I'm such a coward!

Argh I'm such a coward! OK so I was walking to school, and on the way up I saw this guy Matt, who I've had a Massive crush on for the past 6 months - and seriously, my knees went all shaky and I thought I was going to pass out! Argh I hate that he has this effect on me! I'm good mates with him, but I don't think he knows just how much I love him :frown: and because we're such good mates I can't bring myself to tell him. But this morning was the perfect opportunity just to talk, say hi and stuff - because we're in different years and don't get to talk that much at school. But I was just too scared to say hi! Argh I hate that he has this kind of control over me and doesn't even know it! :frown: Any advice?

You're mates with him, but you're scared to say 'hi' to him?

I'd like a friend I don't have to communicate to.

Yeah we're mates - we obviously say hi and chat of course but it's when I see him unexpectedly like this morning - I felt really shaky and I'm sure I went bright red - I find it so hard to chat with him because I love him so much and can't do anything about it

hmm, love is a strong word, you fancy him. You only love someone if you're willing to sacrifice everything for them. :smile:
how old are you?

if your good mates already start spending some time with him. eat your lunch with him or whatever, help him or get him to help you with work etc, and one saturday randomly phone him up and say youre bored and ask him if he would like to go watch a film with you. chances are he will say yes.
I'm 17, he's 18 - I don't think I just fancy him - I know people are gonna say there's no way I can love him if he doesn't like me back, but I've liked him to this extent for 7 months now, and I can't stop thinking about him. I get flushed whenever we speak, I can't sleep properly for thinking about him, and as said above I feel weak and dizzy when I see him unexpectedly. And I get butterflies when he smiles at me. It's a horrid feeling - I feel down and depressed if I don't see him in a day, and if I do see / speak to him, I always get so happy, and my friends can all tell a big change in my mood after we talk. I dunno how to explain it, he just makes me feel happy.
Whoops there goes my anonymity! :rolleyes: :redface:

I should also add that I've had stupid girly crushes in the past - many - and I know this is different to those.
