1. Start Casual—But Personal
No need to open with a dramatic “We need to talk.”
Try something like:
- “Okay, I’ve been debating whether to send this for hours…”
- “So… can I tell you a little secret?”
- “Promise not to freak out?”
2. Be Honest—But Keep It Light
You don’t need a Shakespearean confession.
Keep it real.
A few go-to lines:
- “I kind of have a thing for you.”
- “Every time we talk, I like you a little more. Just sayin’.”
- “If this makes things weird, ignore me and blame autocorrect.”
3. Use Humor to Break the Ice
Playful texts work wonders, especially if that’s your vibe:
- “Would it be weird if I said I think about you more than tacos?”
- “Just out here crushing like a middle schooler.”
- “Do you believe in signs? Because I keep ‘accidentally’ texting you.”
4. Drop a Hint First
Not sure if he feels the same?
Test the waters:
- “You’re actually one of my favorite humans. Just FYI.”
- “If I were into someone, how should I tell them… hypothetically?”
- “Is it just me, or do we have a vibe?”
5. Know When to Hit Send
Don’t overthink it forever.
Re-read, take a breath, and send it.
The right guy won’t leave you on read—he’ll appreciate your boldness.
