Just be straight-forward and say, "Hey, I like you" and see what they say. It's better than beating around the bush and trying to drop unsuccessful hints and getting nowhere. If they reject you, yeah, it'll hurt for a bit, but you'll get over it.

You could be up-front and tell them.  Or, you could ask them out.  And if all else fails, play this.

Women like a man with confidence, telling them over IM definitely doesn't scream "I'm confident".

Cos IM is for geeks and stalkers. Go to him/her, and just ask them if they would like to mee up sometime. If you're up front and confident you should hopefully get a firm YES or No in kind.

I agree with some of the posters above. Don't tell them on IM. Don't go straight up either, get to know them, and yes drop hints, and tell them YOU like them, it's less awkward and sounds less arrogant.

Edit: Kiss them first, lean in and wait;) lol his thread is full of fail

"I like you." :|KHfanboy2
No, that's completely ridiculous. :P What you should do is: Scream "Look out! A bear!" , tackle them and try to convince them that you saved their life.

First of all don't do it on IM, do it in person. Second of all, I wouldn't flat out tell someone you like them, it might freak them out a bit, seems akward. I would go up to the person and just talk to them, introduce yourself, if you have a class with them talk about that, just make conversation. Eventually if things seem to be going well, you can ask that person to lunch or coffee, something casual. Idk that's how i would do it but you do w/e.

A face-to-face conversation (IRL, non-webcam) is the best way.

Never on IM or TXTing them. Women like confidence, so simply walk up, and say you really like her and see what she says. If you're polite about it, she will either say yes, or politely decline, and it's gonna hurt for a while (speaking from experience) but you get over it eventually and on to the next one ;)
