+1 yAs an old couple told me one time I said how are you all stay together for so long what is your secret they said and I quote being in love isn't what counts. You can love somebody and not like them, they said you want a long-lasting relationship you better like that mother f***** if y'all don't like each other so you're going to be miserably in love or miserable because you love somebody you don't like that's no good for anybody but if you like the person you're with and you love every minute of being with them

Haha going on 20 years? I always had a thing for her, but she never really liked me back. Which that's whatever I was a dork in high school anyway. Haha doesn't mean I don't think she's cute, but its not as extreme as it was in high school.

+1 yAbout 6-8 months? I was really falling for him too!
Until he made it very clear he wanted to be friends when I told him I liked him? Yeah he friendzoned me 🤦♀️
I've yet to have a crush that developed into more... I think that's why they're called "crushes." They crush your heart, lol30 Reply
+1 yI had a crush for 3 years or so... and I don't believe it's love if it's long.
I know people who had a long crush on "the one that got away" and once they got together they realized it was just infatuation.10 Reply

+1 yI had a crush on Heather from the age of 17 and until about 30 granted I never acted on it it was more of a crush from a distance I just loved her eyes. The feeling was not mutual so I never pursued her I just admired her from afar. I didn't dwell on it too much because I was busy with other women but every now and then I would think of her
10 Reply2 years and nothing became of it. He found I was into him junior year and I found out he wanted to talk to me but was too shy.
Senior year he was liking someone else who wasn’t into him and then on top of that he didn’t want a girlfriend anyways. So I‘ve been over it, done, and moved on. On the bright side when he found out I wanted to go to prom with him, he actually considered it but he ended up not going period.10 Reply
+1 yOne and a half years 😂 and I was and am still wondering whatever I saw in him... He's short and stout lol I can't help but laugh when I think I was in love with this guy for so long.
And the second crush was on a very handsome guy and later on I came to know that he had a crush on me too that was the best feeling everand we started dating but unfortunately we only lasted for 2 months10 Reply- 389 opinions shared on Flirting topic.
+1 yA crush starts, very simply, as lust. Pure lust. IF you get a chance to know the person, and you interact with them for more than 4 months, it doesn't mean you "love them". There are a whole lot of possible scenarios at that point, but "love" is the most unlikely.
10 Reply My first one really was our french teacher. Sex on legs it should never have happened getting a teacher like in front of a bunch of 12year old boys. We had he for french for 2years, she had the sexyist french accent, nearly wet my pants every lesson. Still got a photo of her some where...
10 Reply3 years and counting, i met her online we had some fights then we were friends again, we still light flirt from time to time, but I don't know why i still think about her we aren't even that good at communicating i'm just attracted to her personality somehow and can't forget her.

+1 yI do not believe in the existince of love outside of long duration relationships. You simply do not know each other good enough beforehand for love to really develop. My longest crush lasted somewhat over a year I think
10 ReplyI crush on a person until they either reject me or I move on to someone cuter &/or cooler. My last crush lasted about 6 weeks. It ended because I got the hint that he wasn't interested, & our winter class ended, so I literally moved on
10 ReplyLove, no... infatuated with, yes. To crush on someone is different than knowing someone. And I feel there are several stages to get to being in love for someone, and knowing them is one of those. And remember that being in love and having love for someone is two separate things

+1 y4-5years, time never affect love, it can be love if you still have crush on that person after 4 months and also if you don't have crush anymore. Then also you can love someone.

@ZeussLightningBolt When we left primary school and were in highschool, my classmates in highschool knew him. He was a popular guy.
He was dating a girl who was cheating on him according to them. They were very gossipy girls. One day they were talking about him and they said "Why is he dating her? She isn't pretty or kind. Yk who he should've been with?" And they all turned and stared at me. I turned red.🙃
They shipped us for like 2 years. - +1 y

"Crush" seems like a kid's thing. Maybe taking some time, getting to know her, and discovering some interesting, wonderful things, and then asking her out, for a great time, and a wonderful conversation? Then dating?
00 ReplyI don't know like 4 months? But at the time she went to a different school and she ghosted me quite a bit when we were chatting on FB.
So... Eventually I got over her.10 ReplyI think around 6 years. If only I knew then what I know now.

Im sorry to hear it. I hope that whatever part of your heart that holds on to those feelings for him finally realizes that you deserve to find someone who would hold on to the same feelings for you.
