I need to drink to tell him how I feel. I know he feels the same but is scared and no self esteem.
You say you're a woman who is beautiful and has a Master's Degree, yet you are chasing a basement dweller who clearly cannot commit to a relationship with you and that you need to get hammere on free booze to tell him how you feel. I don't get it. Something just doesn't add up.

He has the qualities that are important to IDDY: he doesn't have kids and isn't divorced so he can marry in the church. Apparently, he's the only one in Mayberry who meets that criteria.
Why would you want a man with no self-esteem, and what kind of relationship could you possibly have if the only time you can communicate your feelings is with the use of alcohol? Raj, is that you?
Because he is a good guy who shares my beliefs and is inexperienced in dating. He doesn't have a lot of baggage.
[quote=Idon'tdateyou;27700181]The 6 year old probably heard him tell her father since they are friends (and yes both are member of the American Legion). I doubt he told the girl but her father. Otherwise why else would she mention it since I have never mentioned my crush on him at all to my students. Why go to the American Legion? because I am involved with various programs there since my brother is serving in the army (and I was briefly in the navy).[/quote]
I served in our US Navy. Why were you only briefly in the Navy, if i might ask?

In my very (okay, not so) humble opinion, all of this is not worth the calories in a light beer. So, you get drunk, tell him how you feel, then what? Do you really think he's going to see that as a good thing? That you'll get together, fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after? What happens if you have a disagreement? Will you have to drink to talk to him? Or will you walk on eggs because of his poor self-esteem?
IDDY, you've been mooning over this guy for six months. Move on. Seriously. You're wasting your time. He's not even worth the effort. You're in your 40s. Please, get a hold of yourself.

I have bad ankles and arthritis was discovered after a bad sprain and suffered at that time from severe migraine headaches so was discharged medically. I always regretted that I was discharged but at least it wasn't for bad reasons.

No, I am just uncomfortable telling him how I feel because I am shy as he is.
Everyone has baggage but this is better than someone who doesn't share my morals.
He's not the only man in the world who would share your morals. He doesn't really sound like someone who has anything positive to offer a relationship, let alone have the capability to get into and actually be in a relationship. Why are you pursuing this guy specifically? Do you just like a challenge?
