Always tell him. Even if you feel he may react in a bad manner. If he doesn't respond with the respect and trust, he isn't the one

just tell him, He's your boyfriend after all, you should be open to one another. now if this feelings of yours is negative, the more you need to tell him. It gets hard when you hold back your feelings.

The best thing you can do is just tell him, chances are he probably feels the same way about you but is too scared to tell you.

Be honest with him, and don't hide how you truly feel. Honesty and communication are your strongest weapons, so just talk to him causally about it.

Be confident. Do not be scared and choose wise words. Do not mean to sound rude and make sure your message comes accross the way you want to. We do not want it to be misinterpreted.

By talking with him. If it is hard for you to share verbally, write a letter to him. Write everything you feel for him and let him read.

Depends on what you feel about him. Simply, Communicate. Talk. Say whatever is bothering you. Don't keep it inside.

A heart to heart conversation is some that helps clear all doubts. If we don't talk to our loved ones about our feeling directly, we won;t be able to know about their feelings. Communication is very important.

Ask him out, and when you´re prepared to tell him it would be a great idea to tell him on the date.

Expressing love too much can take away the charm from it. If you love your boyfriend, through your look, your gestures, and your tone, he will know. Life is a futile attempt to express the inexpressible, and that is part of its beauty.

Sit down with him. Somewhere away from all distractions and have a nice talk with him about how you feel

In my personal experiences, it's always best to be honest about how you feel. No matter what the feeling is.

Don't need to tell. If ur feelings are real and if feels the same then he will understand your feelings. Just be natural.

By communication. Letting any such feelings build up will result in frustration and bad feelings that needn't be there in the first place. If you're uncomfortable with talking face to face, communicate through text.

The best way is to just be honest and say it. If this is too scary maybe just write him a letter or make him a video saying it. If he is your boyfriend you want to feel safe with him like its ok to express your feelings to him.

You could tell him over a dinner. Or over a normal conversation. It would make him feel very special. You could write him a small note on how you feel for him.

Through being completely honest. Telling him whats on your mind, your thoughts and you feelings. Its just being genuine and honest

The more u try to frame the words.the more badly u can perform in front of him.its better to go and tel him directly by looking into his eyes.if u have a relationship then u should not have formal behaviour.tell him your feeling in a natural manner.just try to make it special for him.

Be open and honest don’t hide anything. Start out by having a normal conversation than slowly go into how you feel.

Being honest is the best approach to talk about your emotions. It is how you open yourself to others and let things become a possibility.

In every relationship you need to break down your walls (fears) to become emotionally connected. Once you open up you will realize how simple your relationship really is and how easy is it to discuss your feelings. Try open up with a compliment first.

Tell him what you feel, not by text or through a phone call. Talk to him personally, and only the two of you will discuss on what you are feeling. :) Make time to talk to him.

Sit down with him, and have a meaningful conversation. Don't hold back your feelings. Tell him, or else you might regret it.

You need to make sure both of you are in a comfortable, emotionally as well as mentally. Be it good or bad feelings, make sure you're mature about it and don't hold back. Be civil, keep in mind that the other person has feelings too and make sure to always hear out their opinion as well.

Have you thought about writing down your feelings first so you have a chance to reflect? Sometimes sharing your feelings while on a walk makes it easier - being out in the fresh air reminds you to breathe! And it’s less intense when you’re not directly face to face.

How can you tell your boyfriend how you feel about him? First off all you need to find out what is is that you are feeling. Are you in love, are you falling out off love or do you have an issue with something he does? A relationship is all about trust. Opening up to each other. Exposing your emotions and feeling to your partner. So that's what you should do in this situation as well.

Sometimes it can be hard to express your feelings, especially if they’re strong. Usually the best thing to do it sit down, with no distractions, and tell him exactly how you are feeling

If he's an honest rational person who is willing to respect what you're saying, then he will listen willingly to whatever you will have to say. If that is not the case, then the more you need to say how you feel about him. The best thing I can say is to be completely honest about it. No sugarcoating.
