Ever Had A Strong Feeling For Someone But Didn't Say?

Well a multi faceted topic there.
I have never felt strongly towards any girl and kept it to myself.
Maybe in my primary school days . I think my 'feeling' organ was still developing then cuzz i was feeling for every fine girl i saw then (almost on a daily basis) and my line then was always maria, folake or anita kanyu borrow (sic) me your pencil?
So obviously that wont pass for "feelings" here.

But I had an experience close to that with the only girl i ever 'loved'.
I actually told her. In fact the toasting session was on March 8th, 1999. It lasted 8hrs. It was done at 'Love Garden', Education faculty, UNILAG. But she refused. Na rain seperate us that day.
I am still happy, its the first time i will toast a girl and i didn't mess up. I told her everything on my mind.
She refused anyway. We were both 17 then.

Yes she ended up with another guy later on. I didn't blame myself anyway cuzz i knew i did my best.

It didn't work out.

For 5 years...i kept pestering her. Even sent her wonderful gifts via FEDEX. I knew she liked me but obviously didn't want a relationship with me.

I made up my mind to keep her as a friend. She then changed her mind last yr when the guy messed up. She had serious problems at work and with her health. I was there for her. She then gave up on the guy and has been 'disturbing me since. unfortunately i am no longer interested. partly because I've overgrown the fantasy and partly because i can't really say she is in love with me.

Whew.!!

awww... that's cute paddy pat.

it happened a long time ago. there was the neighbor of mine (we were all family friends) but i wasnt bold enough to say it. now that am old and can say anything, i can't say it because it is too late.

but am happy it never happened because i would v hurt her. i was too much of an hit and run person that i ran over everything on my path. now that am old, i know better...

   

i wonder if this thread is for boys alone .but i hv to tell de house my experience too.
theres this guy i really loved so much but never got the chance to tell him ,we were in de same department  , anytime he sits near me my body reacts,i could not tell him because i was shy , but i really loved him , hes intelligent , gentle, beautiful body and humble. we later went 4 our service and never met again then i met someone else who made me to forget him , until one day i ran into him in my office , we begin 2 communicate again , but i dnt love him like before , he tells me he has loved always loved me but then it was late.since we just talk on phone

Yeah, I've experienced this thing too:
The lady in question is now with BP in the UK, and married to my friend/acquaintance. We met right here in Warri. We were both around for our six month Industrial Training, some 6 years ago. I practically got stucked with her calm and composed self. Her beauty (to me, is unparralelled) She's so bright at school -she made a first class in Petroleum Engineering. I think if any boy wants brain and beauty combined, this lady's got all. She was altogether humble.

At a stage, I felt I've come across an angel! Gosh!

>Why couldn't you say it?
I guess it's because we were still students.  And I was a bit afraid, I've never had to talk to a girl about my feelings for her! wow!!
But I sure did when I met my wife. I summoned all the courage needed to start the discussion. And It was a cool ride.

>Did he/she end up with someone that hurt him/her and did you blame yourself for that?
I don't think so. She told me some two weeks ago that she's very happy in her marriage

>Do you think it would or wouldn't have worked out?
I believe it would have worked out. But you see, I found someone else, just when I thought all hope was lost.  And this one has everything I need in a woman.
 
>For how long did you live in that world of fantasy where you wished you were locked in a relationship with him/her?
Until I met my real hearthrob.  And that's it

right now i have this strong crush on someone
with the rate my feelings are going
am going to fall in love with him
i can't seem to stop my heart
cause it is out of control!

but as a girl i can never make the move

Re: Ever Had A Strong Feeling For Someone But Didn't Say?

Well, there was this guy in my hostel in the secondary school. He was big and black, a brute and a bully. I really had this very strong feeling for him - I wished I could crush his small head in my hand. Alas, I didn't -couldn't- say so. He was twice my size, you see. . .

 

Well, I could have spoken up, I suppose. But that was when I had this huge crush on you, remember? Having two front teeth less wasn't going to help my cause one bit, you see.

Not so, sweetheart. I had you covered. I knew that you had a preference for guys like me - with a complete set of teeth. I always do my homework, you know.

Nope. I never get F9. I knew you liked the small, attractive ones not the size of two whole teeth. So I got one.

Yes. A*.

C'mon Genial, u are sooooo funny, u had my head spinning, i was thinking so who's this guy, is he gay or what,  until i got the beef

u peeps want kill me with laughter

Even if i love first i can't not say, (african mentality), let him love and i will help him to say it, i have done it before and will do it again, come on guys

and now that i have spotted you slinking in the shadows i shall be in your face as well.
nothing is respected. nothing sacred.

Well is it not funny how every girl that is replying to this thread is like they were "crushing" in silence? It is really pathetic what we ladies are going through so as not to look bad, not that it matters anyway.

Okay @ topic,

   There is this guy that I used to have a crush on in my first year in the university in 2000, he was in his 3rd year. He graduated in my 2nd year and I never got to see him again because he went to further in the States. In July this year, I received a mail on my hi5 page(thank God for hi5) from someone and discovered it was him and he was like "hi". We got talking on yahoo messenger and on phone but not about serious issues because I was already engaged to be married. Sometime last month, I discovered some shocking revelations about my supposed fiance so I had to take a walk. I and Bassey are actually getting really chummy. Just last week he told me he had always had feelings for me back then in school but did not know how to tell me because I always seemed busy.
  We got really open and we told each other things we used to feel in school ( on yahoo messenger of course). He even told me different clothes I wore on some days to school, mentioned one blue dress I wore on a particular day. He is coming back in January to actually see me again and get to know me more, not just over the net.I am so happy and feel so good.I could just sit and start smiling sillily to myself because I know that I am almost in love and am also loved( to the best of my knowledge). I pray this is actually for real. Not expecting much but well, we all start from somewhere.
