do guys feel like they have to build a friendship up with a girl before they can tell them their feelings?

i mean in some ways it makes sense and helps with their accountability and such..
but would a guy who doesnt have a friendship built up with a girl just go out of their way to talk to that girl?

but generally would an average guy just go up to a girl??
or does he have to see that they have some of the same interests maybe friends.. idk

well a lot of people these days are scared to talk to people they don’t know.

but if a guy ‘likes’ a girl then he might.

yeah..im an intimidating girl though..for the most part the type of guys i like do not come up and talk to me because i am intimidating and confident and i know that im attractive ( not the most attractive you know but confident)..
so i feel that scares them away
bc theres this guy and i know this is lame a 20 y/o girl saying this but im shy with guys that i like bc im used to being @ the club or something bc thats where i work and where i used to work so its hard..esp when the guy isnt the type to go out to clubs and such

well if you don’t think he’s going to approach you, you need to approach him before someone else grabs him instead.

A man doesn’t share his emotions because he is fearful of rejection. If a woman rejects a man, it will destroy him inside. She says “oh we can just be friends” or something… is okay if she is single but if she is closer to another man that sucks. If a man tells you up front he loves you… it gives you power to play with him, and go after another man and take his love for granted. At least that is what he believes. I actually think it is okay to say to a woman how you feel… there is nothing to lose. If you do not… you may lose everything.
