I.. Just Froze, what now?

Question

I failed,

I've been wanting to tell my boyfriend that I love him,

We've almost been together a year, our one year is in two weeks!

( We were very good friends for about 4 years and then turned into a relationship )

I've been in love with him for a few months now, like MADLY in love, and I'm getting restless wanting to tell him.

i tried to tell him the other night, and just froze.

I said something along the line's of : "it's hard to say "

and he of course asked what...

I froze again, and just told him " Just know that you're perfect "

He told me " far From" and i went on telling him that I was serious...

I didnt get a response, we were laying in bed.

How do I know when it's the right time?

When I won't freeze up.. It's gonna burst inside me, I really want to tell him.

How can I make sure its not awkward?

I know it's like the little 13 year old questions, but me and my boyfriend are both in our 20's.

Please help!

Answer 2

If it's difficult for you to say it, WRITE it in a letter to him. Leave it on his pillow. But before you give it to him, read it through to be really sure that that it's in sync with what your heart feels... In a letter, it's free flow and no 'freezing'.

You'll be fine...

All the best. :-)

Answer 3

Okay maybe your gut feeling is telling you that he is not ready for this. You could tell him this: I want to tell you something and you do not have to answer and we do not have to discuss it: I love u. Give it a moment, don't get mad at him and move on to another topic if he doesn't answer. Might take away any awkwardness. Good luck girl:)

Edit: You have a very good point there Cynthia! Thumps up!

Answer 4

Take advantage of your upcoming one year anniversary in two weeks.  You can put it in a special note or at the bottom of a card.  Just let him know how special he is and that you love him.  This way you don't have to be worrying all the time about getting the right words out at the perfect time.  Happy one year and wish you many more ;)

Answer 5

Write him a letter, but he probably knows anyhow. Why else would you be with him?

Answer 6

if you froze then that means you still have some reservations.

just let it out and tell him that you love him, if that's how you truly feel.

Answer 7

I can't believe that I am going to say this, but I honestly wouldn't tell him until he said it first. When he looks into your eyes and says he loves you, then you can respond and tell him that you love him too. I think men like to do the chasing and sometimes they get spooked if a woman says I love you first. Be patient, when he says those words to you, you will be able to respond very very easily without the hesitation that you're feeling now. Let him take the lead on this one.
