Be sure to wear something you feel is comfortable. If you know your crush’s favorite smell or color, be sure to wear that.
Don’t trick your crush into thinking you’re something else when you’re not. If you do, it will all change and he or she will see your true colors in time and may regret being with you.
Carry conversations with your crush every now and then. Build these up to daily chats, hellos and acknowledgments as much as possible. You can have chats in person or even just on Facebook or other social media site. Although your crush might like you too, don’t make it look like you are easygoing by replying immediately on online chats––play a little hard to get! If your crush doesn’t reply straight away then he or she might be talking to someone else who is more important at this point in time; don’t push it.
Be sure not to insult their interests unless it’s in a teasing way (don’t be harsh!).
If you have been talking to your crush on Facebook/Twitter/in person, just make sure that you don’t tell your friends personal things that your crush talks to you about as he or she might not trust you and won’t tell you stuff you want to know if this is found out. Your crush may tell you things he or she is too embarrassed or shy to say to anyone else, so guard that secrecy well.
Equally, check that your crush hasn’t just had a break up as he or she might just want you to feel good by saying anything or might be stringing you along as a form of rebound revenge. Do not tell them you like someone else romantically. This could push them away, and if you tell them your feelings they might think of you as unfaithful having talked about someone else not long before.
If you’re feeling shy or afraid, remind yourself that if you don’t ask, you could be crushing on each other for the rest of your lives and it’ll never get sorted out.
Deal with rejection as best you can. Don’t get crushed by a crush. Sometimes it just isn’t meant to be. But stay positive and remember that there are plenty of fish in the sea and this match simply wasn’t meant to be.
