A male reader, anonymous, writes (2 June 2009):

personally, I think u shud just tell that person how u feel. whats the worse they can say?, 'oh, well I don't feel the same', or maybe, they could say, 'yeah I'm starting to like u 2 what do u think we shud do about it?'

If u tell them and they say 'no' then the gosip will go around for like a couple of days, maybe a week. Nothing lasts for ever!

If they say 'yes' then ur in there heading towards a relationship!

Good luck

First off, it all depends whether or not you should tell them. There are so many variables to whether or not you should tell a person you love them. For example, does this other person already have a significant other which may lead to endangering yourself if you actually admitted your true feelings?

It's vital that you understand the consequences before you admit to your true feelings. Consider writing a pro/con list before you act.

What is the worst possible scenario? What is the best possible scenario? Can you handle the potential worst outcome? Would you regret it if you never told them? Could you continue dealing with this regret? These are all questions you should consider asking yourself before coming to a decision.

There are many ways to tell a person you love them. That's the easy part. Consider a letter or face-to-face.

No matter how old you are, this is a difficult and very real dilemma that many people face on a daily basis. You are not alone. If worse comes to worse and you cannot cope with your feelings, I recommend visiting a counselor to help you decide.

Undisclosed agony auntYou don't. You keep it inside.

Don't fool yourself. It's killing you, not because you want to give your love to her, but because you crave her love in return. If you think - rather you know - the other person doesn't love you back, you don't tell them.

Telling her will hurt more.

Love is meant to be two way. You know you aren't going to get it back from her. Consider the consequences of putting your heart out there and it doesn't come back to you.

You will have a lot of people you will find attractive in different ways. Just be careful with whom you share your heart with. Be selective. That way, you'll take care of yourself.

Easy just walk up to them and say "I love you." Then you walk away feeling like a fool. Why tell someone who doesn't love you that you love them? Why not leave it and wait for that special someone.

It depends on ur situation u know if that person if ur bf or gf or if that person is just ur friend.

Usually it's better to just put it out there but you're young you know u probably just have a crush on them. Love can't be undestood at such a young age. You could write it out or just simply tell the person that you think ur feelings might be more than just a friendship or past like.

But don't be surprised if she doesn't feel the same way like i said ur young ull meet other girls and don't have sex.

hope it helps.
