Do not worry, if you want to know how to tell your crush you like them in the least awkward way possible, I’ll help you with this. Just follow the steps I have shared and let your crush know you like them.
The steps are divided into three parts:
- Reacting the right way

- Telling them how you feel in other ways
How to Tell Your Crush You Like Them
Lets’ explore the steps in detail:
Step 1- Reacting The Right Way
1. Don’t be disheartened or disappointed if your crush doesn’t share same feelings- If your crush doesn’t feel the same way as you do, it’s not the end of the world. Instead you should be proud that you had enough confidence to confess your feelings and you got the answer you were looking for even if it wasn’t what you wanted. If your crush doesn’t like you, just say politely “Thanks to listening to me” and “Goodbye”.
2. Don’t behave weird seeing your crush if you know they don’t like you- It’s okay if your crush doesn’t share feeling for you. If you are good friends, then you should take it easy but that doesn’t mean you run away or avoid them completely the next time you see them somewhere. Keep doing what you used to do and act happy to see your crush every time you guys cross paths. Remember to play cool because your crush can’t help how they feel.
3. Be happy if your crush also likes you- If your crush feels the same for you, then enjoy the feelings of giddiness and excitement. Be happy and have fun hanging out with your crush or dating them. But take things slow and decide what you really want to do next. Your crush would like your honesty and boldness and would want to hang out with you as soon as possible.
Step 2- Tell your Crush How You Feel in Person
1. Look your best- You should look your best when you plan to tell your crush how you feel for them. But don’t dress up to the nines if you rock in your casual look or don’t put on a brand new outfit if you are always seen in cozy clothes. Remember the key here is to look your best without being too obvious about it. Just get a bit more dressed up and groomed than you normally do. This will boost up your confidence when you will share your feelings.
2. Pick the right time and place to do it- To get the best results, you must pick the time when you and your crush can be fairly alone in absolutely stress free environment. Pick a time like after school, college or at a group event when you know you can take them away to chat for a while.
3. Tell your crush you want to talk about something- Don’t make it a big deal instead make it sound like you have to ask for help with some assignment or something. Let your crush know that you wanna talk in one on one setting but there’s no pressure of having any serious conversation. Try making it casual without make it sound too casual would be better.
4. Make your crush comfortable- Don’t immediately spit out the words, “Hey, I Like You” because it may make them little uncomfortable, awkward or confused about why you are alone. Instead make them comfortable by making some silly joke, poking yourself at fun or laughing bit extra on what they say. Laughing will put your crush in a more positive frame of mind and make them more receptive to whatever you want to say.

5. Spit it Out- Now there’s no need to delay. Once you guys are alone and you have made your crush comfortable, tell them how you feel. The sooner you say it, the better and the less likely you’ll make yourself nervous. Just be direct or polite and say, “Hey, I wanted to tell you that I have a crush on you” or you can say something like, “I really like hanging out with you and wants you to know that I have feelings for you”. Remember when you tell your crush, look straight into their eyes and be confident about it.
6. Wait for the reaction- Don’t immediately put pressure on your crush for their response. Take a deep breath, step back and wait for your crush to respond. Your crush may immediately say that they share feelings or maybe they need some time to think about it. If they like you, it’s good and if not, just play cool after you put your cards on the table. Respect their response, be whatever it is.
Step 3- Tell Your Crush In Other Ways
1. Tell them about your feeling over phone- Telling your crush in person will make you look confident while saying it on the phone would be the worst way to do it. But if you are really shy telling your crush how you feel about them, then revealing it on the phone is the next best bet. Just say Hello and make them comfortable with casual talk or some joke and say, “I wanted to tell you something and then reveal your feelings”.
2. Tell them with a cute note- Putting a cute note in your crush’s locker, notebook, or bag will be a nice way to tell them how you really feel. Just write something very nice revealing your true feelings for them. But be careful with the notes as they can be lost or passed around. Putting the note at the right place and time can be a pleasant surprise for your crush.
3. Make them a playlist- You can send them a mix of love songs that literally spells out your true feelings for them. Sending your crush a playlist would definitely be a thoughtful and clever way to confess your feelings. Check out the playlist- Songs about liking someone.
4. Ask them for a casual date- If you are nervous about sharing your feelings, you can simply sidestep the situation by asking your crush to hang out with you. Ask them you have extra tickets for movie and invite your crush along. Or you can ask them if they want to go for a walk, grab snacks when they are hungry, etc. Asking them to hang out solo will make your feelings obvious enough for your crush to do more of the work when they figure it out.
