Took courage, but I told him.....?

I have known this guy for about 2 years. We met in my office building , so the first time I met him he was flirty asking if I wanted his phone number and would stop by and say hello to me.

He then asked me out to lunch and dinner we went out quite a few times, he has given me beautiful gifts. He texts me, calls me, hugs me, visits me and is always sweet. Yes he is flirty as well in his texts.

I have grown to like him because I got to know him, he has never tried to kiss me or has never been inappropriate.

Well I thought about it and didn't know how to tell him so, I texted him that I liked him and that he is really a nice guy that I just wanted to let him know that but didn't know how to express that.

Well it took courage and he has not responded...............I am a bit now embarrassed and trying to figure things out and wondering if I made a mistake of telling him.

Mature advice and answers only, please share your experiences and opinions..... Thanks

Update:

Everyone who has answered has given me great feedback, you all have valid points and if I could I would give you all 5 stars!!!! Thanks you all put my mind at ease.

    Sometimes you just have to take a chance. I admire your courage. I don't know how long it's been since you texted, but perhsps he hasn't looked at his phone. Sometimes, it would be hours before I check my phone. He could be somewhere there is a lot of noise and can't hear the sound that a text came in, or maybe he's thinking how to say he likes you too. Know this: whatever happens, please don't regret what you did. Life is full of opportunities and you made a decision not to let this one pass you by. You go, girl !!

    If that's how you felt, you did the right thing. The next move is on him. Maybe he hasn't responded because he's in shock and trying to find the right words to send you back or waiting to see you in person. Or maybe he's not in a position to text you at this time. Give it a few minutes but do not text him again.

    I agree with Fran. Often guys like to see you get a bit worried. I'm sure he's just busy - don't fret!

    Keep in mind though, often guys are flirty at the office. He might just be a natural flirt, so don't be hurt if he doesn't feel the same way.

    I hope it works out!

    you did the right thing. no point in beating around the bush. if he likes so good if not at least you would know you tried. you only live once and you never want to live with regrets besides he make like you but havent found the words to say cuz he is nervous

    No need to be embarrass about breaking the ice in other words

    maybe that just what needed to be done.

    I'll be looking for you to see what happens next.

    I imagine he is deciding on his next move. He may also want you to sweat a bit to make you anxious for him. The games that little boys and girls play!

  • i do not see anything wrong with what you did.

    when you like someone, be honest to them and tell them exactly how you feel, how they respond to that is not your problem. your business was to tell the truth and express your self

    sometimes along the way we gain some and lose some....

    Middle School Drama. Avoid him like he's avoiding you and he will talk to you out of curiousity.

    Hope this helps. :)
