Love Matters Naija

How do you declare your love for someone you have a crush on?

A lot of times, we find ourselves in situations where we have a crush on someone and we are unsure the best way to let them know.

On the first episode of LM Naija Vox, Young Nigerians in Lagos let us know what they will do if they find themselves in that situation.

Can you relate? Let us know in the comment section. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more exciting content.

'LM Naija Vox!' is aimed at having young people answer some of the questions that other young people ask our Love Matters moderators on social media and our website.

Did you learn something new?

Am having this problem an it affecting me am having a crush on a girl named Jennifer buh I don't no hw to explain it to her we do chart,call each other buh I can't approach her on that matter

Reaching out to people that you are attracted to can be difficult because of the fear of being rejected. However, they are no different than how would approach a friend, family or other person. The initial hello and coming up with small talk is the same idea except the person is front of you is attractive.

The best way to do this when you are nervous is to talk to people who share interest. Do they go to school with you? Are they working? Did you meet them at the movies? This way there is already a commonality between you an it gives you the first conversation topic. Find other people who like what you like and try to mingle from there.

Otherwise, just be honest. Tell them who you are, why you approached the (they said something smart, they like the same team, you find them beautiful etc) and then build the conversation from there. Tell them about yourself, and ask questions about them. You are attracted to them and ideally as you learn more about them you will become interested in them.

Everyone has nerves and the girls know that.
