I am totally in love with my lady..

But I feel I cant tell her. I cant seem to find the moment, the time, the place. That may sound dumb *fuck sake man just tell her*

But im fearful of it too. This is me being honest with myself; I know the chances are she will kiss me and say I love you back but the smidgen chance that its awkward or she wont feel the same is holding me back and it hurts. Every time she kisses me goodbye and drives away I feel like a lost puppy, just dying to tell her.

Wtf do I do? do I stop being such a pussy and tell her? do I wait for her to tell me first? Do I just wait for the moment.. ?

I had a 2 year relationship and various others prior to this but Ive never been in love if I am honest with myself, until this girl. Weve been friends for 5 years nearly and an item/partnership for 5 months now..

Confused this shit is driving me crazy Crying or Very sad

If you don't tell them they will start to get insecure about your relationship. I would much rather chance it with a high probability of success than to have the relationship in a bad situation which could lead to its demise.

Tell her because its the truth and the truth should always be spoken. You will be rewarded my friend. Also don't get any ideas that you can do sweet things expressing your love instead of saying it directly as nothing means more than your own words.

No need for a drama, to be anxious or fearful, if it is your first *true* love then don't waste it with the usual teenager pathos. Show her love, actions say more than words. Good luck. Smile

O please you know those actions would most likely result in gifts. Actually saying what he means with the passionate voice would be much better than any action.

I sent my gf a box today, in it is a cute little white teddy, and in his hands I tied a lettre, in that lettre I enclosed some tender words and a nice necklace with a pink pearl attached to it. That lettre was fully compiled in reverse stating my love:LOL: She loves crazy people, so I gave her crazy:)

If you want to express your love to someone, tell them. Speak to her, explain to her the things that you love about them. How you feel about yourself when they are around.

Getting a gift is a great way to express love, just don't be generic. The gift must mean something, it should be significant (not cost wise.) A gift that someone can always have around, and something they can tell a story about. That way they will always be reminded of you, and how you feel for her, and hopefully how she feels for you.

i hate gifts and expressing my feelings through them (i'm excluding those times during the year when they are necessary Razz). i use words and actions to show my affections towards my lady and it seems to have paid off up until now.

Oh geez, are you so uncreative that "giving a present" is the only action you can figure out to show affection?

Basic stuff really, looking at her while smiling, kissing, carressing, hugging, blowing some air into her ear. You don't really need to use money, give her attention; that'll express it clearly.

most of you are right ; a gift wont mean that much to her. Shes very layed back about things, though. she doesnt seem to care about money or gifts, more about spending time with me doing nice things together. Were going out on tuesday, to a local park with her dog (its becomming a regular thing) I think im gonna hold out until then, then when we get to the top of the forrest and sit on the bench we usually sit on I shall drop the bombshell.

Wish me luck Very Happy

I think not. Love is an action not a word, the word is just an attempt @ describing the action. No need to say anything show your love. Remove all that is between you & bathe in your love for each other. Words just get in the way more often than not. When you really sharing love with somebody everything else in the world just fades into the distance, only your unity exists. All to soon a distraction or insecurity will draw you back into the loveless realm of fears & insecurities, distractions & hungers.

Take every chance @ submersing yourself in love. The longer you spend loving the more you will be able to address the pain & loneliness of life honestly. Do not waste this short life stalling or with people who don't have the courage to love. When your committed to loving for the sake of loving, you can tell who loves you & who doesn't like you can tell black from white. The hard part is being honest with yourself. Don't wait for somebody to get around to loving you back. They don't they wont. Just back off & let them go.

Chinup's post is kind of neat, but certainly not the way life works.

People have senses, five of which we actively recognize you know sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste.

So just being doesn't stimulate any senses, except perhaps touch if you are together. learning to effectively stimulate the other senses is equally important, they all have their place.

This is why I suggested a personalized gift, which would trigger sentimental value, which would encourage remembering the quiet times, the touches and the love, even when they are not physically together.

Yes, there are such gifts but they are hard to come by. Very rare actually. I would say a large % of people can't even fathon what that might be. When given they are more special then any diamonds or gold.

Sounds like you have received one at some point. If you have received one, I must ask, have you ever given one?

Martian123 .. I think you confuse lovers with whores. Perhaps you have only ever known whores. Wink

Whore = affection for payment, said payment could be emotional security, financial ect for securities.

Lover = loves because loving is what you wish to do as long & as deep as you can. For nothing but the joy of being able to.

Animals pair up for food, procreation ie. securities.

Humans have the potential to pair up to reach higher awareness of life for we are only half aware, being only one gender. With the connection of both sexes a whole awareness of life can be perceived. Neutral

I wouldn't worry about me, Chinup is a crazy idealist, the type of person who doesn't realize that life isn't based on the wonderful idea's of great thinkers.

People are complex organisms, and require attention, affection, and stimulation to all senses this is just a plain fact. Chinup would have us believe that we are somehow beyond what we really are.

Edit: Humans are animals in everyway shape and form. We are just the smartest ones.

I suppose its down to what you consider to be whorish. Whats harsh is Martian telling himself & others that real love cant exist, to compensate for the purely physical alternative he has resined himself too. Bottom line your not going to ever find out what it is to really love somebody so long as your busy with your security mechanisms. love exists in the wild uncontrolled realms of human experience. Not in the safe controlled cages we build to protect ourselves from the reality of life's pain & loneliness. Loving is what being human is all about, everything else is just compensating for not loving. When you love all the stupid worries & fears of life fall away because you are @ the source of happiness, liberty, joy all the things that make life worth living. No trinket can compare with true love. Something felt far deeper than just your senses or skin. Your never the same after you feel that bond which makes being alive count for something. Being able to accept someones love & being able to love truly love somebody is the ultimate in human experience, climbing mountains, winning F1 races are cheap & tinny in comparison.

You think I'm crazy because what i speak of is outside of your reality. I'd rather be crazy than live a life of nothing but shallow hate due to being too much of a coward to actually fulfill my potential as a human rather than a scurrying animal preoccupied with securities.

You want to express love, do it with with your whole being, represent the potency of your life awareness, your willingness to hold her in your arms eternally. If she cant go there with you, would rather be given gifts & concern herself with image worries, drop her. Plenty of guys who use their wallet rather than their heart are there for her type.

You have obviously figured out the world, there is nothing left for you here, you must be ready to ascend to another level of concisousness...

But please do not come on here telling people that I state love cannot exist, you blatantly put those words into my mouth, and that in of itself is exactly why I refuse to discuss this any further, you are a liar! If you don't like what I say than don't like it. Do not under any circumstances make up lie's or place assumptions because I believe different than yourself. I have read many of your posts saying open up your mind to other possibilities, yet you are entirely closed off to mine, funny how that works.

Not worth my time, but thank you for sharing.

What do you know of life, when you replace your heart with a wallet ? you call that love ? I call that payment for services. You speak of the world, have you had a relationship with somebody who doesn't even speak your language, shared time together never speaking a word ? Have you felt the love of the earth, living alone in a place where your lover is the very land around you, the earth itself ? When a woman shares love with me she is on a planet all our own. Every morning a brand new life, every meal a dance of shared appreciation for everything that is life even the air we breathe. Precious, irreplaceable moments. Wink

I thought you were the guy, the one who has the courage to go beyond the limits put up by our fears & insecurities, allowing her fears to melt in the wake of your certainty. Love is beyond any other action, its supposed to allow you to go further than you have ever been. i don't miss any of my lovers, no need, we loved. No unfinished business. We are in a new place now because of the love we made.
