I like my crush…… how do I tell him without ruining a friendship
Relationship Stress / by Adri89

 January 18th, 2021
...See more I have known this guy for many years & I am starting to develop feelings for him. My friends that I've talked to tell me I should go tell him how I feel, but mutual friends I met through him say that he's too busy for a relationship in his life. He is a musician & I like to write lyrics, every time I see/talk to him, he inspires me to write more lyrics. This last lyric I wrote it's probably the first time I also thought of a melody to go with it & I can't get it out of my head. I am dying to tell him how I feel, but I'm worried the feelings aren't reciprocated & it will ruin our friendship in the end. He is the type of guy who is nice to everyone, so it's super hard to tell if he's flirting with me. ALSO there is this Gala coming up for our charity that I invited him to, but I can't tell if he accepted because it's for the charity OR because I asked him to come & he's coming because he wants to see me. Also at this Gala, there will be this one person who has tried to set me up with 40-something year old men, so j wanted to find a way to get my crush to come as my date/bf to get this guy off my back,but the only way I could think of is to ask my crushes mother what she thought & yeah that's SUPER awkward, but it's all I can think of.
