The Pompitous of Love
Ok. Any insights into the male mind are welcome in response to this post.
I met a guy a few weeks ago. I heard it was his birthday, so I made him a card, got his address from a friend, and sent it to him. This he knows.
I was inspired to make the card during a bout of insomnia brought on by my inability to stop thinking about him. The room I was working in looked like Normandy on D-Day by the time I was through, with ribbon shrapnel and glitter bomb fragments. I called and left a message for my friend to give me his address, but when she didn't call back right away, I resorted to online stalking, trying every variation of his--and his roommate's--name I could think of, to no avail. When my friend finally did call back with his address, it was T minus 1 day until his birthday, so I drove straight to the post office in the dark and in the rain because at least there it would get picked up at 4:30am, the earliest I could hope for. About any of this he can only speculate.
Here is my question to you: do you think he knows I have a crush on him? And if so, how do you think he will react?
I'd say 80/20 he knows you like him, as they say here, it's "res ipsa" - the thing speaks for itself.
Your question "if so, how do you think he will react" seems to contradict the common belief that girls ALWAYS know whether the guy likes them or not. If what you were saying was that you do know but are just wondering how he'll react, I assume he'll react well.
But I don't know him well enough to be able to tell if he is treating me special or if he acts that friendly toward everyone... And girls do not ALWAYS know. But even if we do, it's nice to have some confirmation now and then.

(I really need to be more careful about who reads this thing. Or maybe who writes in it. I could get myself in trouble. ;P)
