Love is a wonderful feeling sung in hundreds of works of art. Love is capable of changing not only the lives of individuals and families, but, as history shows us, of entire nations and states. Unfortunately, today people are increasingly afraid of strong feelings, and if they fall in love, they are afraid to admit it.
Deep fears
From early adolescence, young men and women become interested in the opposite sex. These first falls in love often shape our subsequent behavior on the love front.
Accordingly, every failure in relationships that occurs at a young age leaves an imprint on our behavior in the future. Teenagers, due to their inexperience and naivety, can step on the same rake more than once, which develops a kind of reflex: "love = failure", which can be quite difficult to get rid of in the future without the help of specialists.
In addition, young people, unlike girls, also experience social pressure. According to traditional ideas about a "real man", a guy has no moral right to express his emotions, which leads to the formation of complexes and makes young men stiff and dry in relations with the weaker sex. In turn, girls are taught from an early age that the first step is unworthy behavior, and they should expect action from the chosen one.
Because of these attitudes, we can experience a lot of problems in relationships. It turns out a kind of vicious circle: the man does not show his feelings, because he is afraid to seem weak, and the young lady does not admit her sympathy, because she is afraid to seem fluffy.
Based on this, we can only draw one conclusion: it is necessary to fight the traditional attitudes and complexes that have developed against this background.
Say the cherished words
When to confess your love, only you can decide, and no one has the right to insist on these words. If your other half confesses his love to you every day, but you do not feel the same in return, it is better to do more neutral: "I like you" or "I am glad that we are together." After all, a lie, especially a lie about such a feeling as love destroys not only relationships, but also personality.
But what to do when you are in love and are ready to take the first step, but are afraid, not sure about the feelings of your partner, or are simply embarrassed to take the first step?
Of course, the easiest way is to write a message on a social network or SMS, this method will help you save face if a refusal follows, or even reduce a misunderstanding to a joke.
A romantic surprise, if well prepared, will be able not only to convey your message to the addressee, but also will additionally help to endear your loved one to yourself. For example, it could be a courier with a bouquet of flowers or a gift and a beautifully designed letter of recognition.
But, undoubtedly, the best way to convey the cherished three words to your beloved is to overcome your fears and say "I love you", looking into each other's eyes with a smile.
Do not be afraid to confess your love, and it will be mutual!
