Hi. There is a girl I have liked for quite some time now. For a long period of time, I just liked her and didn't really do anything about it. I think after time she began to catch on, and figure out that I liked her. It is extremely hard to start conversations with her, because I get really nervous. I think I can sort that out by myself though.
It began to near the holidays, and I knew this would be the perfect time to give her a great gift. I went to a Jewelry store, and got her a beautiful glass necklace case for about $50, and wrapped it neatly. I put a card on it that said this.
"Dear ----,
I have felt strongly for you for quite some time. For a good portion of that time, I didn't have to courage to tell you. I think this is the perfect time to tell you though. I will be honest and say for the last 2 years I have loved you very much, and I will no longer deny it.
Sincerely, Danny."
I rode up on my bike, and left it on her doorstep, rang the doorbell, and rode away. In the distance, I could see her open the door and grab the box. She Messaged me later online telling me that was a very nice thing to do.
Do you think she was being honest? Or do you think she thought it was creepy and weird. She is very respectful to me, and has never given me a bad look or attitude. Help would be nice.. Thanks.

It was a "nice" thing to do, but the manner in which you did it is abnormal. She didn't seem to take it the wrong way, however. Might as well hope for the best.

Well it's hard to know without knowing her, but if she isn't acting weird then I wouldn't worry. It would have been more impressive to tell her that to her face though.

Yeah I know. And thinking back I kinda regret I had not done that. Her birthday is coming up, so I might try to make one last stand :tease:

I would be careful. If she said it was nice, it means she did appreciate the gift, but she didn't mention anything in specific about how she felt. That either means she's unsure, or her feelings for you aren't the same as yours are for her. This is the hard part, I know, but you have to talk to her. If you *really* can't get yourself to do it in person, have an online conversation, but don't spend your money on her again until you've had this talk. If she only sees you as a friend, she may feel uncomfortable with you giving her another gift.

Yeah, you don't have to buy her something to express how you feel.

If you're shy then try messaging her back and seeing what she says.

I don't think you should have gone as far as to say you "love" her. I put it in quotes because you should have used the word "like" or "strong feelings".
My rule is, even if you do feel that way about someone, you shouldn't tell them until at least 1 and 1/2 month(s) into the relationship.
As a couple of course.

Agreed. The word "love" is a strong word packed with feeling for boys and girls alike (girls a little more). It was pretty risky, but i think you should be good on that.
If I were you, I wouldn't buy another gift. If you really want to, I'd make her something. Don't gush it up either, keep it simple and tell her you got the gift because you wanted to do something nice for her. Be sweet, but not overly romantic.
The main thing is to do it face to face. Women like it when guys have the courage to do so. I've asked a couple of girls out in notes (aaah, 8th grade) and all said no. When i've asked in person, the number was way up.
All in all, good luck.
