Probably the best thing I’ve learned in life is to disassociate actions from results. Stop wanting so much, especially things the world can’t possibly promise. Do things because they feel right to you, not because you expect something out of it. In this way you will never be disappointed.

In this particular scenario, are you confessing your feelings because you want them to know, or because you want them to like you back? If it’s the former, go for it and then move on with your life. If it’s the latter, prepare to be miserable over and over forever.

Dogs couldn’t see the old style CRT TVs. But they can see modern LED TVs.
