I posted this in another forum but it wasn't getting much action. I posted it in here as a guest, but I just registered to get it in the forum faster. I'm not sure whether or not to tell a guy in my class that I like him alot and would like to get to know him better. We have been in several classes together and get along wonderfully. I am moving away about a month or two after our upcoming college graduation. It wasn't until recently that I realized just how attracted I was to this guy. It's been a long time since I felt this way about anybody. He makes me laugh and I can't help but smile when I'm around him. He truly is a nice guy. I wish that I had figured out that I liked him much earlier. I had a suspicion that he felt the same way about me months ago, but I convinced myself I was wrong. In retrospect, I realize that he threw out a bunch of signs that I failed to see. The reason that I am hesitating is because I don't know how he would react. He has never said in words how he feels, so I cannot feel totally sure that he feels the same as I. Though, other women tell me that a woman knows when a man is attracted to her. This guy was so nice to me in the past, but I guess I was blind. I don't want to deal with rejection (if that happened). It would be sad. I am only moving a few hours away and am not tied down or committed to any one place. I am moving because I had gotten a bit tired of my current city and wanted a change of scenery. I will still visit and sometimes be around this area due to family. So I don't think location is that big of a problem. A few times it has felt like he wanted to say something to me, about what I don't know. I used to think that he would say something at the end of the semester, but now I don't know. It's too bad, because I really like him and I feel he really likes me. By now I would hope that he knows how I feel about him, but maybe he does not know. Hopefully he will say something, because I don't think that I am brave enough to do that.

Tell him how you feel. Rejection is hard, but it seems better to me than the proverbial "nothing ventured, nothing gained." At your age (college aged) I felt as you do...scared. Age truly does give you wisdom (or maybe it gives you balls) and I wouldn't think of letting a possible connection go without making my feelings known. A long distance relationship appears hard to me but it doesn't sound so "long" from your post and you don't mention (or perhaps know) his future plans.

 

I'm so glad to be in my forties and know exactly what I want, Life is so much easier.
