Be yourself, be courageous and tell the person. He/She will admire you for it for as long as you will be together.

You don't look silly or weak when you tell someone how you feel. Instead it shows them that you trust them and they will support you.

I think you should just be honest about how your feeling, as what your feelin no matter what it may be is important and if it's what your feeling then it isn't silly or weak. So therefore just be honest :)

Just by being honest. Sometimes we feel uncomfortable or awkward because we do not know the outcome of the situation. Never feel worried about the way you feel.

Expressing yourself, reaching out for help, and telling people how you feel is nothing to be embarrassed or feel silly or weak about. Reaching out for help, talking about how your feeling is a sign of strength. Only the truly strong and brave do whats right for them no matter what.

Try and open up to them, they won't think that you are silly or weak and will probably admire your courage to tell them! Just tell them slowly what's going on in your life and how you would like some support :)

If you ask others how they're feeling, and if they are able to tell you truthfully, you'll find that we all share the same feelings, good or bad. So whatever feelings you have, many other people also have them, and you're no sillier or weaker than anyone else.

Sometimes it is difficult to share our feelings with others, but the best thing to do is just get it out there in the open. If there is a relationship or friendship established with the person you are speaking with, it should be very easy to tell them your real feelings. If this person makes it difficult for you or makes you feel embarrassed for sharing how you feel, you should reconsider that person's space in your life!

Make you sure you trust the person you're talking to firstly. And make sure you are in a comfortable situation. If the person you are talking to makes you intentionally feel weak, then the chances are they are not the right person to talk to. If you feel weak or silly anyway with someone you want to speak to, be honest, tell them lightly that you feel that way. You'll find sharing feelings like this, or even being told things like this, will actually feel pretty good.

Honestly, I would just say it. No matter what it is, there's no point in avoiding what you're going to so.
