Best Answer

Harry has low-self confidence from the years of bullying and abuse he suffered at the hands of the Dursley's. He is also used to being picked last for everything.

When waiting to be sorted, Harry worries that the hat will be unable to decide where he belongs and that Professor McGonagall will say it's been a mistake and send him home, back to the Dursley's and a miserable life.

While being sorted, he is worried the hat will put him into Slytherin and asks not to be. The hat tells him he would do well there, but Harry maintains that he doesn't want to be put into Slytherin.

Dumbledore knew harry had to tell him something because dumbledore knew what it was but if Harry would tell Dumbledore.
