"I like you" 👀

Saying "I like you" usually isn't enough to convince most people that you aren't simply playing the game and saying the same thing to everyone else. Next time try telling the person you're interested in *why* you like them. Go into detail if you can. Are they funny? Kind? Intelligent? Thoughtful? Unique? Etc. Whatever they are to you, tell them. If you think you've connected with someone enough to move past the "crush" phase and are entering into the "like" phase, try letting them know what it is about them that has piqued your interest beyond the superficial. Most people will respond positively to having another person acknowledge things in them that others don't take the time to notice or point out Good luck out there y'all (edited)

Once I receive this " I love you so much , you are the sweetest guy I ever meet, I love you alot.... as a friend 💀

2y

Honestly i only pay attention to actions and eventually check if they match bullsh1ts ... but i appreciate them 😂🤣

2y

I had a couple of people tell me how they like me because I am driven, ambitious, strong and chill. For me this is something very superficial and shows they have been paying attention at the first layer thinking how best to make use of the fact I am all those things.

2y

I know why they like me. I need to see how much i.e. in the form of a castle 😌

2y

I agree that you should share your feelings and be honest about them. But sometimes people know what you want to hear so they could easily trick you if they are that kind of person. So it's even more important to let them show you how they feel or vice versa. Words can lie, actions don't :)

2y

This is good. Introverts have trouble expressing themselves and their feelings especially when frozen by the seeming awe struck presence & personality of another. You helped to provide a guide and direction to any and all who need it. Thank you!

2y

And to clarify "I like you" is not a brilliant opening line however you qualify it. People should try "I was interested in knowing more about ___".

Nice advice I must say. But I get numb over words 🫠

2y

I have said something to this effect to the person I recently began liking. I haven't seen them for awhile now. I am noticing the challenging part of holding on to hope at this time. We haven't had the chance to do anything together yet. I find during this period the days seem to drag by not hearing from them.

2y

I appreciate this but I'm 2 months too late she's already been back with her ex since memorial day lol didn't know until today

2y

Liking someone is fine. It is when you "like like" someone that there is a problem. That gets into hand holding territory and there is no place in our modern, decent society for that kind of debauchery.

2y

Thankyou for your kind advice

2y

@Tracy Well maybe the other person needs to sort their trust issues instead of demanding the person to go an extra mile

2y

Furst i gotta have a geniuine convo with them

2y

People have been using "I like you" too much that it just becomes so much more insignificant when people hear it. But hearing the reasons helps make your point and also shows the other person that you truly care and observe but if you are just saying it for the sake of saying it then you are better off helping yourself out

2y

I mean, sure. Tell them why you like them, it wont hurt if you're at that stage. But you still gotta be pretty specific about it, or you'll still end up generic. An awful lotta trouble that can backfire easily. I usually stick with simple "i like you" but say it when driven to say it. Usually in bed.

2y

It's heavily dependent on the individuals involved. Some of us are easily flustered and anxious when it comes to someone who interests us, so just being able to get an "I like you" or something similar out is already a tremendous feat.

2y

That's so deep and true, but the worst that can happen is you telling the person that you like him/her, telling why you like him/her and then he/she tells you that he/she likes you like a friend or broher/sister 💀😶

2y

Great advice

2y

Fine Tracy. I love you.

2y

Yes!! My ex told me he loved me, next day he broke up with Me. Like if you don't mean it, please don't say it until you're sure of it.

2y

Ngl I needed this, sometimes I’ll be way too passive. Idk I do need to work on it😭😂

2y

Overall,being good is not enough,you or your partner must have understanding,love,loyalty,trust,attention and some other things,otherwise it will end at some point for sure. People think that love is the main thing,No. If your partner has everything but cannot understand you, then it's over, in my opinion, understanding is way more important than love.

2y

Thing is, when it gets real, most of the people who are unsure ghost or run away which then causes the person to second guess themselves so when something comes up next time with a new person they are more worried about being hurt than letting their guard down. It's a vicious cycle amongst the human race

2y

Completely agree, sometimes the person needs more than just an I like you, people need to be able describe how they feel towards that other person

2y

I like you because you spell etc. wrong.

2y

RAWR means I love you in dinosaur..lol

2y

Damn, a lot of dudes on here trying to get some Tracy without having good health insurance 💀🚑

2y

Honestly as far as advice goes, pretty based

2y

This is good advice but I'm going to keep with my strategy of bottling up all emotions and getting extremely shy around pretty girls. I'm gonna have a girlfriend before 2260 you watch

2y

💯

2y

Untill you meet in person and know him/her for real, I'm totally fine with "unmotivated like". No need to complicate the matter. How can you know why you like a person from a photo and a standardized description? (edited)

2y

But still get ghosted because not attractive enough.

2y

I think it depends on the situation. Telling someone "I like you" is a big deal to me and at that point I already showered you with compliments.

2y

💯💯💯

2y

Most females if you take action or talk nice will put you in the friend zone or will put you on the back burner

2y

I definitely think people should put the effort into messaging someone with a reasonable level of detail. Playing devil's advocate however; there are many people who simply will not get back to you for a whole host of reasons, therefore, maintaining that level of detail following one's assessment of a member's profile is very difficult to sustain. There is also a very high probability that a person either hasn't been honest in their profile, or didn't put the effort into their profiles themselves. So a person is off to a non-starter from the get-go because they are assessing and expounding upon inaccuracies from the start. It's one of the flaws of Online dating. I will commend Boo, though, for giving people the opportunity to chat in threads. At least people have a chance to display their personalities and level of intelligence within threads. The Female and Male experience on dating apps are like chalk and cheese, and both perspectives come with inevitable challenges.
