Ask Cliff: How to tell your crush you like him

Hey girls, thanks for tuning in last week. Since I have been getting so many Qs on the best way to tell a guy you like him, I thought I would give some insight on the best way to approach your crush. Here's how you should spill it.

Q: How do you tell a guy you like him??

A: As guys, we love it when girls are into us (talk about an ego boost). When it comes to letting us know that you like us, it's best to pick a way that matches your personality. There’s really no right or wrong way to do it. If you’re normally shy, maybe slip your crush a note. If you're bold and have no problem speaking up, go right up to him and start a conversation. You have to realize that guys are flattered by the fact that girls are into us at all. A lot of times, we're just as nervous to tell a girl how we feel. If anything, it can be more stressful for us because we automatically feel like we are the ones that are supposed to approach the girl (and not the other way around).

One time, I had this huge crush on this girl in my chemistry class–and let's just say there was ZERO chemistry between us. I just didn’t know the best way to go about telling her how I felt. Eventually, though, I decided to ask her if she wanted to study together. That way, we could break the ice AND I could get better at chemistry–after all, focusing on her instead of my schoolwork was the reason I wasn't doing so well (just kidding–I was actually really bad at chemistry). But while I was gathering up the courage to ask her, she ended up beating me to it! Turns out she liked me, too. Point is, if you like a guy, don’t stress yourself out about how you are going to tell him, because you’re really taking a lot of the pressure off just by being honest. And trust me, we appreciate it.
