10 Tips for Confessing Your Love to Him
6. Drop hints a few days in advance if possible
It is better if you prepare him for this confession, rather than dropping it like a bombshell on him. A little flirtatiousness and a few hints will not only keep him interested but also might help him receive the confession better. You have to be prepared for both reactions. But dropping hints will let you know what his probable reaction could be. Some guys respond to mere hints while some might start distancing themselves at the first sign of an emotional bonding. There are those who happily play along and are the toughest to decipher.
7. Take help from a friend of his
Ask his closest friend what he likes and what he hates. You may know him for a while, but guy friends will always know the deepest secrets. Men too have fantasies about women confessing their love to them. Guy friends of your man can help you by sharing those fantasies if there are any. This will give your confession an extra edge enhancing the chances of getting an affirmative answer.
8. Be romantic but in your own style
Don’t embarrass yourself by doing what others think is cool or romantic. If you are coming down to confessing your love for him, it means you have spent some time with him. It also means he likes you for what you already are, especially if you are friends. Try to be a little romantic, by getting a few flowers or cards or saying nice words or by picking a cozy ambiance. However, don’t do something that you don’t believe in, like an adventure stunt to impress him. A low-key confession isn’t such a bad option.
9. Practice before the mirror
This is the toughest test. Try forming words and try saying them in front of the mirror. Focus on your eyes when you say them. If you cannot do it face to face, try veering the conversation to the point of confession on a phone. You will miss out on his reactions, but it is a good choice if face to face conversation makes you too nervous.
10. Send a card and arrive half hour later
If you are worried about his immediate reaction, send a card or confession letter and ask him to message you if he doesn’t want you to drop by. It will save both some embarrassment.
