Yeah, I need to tell him. But I tend to freak out and I get really nervous and I usually can't get the words to come out of my mouth. I am much better at texting, writing a letter or just writing them a Facebook message. In the past, I had done the whole tell one of guy's friends to tell him for me, because I can't do it. I also have had problems with getting rejected.
So than text him and tell him. Here's the deal, it's easy for us to suggest that you do this, we aren't the ones who are taking the risk, right? But the cool part is, since we don't have skin in the game and are just trying to give good advice, we are giving you objective advice. I'm not gonna lie to you, he might reject you and you might not ever be able to date him or spend a lot of time with him. But I'm not gonna lie to you when I saw there's a chance he'll be happy you like him, and you'll be able to date him and spend a lot of time with him.
If he doesn't want to date you, you'll have had the experience of telling a guy you liked him, and got rejected, and you'll find that YOU SURVIVED. So when the next guy comes along, it'll be easier to ask him out (and please understand, if nothing happens with this guy, you'll get over him and there will be another guy you'll like).
I guess what I'm really saying is at this point it's best to just tell him the truth and let the chips fall where they may. That's better than not telling him. Even if the result is negative, it's still better to tell him the truth. One way or the other, it's a win win situation for you.
