I'm curious. How old were you when you had your first (real human) IRL crush? Why did you like them? What were they like? What happened and when did you stop liking them?

She was a bitch. I was blinded by love or lust, I suspect the second. Our breakup was public and loud.

In elementary school around grade 1, her mom was a friend of my dads. IDK why I had the crush, I can barely remember talking to them. However if patterns are accurate, it is probably because we were friends and sat next to each other. Nothing really happened between us and the crush dropped in 4th or 5th grade.

Don’t remember if I actually had a crush on them, or if it was my family saying I do… :blob_hmm:

I was a little boy in Grade 1. I "fell in love" with this girl after she decided to lend me her pencil after I lost mine. She was so kind!

She was a tall girl. Couldn't tell if her fashion was tomboy or not but she was the best in my English class. I like girl who are better than me.

I had a lot of 'boy asks to go out with me and I say yes because why not' when I was young, but my first real crush was on a girl. I confessed it to a friend, but it was a time where we didn't have as much information about LGBT+ people, so they thought I was sick or possessed, and told other people to stay away from me. The girl I had a crush on said I was disgusting, and everybody was staying away like I was the plague.

I'm around 9 or 10 years old. My memories' been fuzzy; all I can remember is I was Grade 7 then.
Why did you like them?
She's a classmate and friend. She 'grew' into me. If I may be specific, I liked her intelligence, and her kindness.
What were they like?
A half-Flip, half-Chinese girl. She's quiet in class, but quirky with her close friends and loved ones.
What happened and when did you stop liking them?
We were on for 12 years. I proposed marriage to her when we were 24. She refused, and our relationship 'cooled' since she asked for 'space'.

A year later, she was married to someone else.

Also, I did not stop liking/loving her; I just moved on from the experience. First crush and first love. ?

Well, it was sweet and orangy in flavor. As I grew older, I found that the sweet taste was too much, and we parted ways.

That was my first crush experience.

I don't remember why I liked her, I was 14 and still a muslim at the time so i just buried everything within me, the very next year I left the religion,but that just made me lose myself for a bit, smoking, drinking and all that.
my deluded mind thought that leaving her alone would be for the better, and if i didn't I'd be selfish. the next thing I knew I had moved on.
I don’t know where she is now but I really hope she found happiness in her life

My childhood best friend. We met again after years apart and I remembered being very uptight and shy. Sadly, he wasn't into guys.

I never stopped liking any of my crushes. First was kindergarten, but he stopped talking to me from all the teasing. We didn't share any classes after kindergarten, plus a new school opened, and I was sent to the new school, so we didn't see each other again until 6th grade, and then I moved a few months into 6th grade. From studying human development, it's totally normal for boys and girls to avoid each other through middle childhood, so I don't hold anything against him.

The one person I never want to see again doesn't count as a crush because I met him on Craigslist.

It was messy, painful, and a lot of tears.

First male crush that I remembered was a guy who shared a lot of similar likes (same music, same subjects in school, same types of video games, etc) and was a relatively nice guy. Turned out he was gay (also when I first discovered I had a fairly decent gaydar). Never confessed and we became friends but drifted apart after High School.

First female crush was Lucy Lawless as Xena because I like women who could conceivably bench press me (also when I realized I was a peice of spaghetti). Never crushed on any girl I actually knew though. All my GFs after that started at the "huh, you might be kind of interesting" stage without the same kind of feeling you'd think of as a "crush".

I've had one crush in my whole life back in middle school. Her name was Claire and the crush initially started out of a competitive spirit. She was the only one better than me at math at the time and when we played math games around the world it would be back and forth between the two of us. We would also cheat on tests together and the such. Then it was summer and that was it. The end. Never had a "Crush" on someone again.
