Are you in love and don't know how to tell her/him? Do you want to do it in the best possible way? Would you like the moment to be unforgettable? If the person you love doesn't yet know how you feel, it's important that you know how to say it. We know how difficult it is to tell someone you love them. So we've put together this article so that you know how to declare your love to that person who's so important to you. Discover 5 tips for declaring your love to your Crush!
Consider the possibility of rejection
It's possible that the person who's so important to you doesn't feel the same way, so be prepared for a negative reaction and look for alternatives and benefits. If you remain stuck in the fear of rejection, it will cost you much more than taking the plunge. And you risk entering a spiral of suffering and low self-esteem.
There are a lot of fish in the sea, and believe it or not, things happen for a reason. If that person rejects you, he or she will make way for another, later, who will come into your life and who could be the one who really makes you happy. Think of life as a great adventure where you sometimes win and sometimes lose. But don't forget, we lose in order to win later!
Look for the right moment
Don't start when you're with friends who are talking or having fun. Choose quiet times when you're alone with your Crush and no one can disturb you. Also, don't choose complicated milestones for this person such as the recent break-up of another relationship, the death of a loved one or stressful circumstances.
Even if you think declaring your feelings is beneficial, your Crush may be emotionally unstable and reacting in an inappropriate or flimsy way. If none of this has happened, look for a quiet moment or a solo weekend getaway, for example, and go for it.
Start subtly and, little by little, analyse your partner's reaction. If you see that the reaction is not what you expected, don't continue, as the negative may be just around the corner. Find out if you've chosen the wrong moment or if he doesn't like you.
Adopt the right attitude
It's important that you adopt a loving, sensitive and humble attitude. What you say must be sincere and from the heart. Otherwise, the other person may notice and become defensive. Say nice things to make him or her feel at ease. You can try using a certain approach, stroking their hair, their arm or taking their hand... everything should be as natural as possible and not be uncomfortable for the other person.
Get ready
Before you take the plunge, you can prepare your speech in advance. This will help you feel more at ease and you'll be less afraid of getting stuck in the moment. Practise with someone close to you whom you trust, ask them for advice and listen to their experiences - it always helps. However, be aware that things, even if you rehearse them, will never turn out exactly as you thought.
Don't overthink it
The final piece of advice is not to think too much. If you think about it too much, you'll start to evaluate variables that you've never asked before, that will probably never happen and that can set you back. Relax, take a deep breath and go for it. It's sure to be the start of a wonderful adventure with your Crush!
