I wrote a love letter (confession) to the guy I want to send this to, can u give me feedback, first please???

[ItzMadame2U]

Gosh, I feel nervous, but I am desperate for some opinions and feedback before sending this potentially creepy shit to him. I'm having such a hard time right now!!!

 

Here's what I just typed up and was going to write in my handwriting, critique me please.... 

I'm a train wreck and embarrassed all over, but I'll at least start and consider it from y'alls eyes first. 

 

 

 

So....there's  been something heavy on my mind and heart, which I've finally decided to reveal to you. My deepest feelings for you. It is just as much overwhelming for me writing this to you as it would be to speak these words. But honestly....you are absolutely and simply, unlike any guy I've ever met in all of my years in living, just as much as these feelings are completely unlike any other feeling that I've felt for anyone before.

 

You probably don't even know it, probably truly don't even recognize the full extent of the feelings you make me feel. Feelings that I cannot believe that I was ever capable of feeling, because I never felt them for anyone before, anyone but you. You consume my mind at every waking moment, funny enough, you also appear in my dreams. I feel so shy around you, you probably don't even notice it. I say stupid, silly, and random things to you just to give myself a reason to interact with you, when in reality, my mind goes blank and there is nothing that I can or want to say to you other than my affectionate feelings that I feel for you in the present, so I force other insignificant words out of my mouth.

 

There were things that I hated doing, like taking the bus and going to work each morning, but because of you, I look forward to making my way to your bus stop and getting to work, just to get to see you. God, the butterflies in my stomach are crazy right now... I find you very attractive, physically and intellectually. You amaze me, you've changed my perception on many things, you are incredibly sweet, and are just a great friend overall.

 

On New Year's Day, I journaled and described my ideal type of guy,  when I became friends with you, I couldn't help but to venture back into my old journal and take notice on how you somehow fit the descriptions of my leisure entry, it was almost scary to be honest.  I see so much in you as a person, in my eyes you are truly a rare gem, simply unique. From the very first moment I saw and noticed you (on the bus, after you walked ALL the way to Preston Hwy after your New Hire Orientation haha!), I admit that I was interested in your looks and knew that I would be sure to get to know you, but I never thought that it would develop to such deeper feelings.

 

Your first Sunday working, the first Sunday that we worked together, I was so glad to get to know you as a person because you honestly exceeded my expectations, and you still do. I like being your friend, I like talking to you, I love seeing you, I enjoy your presence and being in it - which is why before I could never ever bring myself to tell you how I honestly felt, for fear of scaring you away. But, I honor you enough to let you know that recently I've attempted to withdraw myself from you out of frustration of my complex feelings, and also because I am afraid of my inability to contain my feelings - feelings that are perhaps, not mutual. Nevertheless, if something had ever happened to our friendship and I, never being able to see you again, there would be no greater regret in my life than for you to not realize how I've truly felt for you all along; therefore I am confessing to you and giving you my heart through this letter.

Your writing's very beautiful.
I'm not sure what to say, but... hmm. I wrote a confession very similar to this last spring and, sadly, it didn't go over well. It was too mushy to the other person and ended up pushing them away from me, which still bothers me to this day.
If you believe they won't mind the emotional power present in your writing, then I'd say it's perfect as is ^^

[Silktiger]

Can I ask whether he is your friend and could potentially have feelings for you too? Or is he just an acquaintance?

I think it's good, a little bit cheesy but in a good way. I don't think you should feel nervous because if he likes you back, then he's going to like whatever you do even if you write like 2 sentences. If he doesn't, oh well, just means he wasn't the right person for you.

[Indi]

This is good. It feels honest and real. I don't know if I'd keep the "consume my mind at every waking moment" part in there because it might not come off as sweet as you want it to. But this is extremely sweet and he should feel flattered that you took the time to write this even if he doesn't feel the same way. Good luck!!!!

[Lynnie]

I think you're very brave writing this, I know it isn't something that I could ever do (or at least not yet). It seems like it came straight from your heart. Good luck!!! 

[Vixen]

This is beautiful. You remind me of myself.

 

 

 

I'm not really a good writer but everytime I write something for the one I love I suddenly turn into Shakespeare.

you should to put those beautiful skills to work & write some fanfics.

Hmmm, that is a thought. It's very emotional, because I'm very emotional. I crave affection and romance, and he admitted to me once before that he isn't the romantic type, he appears to be extremely stoic and apathetic at times - completely opposite of me, actually, yet somehow there is a bit of sweetness, attentiveness, and caring nature in his being. 

 

Thank you for your feedback, tho!!

Yes, he's a good friend. We've hung out intimately, I've been in his house, he even trusts me enough to hang on to his valued writing, which I still have and would eventually have to return. I feel that he reveals some interest, but with his personality, it's so hard to tell.

Thank you, I will consider revising and/or omitting that. The honesty is appreciated on all days!

It did come straight from the heart, stomach, and the deepest unknowns in me. Thank you!!

LOL! Thank you, but for some reason, after I poured my heart out in this letter, I felt like listening to BTS. xD

omg, you being nervous for me makes me ten times more nervous!!! ctfu!! 

Thank you!!!

Are you a person of weight?

A person of weight??? What does that mean and what's the relevance?

[♩ ♪ ♫ ♬]

i wanna say it's a bit too much but then again i don't know how close you are & it does sound very sincere

good luck

[Property of Goddess Irene]

Overweight.

 

Increases the chances of rejection, a lot.

[MangoTea]

LMFAO 

[Indi]

Overweight.

only if the person is super shallow

This letter was wonderfully written. I almost teared up because this is like the story of my life right now. I swear I could see myself in your post.

 

 

 

[jelly97bean]

Your writing is very beautiful. 

 

I'm not the kind of person that's romantic... in fact, I prefer to stay away from it. But if I received something like this from someone I liked, I think I would be really happy, flattered, and moved.

same! Honestly OP you are so brave because i don't even think I could write this out even if I WASN'T going to send it. I really want to know how this turns out too.

#heartbroken people like you, me and OP must stick together tbh!

[ItzMadame2U]

I had this weird "clogging" in my throat when I started typing and finding the words, I had butterflies as I typed it and I was in my bed, with the door shut, alone.

 

 

And I wasn't even sure if I really was going to send it, I was more so just typing everything that I felt inside at the very moment. It's a lot to feel, it's very overwhelming, especially when you don't always get to feel like this towards somebody. There are tons of people to fuck with, "talk to", people who like your looks, but to have a connection with someone who potentially likes you back, but you can't really tell. It's a lot to do, especially if you don't want to compromise your friendship or make anything awkward.

[mayxalka]

Your writing is wonderful!

 

I think the content of the letter would be overwhelming if you two were just acquaintances, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Your words are soft yet aggressive at the same time.

Girl, you are so freaking brave for doing this.

 

May I ask if you are handwriting this letter to him?

That'd be so old school romantic and incredibly adorable.

Yeah, I'm definitely gonna put it in my handwriting. I just typed it up for editing reasons, because it's easier and doesn't require a whole bunch of throwing paper away and ripping out pages, etc. 

[awolfska]

this is a very heartfelt letter, and props to you for feeling so courageous to confess to him.

 

HOWEVER, if i was in your position, i would not reveal my feelings to him. at least, not now, and not in this way. it's mainly because this letter is a loaded gun. it's sweet, but it's wayyyy too heavy and the potential of scaring him off / wrecking your friendship/flirtationship is way too great right now. even if he is interested, obviously he's not interested ENOUGH at this stage to ask you out yet. that's why it's important to not scare him off with such a loaded letter.

 

here's how i'd play out the game: i'd wait for a while longer, continue to talk to him and flirt with him, and hopefully HE gets the hint and asks you out rather than you releasing this bombshell to him. this isn't to say that you must play the coy submissive role of the stereotypical female; during your interactions with him you can definitely let him know with nonverbal cues that you're interested (maintaining eye contact, smiling, casual touch, laughter, banter etc).

 

even if you don't want to wait and would like to confess to him, do so in a much more casual manner. confidently approach him one day after you guys have had a nice (and hopefully flirtatious) interaction and ask him if he'd like to grab a coffee/lunch/dinner with you, and gauge his reaction then to make your next move. this letter, while moving, is just too much.

 

just looking out for your best interests here... i want this to succeed as much as you do, but i have a strong feeling that confessing your feelings in this way would only wreck things up.

Nah, I think I am gonna probably take this advice eventually. Cause you're right, it is heavy as f..., and even though I'm overcome with emotion right now, I'll probably let that out during casual interaction. I will keep the letter and if things eventually become something like I hoped they would, I will still reveal it to him, but I feel that would have to be something as a reinforcement of my love for him - a documentation of how he made/makes me feel.

GAHHH this thread has me all in my feelings!

I can't even imagine how you felt, my heart is racing and my hands are sweaty just thinking about it. But you're so right and to get all that feeling out on paper is probably good for you and will help you out a lot. Especially when real connections are SUPER rare. I really hope everything works out for you!!!!

glad to hear that you understand what i meant it is very intense and does sound like it came right from your heart, so in that sense it's quite meaningful on a personal level - you could definitely keep it for 'documentation purposes', where you could look back on it sometime in the future (whether you're with this guy or not at that point) and be reminded of how beautiful and deep your passion for him has been. and i agree with what you said - perhaps things will really work out between you two, and once you're secure in the relationship, that'll be a great day to reveal this letter!
