Is it normal to just tell someone you like them? I did, and after my crush said I had a lot if courage for doing it. I think it was pretty cowardly and desperate if you ask me. I just figured everyone did, I guess not.
i would say so although most of the time , i act like an obvious idiot and have them figure it out. my laziness has a good advantage to it , it seems
I did with two girls I liked in time, and they said they had one on me too, so it was like, "D'AWWW". Even though it went nowhere, and just continued flirting and being friends.
How would it be cowardly? Simplistic, yes, but you are baring your heart for the one person whose opinion you actually care about, and it's directed straight at them. I would think it's really sweet if somebody straight up told me they liked me and dealt with the reaction. Normally it's a bit more subtle than that. People asking others to spend time together until the target catches on that it isn't a "just as friends" sort of thing. It's slightly easier being a guy IMO, as you can ask somebody out and make all the moves, rather than expect the other to take charge. Good luck in romance.
"Cowardly"? Far from! If you ask me, it's incredibly brave. You know how many people miss out on opportunities because they never had the guts to speak up? I mean, of course it can turn out badly and the person you like could reject you or get scared away, but at least you'll know and not keep wondering what if. I had a guy tell me he liked me, and of course it didn't pan out, but I admired his courage to say something about it.
... I think its completely stupid that people don't have the guts to tell someone you like them. So good on ya, your one of the few normal people I know. Seriously like a couple days after I met a guy online I told him I like him and like a week later he asked me out, we've been dating for over a year now, people make telling someone you like to out to be such a bad thing. Seriously if you don't tell them how will the person ever know to ask you out?
Farthest thing from cowardly. I'm usually a brash person but confessing something like that to a crush would be terrifying. If someone were to do it to me, I'd be extremely flattered. Their bravery wouldn't go without credit, either. And I don't think it's abnormal, at all. Straight-forward and to the point, right then and there. Actually, I did do it once to a girl I adored in year 8, but she didn't seem to find me attractive so I was crushed.
It's normal. The one guy I've had a crush on I told, though that was just to get over it. Lol. Worked quite well. Told him, then a few days later, years of crushing just kind've... went away. xD And he was quite cool about it as well.
