Confession is always a challenging task, especially when it comes to expressing our feelings to someone we adore secretly. However, sometimes, we feel the surge of emotions, and it becomes difficult to keep it inside, and that's when we need to step up and express our love to the person whom we admire.
As a teenager, I have experienced the same anxiety and excitement that everyone goes through in this phase. There was someone whom I had a crush on, and I wanted to express my feelings to her, but I was too timid to do so. I didn't want her to know that I had fallen for her as it might become awkward between us, and I didn't want to lose her as my friend.
Therefore, I decided to express my feelings in a subtle and hidden way. I started leaving notes with hidden messages, small presents with clues pointing towards my affection for her, and started writing letters with my heartfelt emotions, without revealing my name. She responded to my advances, and we started conversing a lot more, and I could sense the connection between us growing.
However, after a while, I realized that it was not fair to her or myself to keep hiding my feelings. I knew that if I wanted to take the relationship to another level, I needed to express myself openly, and that's when I confessed. The moment was intense, and though it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to, it helped me grow and learn from my experience.
In conclusion, expressing our feelings to someone we admire is never easy, but keeping it hidden forever is worse. Sometimes, it's best to take the risk, speak your heart out and see what the future holds. If the person reciprocates your feelings, then that's great, and if not, don't let it discourage you from finding the right person who will appreciate and cherish your love.
