if youre afraid of getting hurt.. and you think that person you have feelings for will just hurt you.. then dont tell him what you feel. Some guys become conceited after knowing a girl likes/loves them. But if you think things have been fine with the two of you.. my advice is tell him during a deep conversation.. straight forward.

Proverbs 4:23 says, “Guard your heart, for from it flows the springs of life.”
I remember talking to my pastor as a new believer, wondering why everyone always talked about “guarding your heart.” This was an intriguing phrase to me. I didn’t know why it mattered to anyone if I was or wasn’t “guarding my heart.” I’d already survived several broken romances by the time I became a Christian, so I wasn’t concerned about handing my heart to someone new. I was a seasoned dating veteran. But my pastor wisely pointed out that with each dashed relationship, I was dinging my heart. By the time I got married, I would be handing my husband a fairly scarred, dented heart, complete with the bitter memories of how each injury occurred. This was his elementary advice for a new convert, but there was still much more for me to learn.
Sometime later, I actually noticed that phrase in the Bible: “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7 ESV, emphasis added). Backing up one sentence, I read: “The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” Fact one: The Lord is at hand. Fact two: Prayer, supplication, and thanksgiving are the ways to let our requests be known to God, who is at hand. Fact three: Because we’ve made our requests to a Lord who is at hand, we can know peace. Fact four: Peace guards our hearts in Christ Jesus, who is at hand and has heard our requests.
Guard your heart - and your feelings won't be hurt. *wink*

You have to be willing to take a risk. Most people generally are nice.
Unless this person is a cruel individual go ahead and take the risk and be willing to get your feelings hurt. Not knowing is more stressful than getting hurt. You can get over being hurt, but you can't get over keeping yourself on edge on a daily basis.

Thats all part of the experience, those worth fighting for are worth some pain along the way.

If they care for your feelings at all, they won't hurt you no matter what you tell them.
