How to Be a Secret Admirer

If you want to anonymously express your interest in someone, you can be a secret admirer without being a stalker.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Greeting Cards
• Flowers
• Boxes Of Chocolates
• Gift Certificates

1. Use the delivery services of a florist or gift shop to present the person with flowers, gifts or messages - instead of lurking around the person's home or workplace, waiting for an appropriate moment to leave the item without being noticed.

2. Send anonymous messages through a secret admirer e-mail service, such as SecretAdmirer.com or Lovingyou.com.

3. Make sure your messages and gifts are sweet, funny or light-hearted. Don't send messages that have threatening tones or gifts that imply questionable motives.

4. Send messages and gifts that create curiosity and interest rather than apprehension or fear.

5. Avoid lurking around the person's home or workplace.

6. Refrain from following the person around town or home from work to avoid any misunderstandings about your intentions.

Tips & Warnings

• Drop a few clues - such as using your own handwriting to sign a card - so the person can eventually figure out your identity.
• Avoid trailing after the person to eliminate any possibilities of creating fear or apprehension.

on 9/12/2008 i liked this boy that i work with and i wrote him a cute note, rubbed it with my perfume, and stuck it in his car door. after i found out from one of his friends that he was wondering where it came from, i cut out words from a magazine, taped them to a piece of paper, and stuck it to his car again. cant wait to find out what happens =]

on 9/17/2007 Another way to send cards and letters to your secret crush is to use a remailing service like texasremail.com. You send them your letter and they will mail it to your crush. They will even address it for you! The postmark will throw them off the trail.

on 2/14/2007 Depending on what Florist you go to, buying flowers can get kinda pricey. You should have an idea of how much you are going to spend on the flowers and if they are going to be delivered from the shop. It might cost you around (or at least) $50 to get a good bouquet and have it delivered, so keep that in mind. Try to stay cool when in the flower shop because more than likely the person in there is not going to encounter many "Secret Admirers" on a day to day basis (e.g. they'll be asking what kind of bouquet you would like for what price, etc.). Be cool by thinking of the "action" of getting flowers instead of the "person" you are getting them for - that will get you flustered. Extra brownie points if you know what flowers he or she would like or what kind of special bouquet to make for them (just be careful about asking the person right before you buy flowers for them). Say something nice, sweet, or funny on the card that goes with the flowers (i.e. "For a Special Someone"), and not overt like "I want you so bad baby" (I combined this part from other posts). I hope you like my "words of wisdom." I just bought flowers for someone and it was a little harder than expected, so I thought I'd share.
