Dear alizee2007:

You wrote to me: “Question is- how do I do that?”

My answer: in an adequately private setting, away from others, ask him if it is okay with him that you share with him something very private, that you do not expect him to respond right there and then, and so, after you share, you will walk away so to give him space.

If he clearly states that it is okay with him, then tell him how you have felt about him for so long, just as you shared it here, on your thread, and tell him that with enthusiasm.

Then walk away.
