First off I am Bipolar and I used to say that I didn't believe in love, I guess to try to just not feel. I'm not very good at feeling! I try, but sometimes my emotions get jumbled and I get lost! Then my anxiety takes over and I break down. With all that being said thats why I guess I tried to just not feel the strong emotions. But now, as hard as I have tried to ignore it, I have fallen for this guy. It has been three years that I have liked him and I can't get over it, I have tried! Everyone keeps telling me that I should tell him, but Im so scared! The thing is I don't know what scares me more that fact that he doesn't like me or the fact that if he does I don't think that I deserve to be loved!
I think that in the end I should tell him.
Im just so scared and I honestly don't think that I deserve to be loved.

hi mermaidblackrose
i would recommend counseling to deal with the fact that you do not feel deserving of love. it would be a shame to finally get together with this guy and then sabotage the relationship because you feel this way. welcome to psych central. you will find we have several forums where you can post about your concerns and receive feedback from other members. you will get a lot of support here. again, welcome

Everyone deserves to love and be loved.

How often do you interact with this guy? Where do you know him from? I once score a pair of tickets to a Bruins game through one job, and invited a fellow coworker from a different site and my second job to come with me. Sometimes icebreakers work better than feelings talks...

Tell him how you feel. You have nothing to lose because you don't have him now anyway, right? So, tell him. And every person deserves love, so why you would not? Don't think that way. Love is beautiful and we all need it.

you SO deserve love. please don't give up on yourself. everybody deserves love.
