"I like you a lot"
A sentence as openly as "I love you" does not come easily from everyone's lips. However, especially when carefully getting to know each other or at the beginning of a relationship, it can be very valuable for both partners to speak openly about feelings.
In order to be able to admit feelings towards another person, you should first of all be able to admit your feelings towards yourself.
To like someone and admit it
- In a relationship you should be able to speak openly about your feelings. This can be very important, especially at the beginning, when you have just got to know each other and are now taking the first cautious steps towards each other.
- However, you can only admit feelings towards the other that you are fully aware of. So the first important step is to admit your feelings.
- You can admit feelings in different ways. If you express it clearly verbally - for example in the sentence "I am very fond of you" or even "I love you" - this is the clearest commitment.
- If you find it difficult to express yourself directly, there are other ways to at least hint at your feelings.

Give clues to feelings
- A bouquet of red roses, loving looks or a long, firm hug - all of these can be signs of feelings.
- If you do not express your feelings clearly verbally, however, you can never be sure whether your signs will be understood that clearly by the person opposite you.
- Signs can therefore be a first step, but they should not replace a clear commitment to the other. They can, however, provide more help than you can then test how the other person reacts to the indications of their feelings.
- If you admit feelings, you may have to expect that the other person will not reciprocate them. However, this possibility should not prevent you from standing by your own feelings - because nothing is good sadder than when two people don't get together just because neither of them dared to talk about their feelings speak.
Talking about your own feelings is not easy for many people. Before you make a verbal confession of love or tell someone how much you like them, you can use various hints to indicate your feelings.
