How to tell her? (only girls please..no offense)

there is this girl, in my building....i really like her...but, how do i tell her that?
should i? or shouldn't i?

don't know if she is seeing someone, i think she is single.. she never talks about a boyfriend (not that we talk so much) and i vaguely remember someone said she was single...

what dou you think...should i tell her i like her and risk ruining the rest of the year when she says she doesn't like me te way i like her and maybe already has a boyfriend?

it's a bit difficult since i haven't liked any girl for the last 2 years and only have bad experiences with falling in love...been hurt many times.

would be nice if you girls could give me some advice on this...

I'm not a girl, no offense.

But seriously now, just talk to her. If you don't know her well, introduce yourself properly. Maybe invite her out in a group with some people (so the focus doesn't seem so much on the two of you). Find some common ground, get to know each other, huzzah!
well ive liked someone for ages. the other day, they told me they liked me. You cant go around thinking people wont like you! I say go for it if youre feeling confident. Even if i didnt like this lad that asked, i wouldnt have blanked him!

If you think she's single then just get to know her. Talk to her and get to know her and let her know that you are a nice person :smile:
IF things are going well tell her how you feel and invite her out to see if you get on well together. Don't be shy as you'll never get anywhere if she doesnt know how you feel. Girls like honesty.
Good luck x

i've thought of that but its a bit difficult since i have no "group" ...i'm out there on my own.
we occasionally have some chat in the kitchen but for me it is just so hard to see if it is just a friendly conversation or if she does it because she likes me. (i missed out on all girl@love lessons from primairy school to now, i am a complete beginner)

No. And why only girls? I thought the problem had to do with us girls :wink:

Yep, try and get to know her without telling her how much you like her right away. That way you can find out whether you think she might like you, too etc and then you can be all open and honest. But in general, don't worry. As long as you're honest and press hard or anything, she'll apreciate you telling her :smile:
Go on the hertfordshire.

Tell her man. But i coulda sword Telford are flats, arent they? The problem is, if it doesnt work out... you'll be bumping into her every five minutes for the next year :s-smilie:
At 25 years of age, tbh I think you should know what to do, but good luck with it all... :rolleyes: anyway. :p:

'cause most boys don't know anything about love or girls so their advise wouldn't be very good 99% of the time

it would get me answers like "make her jealous by going out with her girlfriend" or "try to get her drunk and...." they say the weirdest things.

and besides that, i'm a "girly" boy, i don't get on with boys that well

Ok fair enough. I'm just a bit bitter lol b/c I tried to give someone on here advice and wanted them to get better soon, and then someone else criticised my ADVICE! :frown:

How about the traditional asking her out to the cinema/meal/bowling/whatever else you can think of and making it just you and her?

Oh yeah he's 25... What age is this girl? If she's under 20 she might not be interested. :smile:

she's 19 i think...but if any girl under 20 would not be interested in me because i am 25 then these next 3 years on campus will be pretty difficult :frown:

Well most girls would want an older boyfriend.. but for me that would be 22 max. or so.. :smile: You might be a bit too mature.

Yes of course, but she doesn't know that. :smile: You don't know her that well. She might be the type that parties all night long and flirts with lots of guys. Maybe you're the same, I don't know you, but 25 seems 'wiser' than that. :wink: If you're looking for a steady relationship it's best to stay around your own age anyway, I would think.

Okay asgardrune, Sorry about yesterday! :smile:

Anyway, best thing to do is to approach the girl and start a conversation and get to know what she likes/dislikes, her hobbies, etc.
Become friends, and thereof, your on better grounds to propose etc

hm no she isn't the usual 19 year old "i party every night" girl...that's for sure...even i (!) can see that. she act's more mature than 19 so thats good
