Sometimes it’s hard to confront your feelings concerning the object of your affection, or at the very least you don’t want to scare him off. So why actually tell him you like him when you can do it in so many other more subtle and confusing ways? Not only does avoiding those self-fulfilling words stall inevitable conversations about “us,” but you can leave your pesky emotions to when they’re best expressed (read: when you’re both wildly intoxicated).
- “I logged out of your Seamless account.”
- *Answers text that came in at 4:45 a.m.* “You rode in on your white horse too late.”
- “If all else fails, I’ll see you after the second marriage.”
- “We can mismatch my dress and your tie to wear your fraternity’s colors at formal.”
- “There’s a hand-picked fall shopping list in your inbox that’s basically a J.Crew and Brooks Brothers catalog.”
- “I deleted Tinder.”
- “Here’s your credit card. You left it on my dresser after we made that Rowdy Gentleman order.”
- “Dude, I would totally get a prenup for you.”
- “I brought you Five Guys.”
- “You can pry your sweatshirt out of my cold, dead hands.”
- “Don’t worry, you’ll get into grad school. Worst case scenario you can just sleep with an admissions officer.”
- “You can stop taking my fashion blog pictures. I’ll find someone else–I know how much you hate it.”
- “You know what? You can have my General Tso’s leftovers.”
- “Fine, I’ll stop tweeting our conversations.”
- “Go ahead on your boys’ weekend. No really, it’s fine.”
