I Like You

I've always wondered why people can't just come out and say I like you. why is it so hard? fear of rejection is suppose. but who cares? i mean if you get rejected, yeah it sucks but isn't it worth a try? cause you never know what may happen. another interesting thing is: why is the guy always supposed to ask? I think females should as well, otherwise ladies never get the chance to show their feelings. I usually end up telling someone when i like them, but the few times i haven't I sure regret. so now i'm going to challenge all of you and myself to break the social norms and get brave :)
