There was someone who I liked but she didn’t liked me back and she knew that I liked her. Somehow I gotta let go of this old crush and moved on

I don't know either. Lol. But it's normal for everyone to have a crush tho. You know, just liking them from a distance, nothing toxic. Having a healthy crush is fine with me.

because it is very easy to get infatuated with someone... that in many cases, you don't really know, and then... to dream is free, costs nothing much

Hence why they're called a "crush." Your feelings usually wind up crushed because the feeling is not mutual or they disappoint you- at least that's my perspective on crushes. I've yet to have a crush that turned into something more than that... and why I try not to develop them, as I always wind up disappointed.

I stopped having crushes after the second one. Why bother liking someone you're never going to get with?

Because people want someone who is above their league, especially women.

Because most people see them as a challenge to conquered
