Advice needed asap...should I tell crush I like him b4 he goes to college?

Question

I've asked many questions about my crush in the past, and from the answers I've received, it seems like there is a pretty good chance that he likes me back. Problem is that he is leaving for college in 9 days. I know I will definitely be seeing him on Sunday, when we go out to dinner with alllll of our other coworkers, but I'm afraid that might be the last time I see him until he comes home when classes aren't in session. He's pretty shy, as am I, so he hasn't said anything to me. So I'm trying to figure out if/ when I should tell him that I like him instead of waiting for him. I don't want to do it at the dinner, cuz we are gonna be with 20 of our coworkers that have no idea that I like him. Would it be really lame for me to tell him online? Everytime I think about telling him in person, I get too nervous and am too afraid to tell him face to face. I was thinking of maybe telling him tonite online, but I dunno. Or should I not say anything at all? I think I'd regret that tho. help!

And how exactly could I tell him how I feel, without flat out saying "I like you"? I've never done this before, so any advice would be really helpful! Thanks!

Answer 1

Best to tell him in person. Even at a dinner you can find a moment or two to be with him, and speak softly and directly to him.
-And yes, tell him that you like him. Give him your address, or phone number, or your email address and ask him if he will write or call you while he's at college. Ask him if he will give you his address, phone / email, so you may write to him.

More hearts have been broken because someone didn't speak up, than have all the hearts wounded by a word.

The worst that can happen is embarassment. The best is discovering a friend.
