4.1K opinions shared on Dating topic. My high school crush? No. She's a zillionaire and I literally grew up on the wrong side of the tracks.
However! I did get together with my elementary school crush.
I will never forget the first time that I saw her on the first day of 3rd Grade in September 1971...
She moved far away in December 1975...
However, we were 23 and I went to her home for Thanksgiving 1986. (She was estranged from her folks at that time.) She is STILL a beautiful blonde at 58. After the other guest left, I stayed for another day or two and we got to make out. Sadly, she said "I want what I can't have". She could have had me... Indeed, I was going to cheat, so I just dumped my previous girlfriend of 26 months because I thought this crush and I could become a couple. But, that didn't happen. We could have become a couple two other times, but the timing was wrong... The first time was in mid-1993 when she was at Disneyland for business and I was living in LA. We were 30. She was divorced, but when I visited her, I could see in her eyes how she was getting disappointed as I was relaying my devastating heartbreak from a different beautiful blonde who I also would see in 1993. Ironically, I never saw either of them after that year. Later, circa 2000, she called my parents home hoping to talk to me. My folks told me about it, but I couldn't do anything - I was living with my wife before we got married. Anyway, the blonde needed someone to talk to - her mom has just died, I later learned. I felt bad - I wasn't there for her. Had I not been with my wife... who knows. She was my greatest crush and, in some ways, I still crush on her.
But she's a zillionaire too now. She was very driven and successful in business. The money that they gave her to leave her firm was more than 3 years of my salary! She's not as rich as that other high school crush. Her tax penalty for not paying enough taxes one year is more than 6 years of my salary.
I sure knew how to pick them. I just didn't know how to win them.11 Reply

+1 yNo. He friendzoned me and tried to date a mutual friend of ours instead 🤦
If that's not the story of my life...
After that, I just kind of distanced myself from him so I could get over him and move on with my life.
In retrospect, I really am glad it didn't workout between us: he didn't have his life together, he had no direction, and wound up dropping out of college because he had no motivation to attend classes or study.
No idea whatever happened to him, or if he ever got his life together. I hope he did, but... yeah. Sometimes things don't work out for a reason.10 Reply

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yThe last one I messed up myself by self sabotaging due to PTSD. I believe I wasn't worthy and was disgusting even if she showed interest. Instead of telling her I liked her I asked her if she would be my enemy and other stupid stuff and also told her about the fact that I was bullied in the past and some stupid stuff like that I didn't have emotions and then bloked her. O was so afraid of getting close to her and getting rejected after that that I did those things to push her away. The tough thing is I remember I accidentally crossed paths with her and her friends weeks after I did it and I remember her saying something along the lines of "do you know about him, it's really sad". I walked away and when I was in the car they happened to pass again next to me I waved them goodbye but they were distracted. That was the last time I saw her. After that O felt so dirty that I deleted all my social media out of fear of doing something similar again one day with a woman. And also out of shame and wanting to hide.

+1 yI did not. She was the class valedictorian. She was both the hottest and smartest girl in my school. She was a very sweet girl and very confident. However, I was one of the guys who could not stay out of trouble and constantly made enemies. I was not very popular in school and I was aware of it. I thought about asking her out but did not want to ruin her reputation among my peers. After graduation she admitted she had a crush on me and wanted to know if I wanted to go out with her, but I had just been broken up with by my first love and was about to join the Navy. She is still a good friend of mine to this day. If she was not married I would probably go out with her now.

+1 yIn the 5 years and 2/3 schools
I hated the first one for the 18 or so months I attended there
The next 18 months were at the as yet unmixed academy for 6 months and unmixed classes at the mixed academy for the following year but I interacted with no one
The following 2 years were mixed and though business dealings I started to gain some popularity and caught a few crushes
One for a girl on the bus, one for a classmate and one for a teacher
I dated the first one for almost a year before she moved to Poland, didn't date the second one due to dating the first and leaving school for college in the timeframe and nothing happened with the teacher obviously
Real case of the good, the bad and the ugly there10 Reply Yes. Turned out she cheated on me in college. I really thought we were gonna be the couple who stayed together but she makes poor decisions while drunk and can never get a good judge on a guys personality.

u +1 yNope, I didn't have any crush in high-school
I had my girlfriend in high-school... but I would not call her a "crush" because it wasn't just an infatuation or someone unattainable, we were really into each other.00 Reply 4.5K opinions shared on Dating topic. My aunt married her's. A friend on college married his. A colleague in college lived in the dorms with his. I'm not sure how they allowed a guy and a girl to be roommates especially when it was obvious that they were dating.
10 ReplyAt best nobody should answer such questions. It is much better that a fling should be forgotten than to become a weapon of mass destruction of hearts in the future.

Well on one hand I was still pretty immature back then, it was too early for me to have a serious relationship at the age of 16, on the other hand she was a bit emotionally abusive, she was always fooling around with guys in parties she went too saying that she was "really drunk" and I liked her too much to let go of her for these things. Eventually we broke up and two weeks later she was with another guy. It really hurt at first but on the long run it made me more mature and I spent time on becoming a much better version of myself than I was before both mentally and physically.
