There is this girl I have known since about 3rd grade whom i've always adored (i've had a crush ever since I can remember first seeing her.) She never really talked much with me, but then again, I never really tried to start a conversation. I heard rumors in 8th grade of something about the girl, and I hoped it wasn't true. I confronted her about it, and she told me it was true. She didn't want me to tell ANYONE. And I, just to please her, even though i'm not religious whatsoever, I said "I sware to God, ****, I will not tell anyone... they'd have to put a gun to my head to hear it from me..." Then, I was confronted by two other girls whom i'd known just as long as the girl I had secretly liked all along. They gave me a hard time for liking the girl, and I ended up some how blurting out the scret I swore I would never tell. I hate to say this, but, at the time I had been just started on new medications for ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, and Tourettes (mild tiks, nothing seriosu really.) Either way, to this day (12th Grade) I still am in love with this girl. I am way to shy of a person to talk to her, I end up either IMing or Myspace messaging her anytime I want to tell her something. What should I do? This is killing me! (not really, just metaphorically, but still, i'm always thinking about her.)

 Hey,
I kinda know how you feel - being too shy to talk to someone you like... When I was in year 11 there was this guy I really liked, but I was way to shy to tell him. What I ended up doing was writing him a letter telling him how I felt. But as I was really shy, I made it an anonymous letter and I put my email at the bottom of the page (I had to create a new email account so as not to give myself away) so that if he was interested, he could email me. I stuck the letter in his locker.
Personally I think writing a love letter will be really romantic, and should grab her attention! It also allows you to put more thought and feeling into what you say.
Well, that's what I think anyway...
Whatever you decide to do, good luck!!

 I'd tell her. What can it hurt. Build strength and chat with her. I'm the same way, of course we share many of the same disorders as well.
You mentioned you have Tourettes? Those mild tics, which I have the same is a sister form of tourettes called cataplexy. It's also known as the falling down seizure disorder. When I was your age, they would show up as small tics. As I got older, they've gotten a bit worse. I've spent 20 minutes making it across a parking lot to get to my car when my legs were ready to give out. I've fallen down and have had seizures up to 10 minutes, generally at home. It's very rare, but found mainly in those with ADHD.
Good luck to you.
