How To Tell A Special Someone That You’re In Love by penzino(m): 12:15am On Mar 18, 2013
Are you falling in love with someone you’re
dating or wondering how to tell someone that
you love them? Here’s all you need to get the
message across.
Taking the
next step
from dating
into a
relationship
isn’t always
easy,
especially if
you’re
feeling all
shy or
awkward
about it.
But
sometimes,
you may be
completely
sure that
you’re in
love even
though you
may not
know how to
share the
news.
If you’re wondering how to tell someone that
you’re in love with them, don’t hold that
thought.
Falling in love is special, and revealing how
intensely you like someone is just as special.
You may feel shy, awkward, or just confused at
first. But you’re not alone.
Telling someone you like that you love them
isn’t an easy step to take.
After all, expressing your love for someone is
also a commitment that you’d have to pledge.
If you’re certain that what you have in mind is
true love, here are a few cute and yet special
ways to tell a special someone that you’re in
love with them.

How to tell someone that you love them
There are many ways to pour out the thoughts
in your heart, but as with everything else, there
are a few good ways and a few not-so-good
ways.
When you’re ready for more love in your life,
use these three different ways to get the
message across.

THE DIRECT APPROACH

Can you tell someone that you like them face to
face? There really is no better way to propose
your love for someone than this. For the timid
lovers, fret not, we’ve got a few sweet ways to
create a special memory here.

# When you’re sitting next to each other

When you’re sitting next to this person during a
date and it’s just the both of you, sit close and
prepare yourself for a confession. Go close to
them and whisper it in their ears. It doesn’t
matter if you’re shy or feel awkward about it,
it’ll seem cute and very romantic. You can just
say it, kiss their cheek softly while you’re at it
and flash your cutest smile.

# Build the tension

Call your date up a day earlier and tell them
that you want to say something important and
feel really shy to talk about. Even if your date
asks you to talk about it over the phone, just
hold the thought and make plans for the next
day.
When you’re sitting together after a warm date
the next day, blush and smile a lot, and when
your date does ask you to say what you have in
mind, just smile a lot more and tell your date
that you’re feeling really awkward about it.
Wait for your date to start pestering you, which
they eventually will.
Within a few minutes, all your nervousness will
turn into excitement and both of you would be
laughing and teasing each other. And
somewhere along the way, your confession will
slip out even before you know it!

# After a separation


Has your sweetheart gone away for a weekend
or a little vacation? Do you miss them? Use it as
the perfect opportunity to get the message
across. When you meet again after a while, tell
your date that you missed them a lot. And
somewhere in the conversation, hold their
hand and tell them that you think you’re falling
in love with that person, more with every day…
You could also use this move after a special
date that you plan beforehand. The romantic
date would have created the perfect setting to
reveal your true feelings for the one you love.

THROUGH A LETTER

If you just can’t work your courage up to
express your love for the special someone in a
conversation, here are a few other ways to
express your love in a manner that’s just as
special.

# Write a letter

You don’t need to be a writer to express your
feelings for someone. Think of a few lines and
start writing. Very soon, the words will follow.
You could these tips on how to write a romantic
love letter to help you write the perfect one.
And end the note with a heartfelt “I love you…”

# Give a greeting card

If you can’t use your voice, use a Hallmark. Pick
a perfect card that expresses your feelings and
the next time both of you meet on a date, find a
quiet moment to give the card or slip it into
your date’s bag. Sometimes, a beautiful card
can make quite a deep impression.

# Send a gift

Too scared to even be seen around your date
when you express your feelings? Sending a
beautiful gift may be the best way forward for
you. Pick a romantic gift for your date, be it a
box of chocolates, flowers, or anything else that
you know your date would love. And within the
gift, add a small note which says “I love you”.

OVER THE PHONE

Expressing your love for someone is always
best done face to face. But if you want to use a
phone to get the message across, so be it.

# Text a love message

Texting is pretty impersonal. So don’t text your
date when you’re far away from each other
unless you have no choice. If you can brave up
for this, write a sweet romantic text before a
date, and when you’re sitting next to this
special someone after the date, text your
message to them. And once they do read it,
there’s a pretty good chance your date would
be beaming or blushing!

# On a late night call

Do both of you spend late nights talking to each
other over the phone for long hours? Then
you’d know that there would be occasional
bursts of romance, love and mush every now
and then in phone conversations. It may start
off with an “I miss you” or an “I’m so happy to
have met you”, but work your courage to say “I love you” too. You may be nervous, but once
you get the words out, you’d feel a lot better
about it.

Any other way is just not right
Always try to keep every expression of love
personal and memorable. There may be many
other ways to proclaim your love. But other
than a few exceptions, most non-face-to-face
proclamations are just not perfect.
Using the internet, passing the message
through a friend, using a newspaper ad, or any
other impersonal ways just don’t sound right
unless you mix it with a personal effect. Use
voice mail, and your date may end up thinking
it’s a prank!

After the confession
Now that you’ve proclaimed your love for your
date, don’t be too eager for an answer or force
your date into answering something.
Sometimes, proclamations of love can take
some time to sink in.
If your date responds with an “I love you too”,
that’s good for you. But if your date just smiles
or appears awkward, don’t think too much
about it. It may break your heart but it’s not the
end of the story. Perhaps, your date just needs
more time to think about it.
Don’t create an awkward moment at that point,
talk about something else and take the
awkwardness out of the conversation. If the
relationship has enough love to take the next
step forward, you’ll hear a positive reply in a
few days.

No matter how bold or shy you are when it
comes to love, use these simple and yet cute
tips on how to tell someone you love them,
and chances are, it’ll create a memorable
moment that may lead to something better
soon.
