you've both sat down and talked over your feelings for one another. Just take it from there. If you get the answers you're looking for, what happens next in your relationship will just happen naturally.

Good luck hun!

Hope you get everything you want!
