How can I say what I mean to him without getting all tongue tied?

Question - (21 March 2010) 6 Answers - (Newest, 21 March 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have seen this guy for about two weeks. He seems like a good guy and I would like it to work out for us. Unfortunately, I am not very good at reading people's character and know about them deep down. I can have a good laugh but when it comes to issues, like how to phrase a sentence to get something, I become stuck. I guess it sounds daft, but I am an only child with a small circle or family and friends. Although it is not an excuse, I believe it is not too late to learn. However, I would like to know if there is a 'method' as I would either like our relationship to work out, or fail but know that I have done my best and could have done no more. Please help.

IHateWomanBeaters agony auntexplain whatever you want to say as simply as possible...

I HATE to beat around the bush constantly with people.

Say what you mean, and mean what you say.

Be direct.

He would appreciate it in every circumstance, as any adult should.

Laura1318 agony auntWith guys, it is better to be simple and direct and they can understand. Just tell then what you want .Don't give hint's because they don't get it.

Don't beat about the bush. Give them straight from your heart or mind.

Be yourself and be natural.

Just spend alot of time talking to him and the more you do, the more you'll open up without realizing how far you've come, along the way. Everytime you feel shy, ask something about him, and everytime you want something, tell him, without hesitation. Be kind, not too demanding, and he'll treat you with respect and honor your intentions.

Entirely Unique agony auntIf you really feel you can't do this in spoken words because you don't think you'll be able to express or get the right words together to do so then try writing it, least that way you can get your words down and read them back to yourself, make adjustments etc until you get it just right.

It's only been two weeks so just relax and slow down to get to know him better. Stay light hearted and it's too early yet to discuss issues and serious things or you will probably scare him off.
