It's a vague question, because it comes from the place of my very own reality.
I have this irrational fear of breaking the news to someone for whom I like. That person might even be a friend that I could have known for a long time.
I never expressed my feelings truthfully, and it almost always led them to ditching me, and to finding someone else.
I don't want to repeat this blunder ever again. How do I find my balls?

Well first of all the fact that you conceptualize telling someone that you're romantically interested in them as "breaking the news" like it's a terminal diagnosis is pretty telling of how you see yourself. You should work on that first.

That aside, just do it right away. The longer you sit around and fantasize about life together or whatever, the more imaginary stakes you put on the decision. Just get your answer ASAP instead of giving yourself the chance to build up an expectation.

Also try cultivating a better platonic support network to meet your social needs and more avenues to feel loved so you don't feel like a romantic relationship is something you need, then it won't feel like such a big deal.
