Is it normal for a girl to confess her feelings first?

Okay, I actually like a guy for almost 10 years since I was high school. And well actually I forgot about him since I entered college but before I graduated I recall I added him first on Facebook and he accepted it without even asking who am I. So after I graduated from college I never thought after maybe 2-3 years ago I started thinking about him again. Then There come to a point that I told my friends about it. But the major break was last year of 2014( about 10 months almost) when my friend intentionally chatted him( on Facebook we never talked but we're friends there for 4 years). So that's the time that he notices me. And I started liking his post til now. Actually last year after that event he started chatting me (sort of getting to know me). after that, that was the last conversation we had. And last new year I even greeted him "happy new year" and he responded to me "happy new year" as well. So I'm quite hesitating if I'll tell him that I like him for a long time or not. I need some advice if it's okay for a girl to confess first -_

    Doesn't matter what gender confesses first.
    Just tell him if you want him to know how you feel.

    However, don't expect a relationship considering how on and off your contact with each other is. You should probably figure out if he even has a girlfriend or not.

    you should do a little information seeking about him on fb,see what he talks about what his interest are,and make some more attempts to talk to him. And if you chat with him keep the conversation going long enough to talk about the past such as high school.Talk about things he might have been there for like an assembly or something,and recalling something funny happening,after awhile talk about high school days just randomly say honestly I have had a bit of crush on you sense then,and see where that takes you. If hes interested he should respond fairly quickly if he takes quite a bit interest,and may start kind of flirting with you.Check to see if he has more girls on his fb,or if he has an equal amount of men and women.If he has a lot of girls chances are his a bit of a player and wont respond to quickly may avoid what you had said or just stop talking cause he like most people who are slightly kind don't want to awkwardly tell you they don't like you like that. Just take a risk,and it may be worth it,its better to know than to spend more years with a crush. hope I was of some help.

    My girlfriend told me first, helped me to realize my own feelings for her.

  • Bleeeeh, overall I don't think it matters if you confess it to him, some guys like that, I prefer it myself. However I would suggest you get to know him a little more, feel him out a bit (not literally despite how much I can tell you want to ;) ). I imagine that confessing your feelings just to become aware that the feeling isn't mutual would be a bit crushing.

    See if he likes chatting to you more, even if you initiate the converation. If he's responsive and carries on the conversation and isn't all blunt with his responses, then confess to him. :)

    all of your comments are really true and I might take those advice seriously, it's really worth reading and I guess this can help me out. I'll try sorting all of it and decide what's applicable for that guy I'm crushing for ages. THANKS guys!!
