to express your feelings to someone you really like?

I told a guy I've been smitten with for 15 months how i really felt about him in an email(didn't go over the top, it was light hearted and humourous). The reason why i decided to finally tell him this (we've had an attraction/connection from when we first met at work Nov 2007) is because i was moving offices and knew i wouldnt see him again. We've never got it together (he's still recovering from a broken heart as the girl messed around with his head) but have always had that connection with one another - genuine attraction and chemistry. When i told him how i felt about him (and the last 15 months), he said he was really flattered and he 'dreams about someone saying & feeling those things' about him. He asked for my number - which i did, and we both agreed that even now is not the right time for anything serious, we'd keep in touch and maybe one day might be the right time (I came out of a 6yr r'ship 12 months ago). Good enough, after i emailed him my number and i had left the building/office for the last time - he text me thanking me for being so open and honest in how i felt about him and that i shouldnt be embarrassed. It's like we're both lost souls and feel connected with one another....but appears to be the wrong time for both of us...

When it was my last day in work and i emailed him what i did, we went for a chat outside the office and on the way back up to our floor - he gave me a hug in the lift and it was really heartfelt - it truly blew me away.

I'm just wondering whether it's good for women to express their feelings to other men? I did what i did because i didnt want to look back at my life and regret not saying something to him before i left ....
