GUYS!!! Why does doing this push you away?

There is nothing wrong with this... except... men (younger men, especially), have the tendency to have commitment issues. Sometimes this is for good reason. There's are fine lines between a flirty, interested woman, and a needy, desparate woman. (And since I don't know you personally, I will certainly not judge).

What I am trying to say is, everyone deserves to receive love - but sometimes not everyone is on the same pace of "giving" or "showing it". Men, especially, tend to worry about over-committing to a situation they are not sure of. This is pure survival instinct; we do it with our jobs, our homes, we do it in battle, etc. Some men are too distant (and I don't understand these sort either).

I was raised to say that when I found a Mademoiselle attractive that I should let her know, and if I really thought she was a daisy, than I shouldn't hide that from her at all.

Absolutely nothing! I would love that too!

I'd kill for that! Sounds like you're a great person/girlfriend/wife, whatever you are

I love it personally, unless your doing it excessively or as ty-lady said, he just doesn't like you the same way.

By making strong emotional statements, you put the other person in a position of either 1) an obligation to return the sentiment, or 2) trying to tap dance around what you said and change the topic.

This is very stressful for someone who doesn't feel the same. It's also stressful for someone who does feel the same deep down inside, but has difficulty verbalizing those feelings.

Nothing, unless the guy doesn't feel the same way or maybe just not yet!
