Expressing your love for someone might make anyone nervous, but think about how happy you will feel once your hidden love is revealed. If you want to express your love to someone without frightening them or appearing too sudden, you need to plan ahead. Choose a romantic spot, and make sure you know what you're going to say. After that, get ready to feel the beauty of the turmoil of love. Worst case scenario, you will feel relieved that you no longer have to hide your feelings.
Step
Part 1 of 3: Considering the Situation
Step 1. Think again
Gather your rationality and take this situation into account from all sides. Consider your relationship with the person, and try to predict their reaction. Ask yourself if there is a realistic chance he will love you back. If so, you just need to find the best approach. If not, you should tread with caution.
Maybe you're in love with a friend, but aren't sure if he or she loves you too. You should really think about whether your confession will affect the friendship. Falling in love with a friend is beautiful, when he reciprocates your feelings
Step 2. Make sure that you are serious
If you've never been in love, the implications of this sentence may be difficult to understand. There are many types of love, such as friendship love, familial love, and romantic love. If you really love him as a boy and a girl, you have to convey it. However, you should also consider the impact of the words you say.
The meaning of love is not always the same for everyone. There are those who say that young people tend to be unable to distinguish "true love" from more superficial attraction or "monkey love." Meanwhile, others believe that we can feel deep and true love at any age
Step 3. Make sure your intentions are sincere
Don't say "I love you" just to get more attention from someone. Say love only if you plan to follow through on those words. Romantic love usually implies caring and attachment to someone on a certain level.
Step 4. Say it slowly
If you're not sure yet, try assessing the situation in less heavy words. Say "I like you" or "You make me happy." "I love you" is a tough sentence, but it's not the only way to show that you love someone.
- Tell him that you like something about him. Try saying "I like the way you dance" or "I like the way you think."
- Measure the response on this lighter statement. If he responds to your words and says that he also really likes you, there's a pretty good chance that your declaration of love will be accepted.
Step 5. Speak boldly
Remember that life is short and love is a valid feeling for anyone. If you love someone, there's a good chance they don't feel the same way or the love will fade over time. However, this love grows in your heart and cannot be ignored. Sometimes, the only way is to move forward even if you're scared.
Part 2 of 3: Setting the Mood
Step 1. Choose a romantic place
Try a quiet place where you can meet alone. Take him to a restaurant, to the park, or to watch the sun go down. Make sure he feels safe and comfortable.
Find a suitable place for him. Choose a place that has special meaning for both of you
Step 2. Create a special moment
The declaration of love is an important event for both people involved so it must be a special moment. You can plan it or wait for the right moment. There are many definitions of the right moment, from romantic dramatic to beautiful simplicity. Express love when you feel positive.
- You can express your love at sunset after a perfect day together, when the "you two song" is played at a dance, or when you laugh together and happily enjoy each other's company.
- Watch romantic scenes in movies and television shows for inspiration. Analyze the scene when the main character expresses his love. Understand what kind of atmosphere you want to create.
Step 3. Make sure you and him are alone
You can express your love in public if you feel it is appropriate. However, remember that he may not like being the center of attention. This is especially important if you're not sure what the reaction will be. If it's just the two of you, he'll have a chance to respond more comfortably.
Step 4. Plan well
Arrange for you to meet him in person if you've never dated before. In the end, you just have to let things run their course. However, you can set the mood to make this moment romantic and timely. Make sure you're not in a rush and know what you're going to say.
You can also express your love by letter if you can't meet him. This method is still very friendly, although a bit more abstract
Step 5. Make sure he's watching you
Don't express your love when he's paying attention, worrying about something, or getting ready to leave. Words of love will seem stronger if expressed while looking at each other. If the moment is right, you can move on easily. Sometimes, there is no "right time". Get his attention by saying, “I have something important to say.”
Part 3 of 3: Expressing Love
Step 1. Look into her eyes
When the time feels right, look him in the eye. Eye contact shows that you are sincere. Eye contact also gives an idea of how he feels when he hears your words and makes both of you feel connected.
Step 2. Say “I love you
As simple as that. If you really love him, you don't need to make excuses or add frills. However, if you wish, feel free to add some poetic spice or affirm your love. Most importantly, you must be honest and authentic. Say the words you really want to say.
- Consider telling him why you love him. Say something true, honest, and sweet. Tell her uniquely and make her feel special.
- Say it casually or seriously depending on your comfort level. Make sure he knows that you are serious.
Step 3. Kiss him
If he says "I love you too", cheer up. This is a special moment. Welcome the wave of happiness and make this moment even more beautiful. Whatever happens, this is a special moment that you will remember for years to come.
Step 4. Be patient
Give him time to digest what you are saying. In some cases, he may confess his love for you. On the other hand, if your confession comes as a surprise to him, he may have to think first. Listen and appreciate. Don't assume anything.
If he doesn't reciprocate your feelings, that's okay. You may be hurt, but don't be angry. Accept the answer
Step 5. Be proud of yourself
Whatever the response, you should be proud that you expressed your feelings. Declaration of love requires great courage. Whatever the answer, the important thing is that he knows.
Tips
- Be patient and respect him. If he needs time to think, give him time. You can't force love.
- If you're too shy, try writing a love letter. Love through writing will be easier to convey.
- Don't assume the worst. If he doesn't feel the same way, don't assume that your friendship with him will be broken or that you don't need to try again.
- Practice what you will say in the mirror. That way, you can feel the sensation when the words come out of your mouth.
- Plan ahead. Think about what you would say, and try to imagine your reaction if he accepted or refused.
- Express love with confidence. Confidence will make him sure of your feelings.
