Should I confess my feelings to my stepbrother?

I would really appreciate some advice

To cut a long story short I am in love with my stepbrother and I really do not know if I can tell him.

Each others parents are not married which makes things easier and my stepbrother and I are both single adults so there are no issues about causing trouble for them.

We only met a few years ago so its not like we grew up together and I fell in love the moment I saw him, we are both living away from home in different cities but i still cannot get my feelings out of my head. Whenever I see him my feelings are as strong as ever, ive never felt like this about anyone. We are very much on the same wavelength and often go out just the two of us.

We have fooled around before, only spooning and touching which we have never spoken about since. My mom has made jokey comments before that we would be good together but ive never been brave enough to act upon it

What do you think would be the best way to confess and should I confess at all? I am positive this is not a crush as I have had these feelings for so long. Is texting him a cowardly way of doing this?? Rejection scares me but at the same time he is such a damn good looking guy with an awesome personality I dont want to miss a chance and regret it forever

Cerberus_Raphael agony auntIf you are going to confess it, texting is definitely NOT the way to go about it. You have to do it face to face. You really cannot do much wrong in telling him directly as long as you push these fears away. Rejection is not that bad. If you are faced with rejection, you'll get over it and you'll move on.

Technically there is nothing wrong with dating him since, there really isn't anything tying you two together in terms of family. Your parent's aren't even married. Your mother seems all for it, I'm pretty sure she sees something there. Just meet up with him and tell him how you feel about him over a drink. Not alcoholic, I mean coffee or tea. You both need to be sober for this. Don't think about what might happen too much, just focus on actually telling him and just go with whatever happens next.

I hope that helps.
