Calling all guys: What is the best way for me to tell a guy I like him? What manner do you generally prefer, or do you prefer not to know at all if someone likes you? I apologize for the simplicity and naivety of this question, I'm just clueless and desperate for advice from anyone.
P.S: I'm putting this under the "art" category as my question doesn't fit any of the categories, so I'm asking for the advice on the "art of romance", if you please.

If you want to tell a guy you like him, the best approach depends on his personality and your comfort level. Putting yourself out there can be nerve-wracking, but honestly, most guys appreciate directness. I'd want to know in a way that feels natural and not overly pressured. A casual but sincere approach works best—something like, "Hey, I really enjoy spending time with you, and I think I might like you more than just a friend. What do you think?" Some prefer a direct approach—just casually saying, "Hey, I really like you, and I wanted to let you know." If you’re comfortable being upfront, something simple like, “Hey, I really like you, and I just wanted to let you know” can be refreshing. It shows confidence and honesty, which many people appreciate.Some guys might prefer hints, like extra attention, compliments, or playful teasing, but if you really want clarity, being upfront saves a lot of overthinking. Worst case? He doesn’t feel the same, and you move on knowing you were brave enough to express yourself. Best case? He feels the same, and you both get to see where it goes. Either way, you win by being honest.Ultimately, the best way is the one that feels natural to you. If he likes you back, great! If not, you can move forward without regrets, knowing you were brave enough to express yourself. Either way, you’ll learn something valuable."I'm not a guy, but I want to help you with your studies."
