"Old hippies don't die, they just lie low until the laughter stops and their time comes round again." - Joseph Gallivan

I have a question about love for you. I'm in love with a guy. I want to express my love to him, but the last time i told a guy i had feelings for him, he really hurt me. i need advice on what to do because i am scared.

Every guy is different. Most guys will run away if you lay it all out. Remember, some guys are afraid too. And there are other, more subtle ways of expressing your feelings without coming right out with it (because that demands a reply).

I think you probably shouldn't tell any guy how deep your feelings are until you've gotten to know him well. By then your feelings may have changed.

In the meantime, look him in the eyes and see what's there. Is he looking back? Can you talk to him? Does he listen to you? You first have to establish communication before you can get serious with someone. This can take awhile. Don't have expectations. If you don't have expectations, you won't be disappointed if things don't work out. Don't be afraid. Just do it! That doesn't mean have sex, that means just go with the flow and don't think about. Just live in the moment and let your love flow.

May you find true love!
The Old Hippy
