Subtlety letting him know...

[Smiley stagehand]

So this guy I like. I want to let him know that I like him, but I don't want to straight out say it because I don't want him to think I'm crazy (well, more so than my regular crazy) and I know guys have different ideas of subtle than girls. Time is kinda of the essence, seeing as I'm not sure I'll keep seeing him once the school year starts (it's kinda complicated.) So how can I let him know I like him? We already have a fair amount of physical contact (we dance together and stuff.)
So yeah, thanks!
:wub: :what: :yes: :what: :wub:

How about you suggest you both go to a cafe or something after one of your dances? Spend some more time together and you making all these suggestions might give him the idea that you like him. However, it might just make him confused as to what you want. In my opinion the best option is to just make it clear that you like him, that way no one misinterprets and you both understand. I don't think it'll make him think you're crazy, just don't be clingy and overprotective and things should flow well, if he feels the same way that is. You just have to take that chance.

Us guys are idiots. He probably has no clue that you have feelings for him. The best approach might just be saying that you like him! If you guys are good friends then he'd probably find it cute, not weird.

So true. Sometime idk how we even function lol he probably already thinks you're a super awesome girl since you hang out all the time and stuff so I think you'd be safe if you told him.

Since you want to be subtle...just try being more physical with him. Try holding onto his arm when you guys walk together, or go for his hand. Hug him a lot. Give him cheek kisses. Don't rape him, but give him more physical contact than a normal friend would get. You do NOT want to get friend zoned.

This.

Just tell him. So many girls I know want to be subtle, but trust me if you ask a guy who likes you out you will make him SO happy.

This, this, this. Coming from a guy, you have NO clue how true this is.

If you don't want to tell him the best suggestion I have is the cinema, that way if he returns your feelings he'll have plenty of opportunity to kiss you and make a move, but if he doesn't then you can just spend time together no awkward conversations.

DON'T ask him out! It's emasculating lol at least I would feel like a noob if a girl asked me out because I couldn't.

I agree, dont ask him out! But tell him your feelings for him.. But uh.. Make sure its in a way where he can respond to it. 3 times a girl has Told me her feelings and in a very random way where i cant respond to her without being awkward. DOONT do that! If that makes any sense :lol:

Just tell him, guys won't b offended or think of it as awkward,
The worst he'll do is act like u haven't said anything but he'll still b ur friend
Give it a shot

Subtlety?
Impossible.
You can't be subtle, mostly because subtlety mean 'unnoticable'
I've been 'subtlety' letting my crush know I love him for 1 friggin year.
He has yet to notice.
Don't be subtle. I'm not saying hack every computer in your school or rent planes or anything, but we guys aren't easily done in by hints.

Telling a boy he's cute or something he's done is cute is a hint ;)

Laughing at everything he says and more importantly wanting to talk to him whether in person or messaging make it seem like you enjoy talking to him and putting in effort 'other girls' wouldn't! :)

Guys are pretty clueless when we try to give subtle clues. If you don't want to say anything then you need to be way over the top with the flirtation. A lot of touching when you're together (not sexual just physical contact even when you wouldn't need to), lots of eye contact (wink at him), making sexual references/jokes during conversation, always try to be physically close to him wherever you go, dress more flirtatious than you normally would.
But honestly the best hing to do is straight out tell him. It's faster and to the point.
