How To Tell Your Crush You Like Them

How To Tell Your Crush You Like Them

So, I’ve been doing a lot of relationship videos and I’ve been asked multiple times to do one on how to tell your crush you like them. I thought something like this was simple but when I asked my friends about this, some said it’s complicated and they said “What if I’m shy? How do I proceed?” And this got me thinking. You’re right. There’s always more than one way to do something. So instead of just giving you one approach to do it. I’m going to give you 10 ways to do it. So, here’s 10 ways on how to tell your crush you like them. Just in case if the first 3 doesn’t work for you.

1. Plan a date

There’s nothing wrong with planning things out. Plan out the day when you want to say it. Plan out the location of where you want to say it and such. This will give you confidence ahead of time and help you prepare yourself for your big day. In addition, you are holding yourself accountable. If you like someone, you don’t want to push it off and find excuses like, “Oh I’m busy this week, I’ll ask her next week.” Then you’ll just drag it on and on and then you’ll regret it when you see your crush mingling with someone else. So just do it and that someone else could be you. If you’re interested, here are 20 cheap date ideas.

2. Be confident

I know I say confident a lot, but how do you actually be confident? Good question. When you are going to tell your crush you like them, say it clearly to them. Don’t hesitate or use that feeble voice. Look them straight in their eyes and tell them you like them. Also, make sure there’s no other distraction around you so the person can hear you. This might take some time to practice so try practicing with a mirror. Look right at the mirror into your eyes and tell yourself, “I like you.” You bet it’ll say it right back to you.

3. Use some cheesy pick-up lines

The cheesier the better. You just want to lighten up the mood so you get your laughter and smile in so you can say “I like you.” Make it fun and make it feel like you want to push the boundaries beyond friends but not to the point where you break it. Here, let me give you a few examples. “Hey, you’re pretty and I’m cute. Together we would be Pretty Cute.” Or “Hey, feel my shirt. You know what it’s made of? Boyfriend material.”

4. Make it stress-free

You want to be comfortable when you’re telling your crush you like them. And you also want the other person to feel comfortable when you’re saying it to them. Don’t make them respond to you immediately. They have to decide too. But be ready for the worst- and best-case scenario. If they don’t like you, it’s okay. It’s only awkward, if one of you guys make it awkward. If they feel differently about you, it’s okay. Sometimes it’s not meant to be so don’t get upset, frustrated, or mad because you’ll eventually find someone else. And it doesn’t hurt to have a friend.

5. It doesn’t have to be in person

Some people will tell you that you have to do it in person to make it personable. It’s not always the case. This also goes back to making it stress-free. You can let the person know however you want whether it’s through text, phone call, letter, email, social media, it doesn’t matter as long as you can communicate your feels across. There’s not a right or wrong way to tell someone how you feel about them and you shouldn’t let that stop you. Plus, I just think that if you let them know using this method, it’ll give them time to think about it so their response will be more meaningful.

6. Get your crush to hang out with you one-on-one

If you like your crush, you’ll eventually hang out together in the future, if everything goes right. So why not start hanging out with them, one-on-one. The more time you guys spend together and talk, it’s more likely that they’ll be interested in you as a friend or a partner. But at this point you don’t know so that’s when you confess to your crush during your casual outings. But do bond over something first, like music, food, hiking, or over your favorite games. This way things are super chill and causal. And remember, it’s only awkward if one of you guys are awkward about it.

7. Use a friend

This is probably an elementary school tactic but it still works no matter how old you are. So, you start by telling your friends that you like your crush and have them spread the rumor around or tell your crush, directly. Once your crush gets the message, they could response in either 3 ways: positively, negatively, or neutral. Once you gather all your intel, you then proceed to tell your crush directly, how you feel about them. So, if it’s a positive response, then you’re in the clear and you can easily land your, “I like you,” when you get a chance to say it. If it’s neutral and they don’t response at all, they are probably in shocked like, “wow this person actually likes me.” In that case, you just need to take your time with them and let the idea soak in for a while. If it’s a negative response, then you’ll really have to use good judgement on this because there might be some who are in denial, some who don’t want to tell their friends or some rando about their feelings, and some who flat out just dislike you. A negative response is not always a bad thing. You’ll just have to work a little harder to get your feels across.

8. Be creative

Unlock your creative side. Here are a few examples. You can say it with food such as spelling, “I like you,” with cookie dough or those alphabet soups or even making your own heart shape pizza. Another creative way could be doing a scavenger hunt. They could be looking for letters or words or you. You know these are just ideas. Then you have your basic poem or song confessions. You get the idea. Your imagination is just at your finger tips

9. Start by showing some signs that you’re interested

If you’ve subscribed to my channel, you probably have come across a few of my videos talking about relationship signs whether if they are interested in you or not. If so, simply show some of those signs that you’re interested. These signs can range from being flirty to being playful to making eye contact. By showing these signs, it helps relieve the pressure that’s been building inside of you and subtly lets your crush know that you are interested in moving your relationship to the next level.

10. Do it ASAP

If you’ve known this person for a while, you might as well just tell them how you feel. Like, right now, after watching this video. If they reciprocate back with the same feelings, then that’s great! If not, then you have just put yourself out of your misery! If they like you back and feel the same way about you, then that means you can enjoy their company sooner. So, don’t just wait and play the guessing game, you’ll never know how they feel about you until you ask.

At the end of the day, if you really like the person, you just need to communicate it them no matter how you go about it. You don’t want to be in doubt and do nothing and miss out on the opportunity. Just ask yourself if you would ever regret it if you do nothing. If so, then you probably like them enough to ask to see what they really think about you. You don’t have much to lose but a lot to gain just by letting your crush know. So yeah… Just some food for thoughts.
