A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I met this guy. He's so sweet. He has been single for a little over a year. I have just been texting him for almost two years and I have had a secret crush on him ever since. I want to tell him but im scared. He said he wants to stay single but I was wondering if maybe me liking him would change his mind. Should I tell him? I don't want it awkward after if he doesnt.

i wouldn't say you can 'change' the way he feels or his mind. But if you've liked him for a long time tell him. If you can in person write a letter to him.

he may say that he wants to be single because he doesn't like any one etc etc.

But dont put too much hope in it. Cant change a man.

but dont leave yourself wondering 'what if'

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (1 March 2010):

NEVER EVER think that you can change a man. You can't. If history has taught (or should have taught) women one thing, it's that a man must change from within. There are millions of women who have made the mistake of believing they can make a man change. They can't. If he has said he wants to remain single, don't think for a moment you can change him. He has said he wants to be single, and that's it. I know that hurts, but it's best you know the truth now, and that it that a man will only change when he wants to, and not before.

Don't scare him away. If you like him than stay close, but don't project your feelings onto him. You will get hurt and he will be gone. Give it time and it may go your way.
