Right, say there is this person you're fairly into, how would you show them? Would you tell them straight out or drop hints? If so, what hints?
This should be interesting:)
I've tended to go with the open and honest approach, and more often than not it's the best way to go
Dropping hints can get messy, because different people might read the same signs very differently. It can be fun to play along a little bit, and dropping hints can be a big part of that, but the only way to be sure is to be direct. Maybe try to build up to it, rather than just blurting it out. If you've already had the chance to get to know the person a bit, then they've obviously let you hang around long enough 
There's no guaranteed route to success though, as every human being is unique.0 -

Definitely true BUT you should be able to gather some sort of idea of how they feel about you from previous interactions. Don't go declaring your love to someone who never replies to your texts, ignores you in conversations, avoids being alone with you etc. You'll only be setting yourself up for heartbreak. However, if ye get on well together, chat frequently, meet up often (alone or in groups) and you get a general positive vibe from them, then honesty is the best way to go. Hints can and will only end in confusion.0 -
Erm, I guess I'd be fairly honest/blunt about it tbh. I learned a long time ago that hints don't work (men do not get hints generally :P).
Put it this way, hinting and looking for hints in what someone else says for that matter just builds things up way too much. Your expectations are way too high, and it could be ages before you find out if they even like you! And if they didn't, you'd be more disappointed than if you'd just told them earlier. If you just tell them and they don't like you in return, that's it. No silly drawn-out saga. And if they do, \o/.
Honesty works, despite how horribly nerve-wracking it is. It does take a lot of courage to tell someone you like them, but hey, it works. 0 -

Why even tell them you like them.Just use a classy line such as "I think your a roide!" Or else go up to them sniffing and say something like "Is that cinnamon?"
Guaranteed to work!
May not work
does this rag smell like chloroform to You???
:pac:
i joke. Direct option is usually best, but not always as i have found.0 -

u" written on it through her window at 3 in the morning. Girls go crazy for that. I also find women love it when you shout at them obnoxiously and demand a sandwich regardless of where you are. Advertisement
