Crushes: Healthy or Horrible?

Okay.. So we ALL have or have a had crush before. Someone that we know that we could never have. (Whether it be that they're straight and you're gay(or vice versa), they're in a relationship with someone else, or they're just out of your league.) We think about them 24/7, smile whenever they're around, and get all warm inside when they so much as speak to us. Well.. I'm here to talk about how I feel about this.

It's complete and utter CRAP! It's the most horrible thing ever, if you ask me! If you're like me, when you have a crush, you don't think about ANYONE other than person. You can have a million other people asking you out, but you completely ignore them. I do it, but I admit that it is the craziest thing ever.. You have people out there that probably care about you a great deal, but you'll never know because you're stuck on someone who probably doesn't even notice you half of the time.

"But.. They'll like me one day!" . . I'm not trying to be a downer or crush anyone's dreams, but no.. They probably won't. Given that there are some cases that you end up with your crush (Lucky! 😞) most of us will never end up with our crush.

So why is that we focus so hardly on them? (I guess the heart wants what it can't have.)

“An unarticulated crush is very different from an unrequited one, because at least with an unrequited crush you know what the hell you're doing, even if the other person isn't doing it back. An unarticulated crush is harder to grapple with, because it's a crush that you haven't even admitted to yourself. The romantic forces are all there -- you want to see him, you always notice him, you treat every word from him as if it weighs more than anyone else's. But you don't know why. You don't know that you're doing it. You'd follow him to the end of the earth without ever admitting that your feet were moving.” ― David Levithan

Personally, I think that if you have a crush, and you've had a crush on this person for a long time and neither of you are making a move, you need to move on. Sitting there fantasizing about what could have just makes you really sad that you don't have what you're fantasizing about. (Make sense?)
Go out there and find someone that's going to love and care about you as much as they do! Trust me, they're out there! Because mine was! But you won't find that person unless you let the fantasy go and look for it. You probably won't even have to look hard. He or she will be RIGHT THERE! ❤💙

This is merely my opinion and in no way should be the only factor you use in living your life. (That's your choice.) if you want to keep crushing, you go right ahead! 😁

(If any of you do happen to take my advise and move on, I would love to know how it goes. 👍😊)

Hakuna Matata! ✌

  1. Very nice. It is an obsessive compulsive thing...Feelings are hard to change, but like you say, you can do something about it. Get out there and find someone worthy of your love. Well said.

  2. I think they're time consuming but it's not necessarily bad, it's just part of growing up.

    1. Not a very fun part of growing up, though. It's a good life lesson, I suppose
