What would you do if...? (Details inside)

Go for gold.
You will always wonder.
Timing might not be right.
It might not work but you will know and you will know why.

Move on.

If they “might be” into someone else, I would go for it, You might be wrong and if you don’t try you’ll never find out. If they are definitely in a relationship with someone else, forget it and move on.

This isn’t a silly question at all.
Go for it. What do you have to lose really? This person may not be into somebody else at all. You’ll never know unless you give it a try.

Love at first sight. Puh!

It depends. If “might be into someone else” means he’s dating someone else, I’d say move on. Know that sometimes admitting feelings for a friend that doesn’t return those feelings can make the relationship awkward or even end it. If you’re willing to take the risk and the other person is single, go for it.

@Katniss What do I have to lose? My honor lol.

@tups Nah, you’re not going to lose your honor. lol
Life is all about taking risks. I just don’t want you to miss out on something that could be great. :0)

The times I’ve felt that connection with someone – whether it happened at first sight or didn’t occur until after we’d interacted a few times – I always pursued it. Not all of these were romantic interests, either. I did get disappointed by some, and have had my heart broken a couple times as a result, but I have absolutely never once regretted my decision to push my normally shy self into taking the initiative to get to know those people I felt that instinctive connection with.

If he is into someone else, why are you wasting your time?

Could you expand on what you mean “someone really important” ?
If that means romantically important then there is the obvious issue of his existing relationships.
If you include other possible types of relationship, e.g. close friends, then go for it.
It’s always great when you can get to know someone before losing your mind with love.

The key factor here is “might be”. You can’t make a clear decision on speculation. The only way to find out is to go for it and get the word from the person.

They may be interested in you, or not. They may be interested in someone else, or not, but they might have a dozen reasons to learn more about you, or a dozen reasons they are not attracted to you. The only way to find out is to find out from them!

Believe me, it took me a long time to learn this. Learn from what I passed up, go for it. I have found out over the years of a dozen girls who wished I’d have pursued them.

Life is about taking risks and learning from your mistakes. You could wonder what if for the rest of your life or you could tell this person how you feel. I’d say go for it.

If you’re prepared to have cold water dashed on your fantasies, test the water. If you’re just enjoying your fantasy, realize that it is just that and go ahead and enjoy. Time will give you your answer.

The worst thing that anyone can say is, “No.” Unless the person’s married, I’d take the plunge. If you’re a man, ask her out. If you’re a woman, ask him if he’d like to go on a date with you (I’ve found that, at least for the first time together, men prefer to make the plans, and pay, rather than sit back and let the lady take charge.)

Good luck! Remember – No guts, no glory!

I had that happen to me, allowed things to move forward and put my suspicions aside. I found an awesome partner that way.
