Boyfriend trouble!

OK so in July I meet this guy (unexpectedly, wasn't looking for anything, you know?); anyway shockingly we hit it off and it kind of becomes 'official' in August (you know, FB status' change etc) and it's all going great.

We don't get to see much of eachother but when we do we have a really great time, also he's not going to be about for much longer due to work so time is kind of playing tricks with me because at the moment it is going waaay to fast.

The problem is, the poor fella seems to have quite low self-confidence and just doesn't get how frigging great he actually is, I mean he's smart, funny (seriously, he has me in fits so I get a stitch), he's a total nerd, flipping lush looking, great to talk to...everything a gal could ask for tbh but he just doesn't realise it!

Nor do I think he knows how much I like him, I mean there's nothing not to like about him and we get on really well...I just want to let him know how awesome I think he is, because well you know what it's like when you leave stuff unsaid then BAM before you know it you never get the chance and end up kicking yourself.

Just what should I do about it eh?

This is what qualifies for relationship trouble these days?

Tell him straight out, us blokes aren't complicated. Girls fannying around not saying what they actually mean makes things complicated. ;)

First off, forget about subtle hints. We´re men. We can not compute subtle hints. No chance. You could paint a heart and his initials in 10´tall letters right across his house wall and he´d still have a good chance of not gettin it. If you want to say something to a male human and you want to get it past his mental barrier, just say it as directly and briefly as possible. Don´t use too many words. Buffer overflow error might occur, CPU usage 100%, system shut-off and stuff...not good. Simple sentences, straight to the point, that´s the way to go.

If he´s one of the people with a low self confidence, it´s kinda tricky to get your message across, because those people even have a higher resistance roll against compliments. He´d probably think you´re kidding or you´re just being nice to him (i.e. you don´t really mean it).

No, why do you ask?

And Ezteq, just tell him. Take him out to dinner or something.

As opposed to what everyone else is saying, i would strongly suggest saying nothing of the sort. Just continue as you are and let things take there natural course.

As the others said telling him you think he's great is a very good thing, especially since I have a feeling you are already pretty good at showing him. :)

:D !

This was way better than a PM :wub: Message received and understood.

I don't seem to be able to find any decent rooftops to shout from right now, so this thread will have to do :)

Being with you is beyond awesome! There's not even a word strong enough to express it!!

Just sat here grinning from ear to ear heh - I can't even think of a decent bacon analogy to do this justice! :)

Ummm yea :D This was definitely pretty damn great :)

People with low self-esteem and confidence usually have a had time accepting that they are anything form of good, be persistent over-time I guess.
