When you love someone you love them

Ignoring your feelings: ------------------------------------ By keeping it to yourself that you love them, your feelings will build up and explode. You love them, so you want to give them love. Apparently, they will notice, of course, but since they aren't sure, they don't know what your boundaries are. They don't know that you might respond sensitively to some things or even get jealous, which is a normal human behavior of expressing after having the "perception" of getting dumped. As time passes, you will think your feelings aren't serious. "I mean, I love them because they are always so funny and it reminds me of my past self, and they make school so fun like that," was in my mind the whole time when I thought my feelings weren't true, to convince myself: hey, you just want to be friends with them. You want to know them better. Since I never got rejected because I never said it out loud, I thought I might still have a chance. The person you are crushing on might just get uncomfortable and not know how to act in front of you. If you aren't sure, ask yourself: Was it love at first sight? And why? In my case, it was not and did develop over time just because of what a person he was. I got over it after 2 years. "Maybe if I do this or that," "Why doesn't he get along with me but with them?" "Why is he saying that to me? Why is he acting like that towards me?" "Why does he love her but not me?" Telling them: I love you ------------------------------------ I would recommend just telling them. To be honest, I have never experienced that yet, but if I ever do, I will edit my poem definitely. They might have noticed already, and since they know that they are right, you will make it easier for them too. You two can talk about it, and if he ever still gave "signs" even though he rejected you, you will know that it's not your fault because he already knew. You will never overthink as much as you will when you store your feelings inside you. After you say it, there might be kind ones who, during the conversation, calm you down by saying: "That's very strong of you, I just..." "Didn't he love me because...?" Will the question have an answer or be erased? And, future Adna?
