If you are a woman and you fall in love with a man, would you let him know?

I never thought I could feel this way with him. I had my boyfriend that time who I dearly loved when he entered in my life.We broke because of his jealousy toward my friend. My friend is a Chinese and we have our good relationship up to now. He spent 2 months with us and with those months, I can say that I unintentionally fell in love with him. I wasn't aware of it until he left our country. That was the time I realized that there is something that I feel toward him. He is now in Singapore and I am still here in the Philippines but still we have our communication. He invited me last time to be there but due to financial problem I cannot go. Now, I am motivated to follow my dream to travel abroad because of him. I don't have the guts to tell him what I feel; however, I already accepted that maybe he will just be forever a part of my dream. Just having a constant communication with him makes me happy. Did you encounter same situation? What will you do if ever you will fall in my shoes, especially if you are the female?

Well i believe i would not be able to hold this in my heart forever, i would look upon his reactions. I will try to tell it to him in a positive body language and sees how he reacts, but my aim is to let him tell me he love me first and then i will want to prove it for myself....

I think so that even we cannot say what we feel, we cannot hide it in our actions. I care for him, send him e-mails, and try my best to keep in touch with him even sometimes he is not responding.Even in my messages for him, I show my care for him.

For me is best if the guy tells you first. However, there are a few guys out there who are shy and not so sure of themselves, that we--the ladies-- have no choice but to tell them how we really feel. If I was on your shoes, I would make sure that he likes me first, before telling him how I feel because if he doesn't feel the same way, things will get awkward between the two of you.

We are good friends and it is possible that he likes me. The question is does he have the same feeling for me? I am too scared to get his answer and too scared to lose the friendship that we have. That is why I want to just keep this feeling in my heart. And maybe someday, if he will open his heart for me then I can do same for him.

hi, if i still have a partner of course i should never tell the feelings i had to the man,but if i am currently single and fall in love with a man,of course we need to tell it so that we would know if that person also like us,because there are people who never tell what they feel until the man fall in love with other woman.

I would first hope he felt the same way.. that way he would tell you first. But if not, Id make sure he knew how you felt about him. Love is a very special thing. Good luck to you. See you soon. here....

HI mariaperalta, Are you living in Singapore too? I would really love to go there but I need to prepare my wallet too.I learned that is the most expensive country in Asia. I had read some blogs too about Singapore which proves that the country is very expensive. I would like to visit him even for a week but my mom stop me because it is not practical to go there just to pay a visit.

I think you should try your luck. Maybe he has the same feelings to you as well. I have this guy in my class that I really really like and i am planning to tell him in the end of the school year. i know that we're not going to see each other again but I'd rather tell him than regret it for the rest of my life.

Before he leaves our country, I composed a letter for him in which I told him what I feel in an implied way. I can still remember that time how much I wanted to tell it to him but instead of telling him what I feel, I just embraced him. I could not stop my tears because I know that I will be missing him and I don't know if we can still meet in the future. On my way back home, I received a call from him. He was still in the airport checking me where I was. I was in the train when he called. I could not remember what he said because it was quite noisy and I really feel like crying that moment. We chatted after online, and he told me the words "I Love You". He told me he said those words but just in a quiet way. I was surprised but I just responded that he loves me like a brother to his sister. I really don't want to expect. He is 4 years younger than me and I know that there will be more girls that he will meet.

Tell him. :) it's better to fail at something than to not have tried at all. :)

Its good that you have recognized your feelings towards that guy. Its very normal and healthy. Your communication with this guy would lead to a deeper friendship later on, and we don't know certain feeling will develop to the guy amidst of your distant. Just continue with your communication to him. With regards of motivation, go beyond being motivated just by person whom you like. Take note anyone could fail us. Be motivated by a noble purpose of living in life and all these things will come a the right time.

I think in a relationship, most people can tell how it's going by attitudes and responses in conversations. Do they seem happy to be with you? Moat times you can tell by the way they resppond to you when you talk. Look at the exprerssion in someone's eyes. Does it show a positive reaction? It's importsnt to know if they are telling you the truth when they tell you they are enjoying your company. Being sincere with others usually shows up because most people are not good actors. Have you heard the expression, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." Maybe the fact that he is not there with you anymore, you feel that you love him. Perhaps you are looking for someone to love and your love for him may be just some kind of a wish. Think about this.

Sometimes actions speak louder than words. Some men know it when women fall in love with them. I think there is no need to tell them after all men must be the one to court the women.
