1. Finally Find out
Don't you want to know whether your crush feels the same way about you? If he does, that's fantastic! You can begin your relationship, and live happily ever after. If he's not interested in you, then you can move on, and stop wasting your time on someone who doesn't appreciate you. One of the biggest reasons why you should tell your crush how you feel is so you can figure out if you're going to end up in a relationship with him or not.
2. Open for Others
If you're unsure about how your crush feels, and another hot guy asks you out, you might turn him down. You don't want to reject an awesome guy, all because you want to keep your options open in case your crush likes you back. It's better to know right away, so that you can make informed decisions about other men.
Frequently asked questions
3. Unhealthy to Hold Back
Even if you're good at keeping secrets, it's not a fun thing to do. Everyone wants to share their feelings, even if they're scared to do so. It's healthier to let others know how you feel, instead of keeping your feelings bottled up inside.
4. Proud of Your Performance
Despite the outcome of your actions, you'll be proud of yourself for coming clean to your crush. It's scary to tell someone how you feel. Doing so requires bravery. If you manage to admit your feelings, then you should reward yourself with some new clothes or a video game, because you did what most people are too terrified to do.
5. Potential Practice
If he turns you down, it's okay. Telling him how you feel was just practice for when you have to tell the next guy how you feel. There's nothing wrong with a bit of preparation. Also, don't assume that you'll never find another guy as awesome as your current crush. The world is filled with people. It's only a matter of time before you meet someone else you're interested in dating.
6. What's the Worst?
Even if your crush turns you down, he should take your feelings as a compliment. Who doesn't like being told that they're desirable? If he makes fun of you for how you feel, then he's not the type of guy you want in your life, anyway.
7. Risk and Reward
Sure, it's risky to tell your crush that you like him, but think about what the confession could lead to. You might end up dating him, falling in love, and having babies. If you do, it'll all be thanks to you and your bravery. It's a chance you have to take.
If you think that your crush might like you as much as you like him, then ask him out. You could end up with a new boyfriend by the end of the week. Are you crushing on someone that may or may not feel the same about you?

Liviadamn: I told my crush how I feel and he rejected me.. I've liking him for almost 6 years now, and even if he turned me down I just can't help thinking about him. And it hurts a lot. Anyway, great post. Maybe I shoul just move on. I should just try to conceal my feelings towards him, but it's kind of hard...
Carolyn: My Crush doesnt have feelings for me..He doesnt even notices Me :(
Beck: My crush told me he thought was hot and that he's was interested in me now we are boyfriend and girlfriend :D
Ginakenny: I told him out and he said his busy working weekends ..... It became awkward afterward at least I know now
JustHayHay44: What if he says he doesn't like me back? What if he hates me for coming clean?
Wanda: Timing is definitely crucial. Better late than never so even if you are rejected at least you know it wasn't because you waited so long. My crush from last fall got into a relationship this past summer and sad part is I had a feeling he liked me back. He had the courage to speak to me once and looked at me often, as did I. But our shyness got the best of us. My friend still bashes me for not just going for it.
Margareta: I will truly never be able to tell him how I feel. He may not even like me as a person, or maybe I'm reading him wrong. Two years I've liked him. We both take theatre together, and it sit two lines away. My best friend always calls me "Scary Australian" or "the Dark One, Fears Nothing" but by God I'm so scared of talking or even approaching this guy. I totally crumple to bits around him. The other day I embarrassed myself right in front of him and it was awful. That's all I can say.
Peyton: Worst is the awkward tension when you get back to school and see each other when he found out and rejected you.
Emi: sigh i dont plan to tell him now. but last 2 days waa his birthday and i gave him a gift and wrote 4 him a letter. and he said thank you. but i asked for more in the letter i said "can we go back to last time" he doesnt seem to want it or maybe his busy..sigh i just so sad. i dunno if i shld stop trying or keep going. :/
