Why don't I have crushes anymore?

[TayTay39]

Every year since I was in kindergarten I have had a crush. There was always that one guy who when I looked at him or he talked to me I couldn't stop smiling and heart would beat really hard and my face would get all hot. (it was a different guy every year/grade - with the exception of 4th-5th) I loved that feeling, but ever since the end of 8th grade I haven't had a guy to think about. Actually it was right after I had the biggest crush ever and we liked each other and we always talked and then we went out for a month and then everything turned upside down, and he dumped me. I was in a big depression, but after a while I sorta got over it. But now I am not attracted to any guys. I mean maybe a little but not enough that they're always on my mind or something. And I'm afraid I won't ever feel that way anymore or something.

don't worry! wow I love this, you're exactly like me! okay me and my boyfriend had a really confusing relationship, we'd break up and then feel horrible, so we'd get back together. we went out for like 6 months, and he dumped me for the last time at the beginning of freshman year. I was upset for like 2 months at least, and I only ended up liking a new guy like 6 months later.

i felt pretty confused at that time, but I liked a guy a lot after a while, so you probably will too(: don't worry, it'll get better. I know what you mean about that feeling, but also be glad that you're a free spirit and don't have to worry about him not liking you, or liking someone else instead... but how long exactly has it been that you haven't liked anyone?

Don't worry you will, maybe you just matured after your relationship, it is part of life take what you have gone through as a life lesson. You will find a relationship based on not purely on looks and 'status' only sparkles for so long, what is much more rewarding is when you find someone that makes you happy when you know them personally, makes you smile even if they turned ugly (if that makes sense lol) and understands you and loves you just as much back.

There is much more to look forward to and a lot more people other out their with more personality than in your high school. (That is if you're in high school) So don't lose hope, and in the mean time you can always crush on older hot celebs to distract you!
