What's the point of telling an old crush that you used to have a crush on them? (Page 3)

[Phoenix98]

I’d only bring it up if it was relevant like she brought the subject up in conversation or something.

[Drumlin2001]

If you're single and want to see if there's any chance maybe. If you're in a relationship then little benefit

[Angelo75]

I think it's a way of letting u know that they find u attractive.
Usually u always stay weak for a crush.

[dustybiker]

It’s fun to see their reaction? Finally unburden? I never kept it a secret myself.

[DarkCarousel]

Yes, I think generally they are digging to see if maybe you like/liked them.

[SkyCastle90]

Even though you've grown from the person you were months ago or you're a completely different person from how you were years ago; they still have hope, because they haven't let the idea of you go.

[Justneedtokno]

I never understood it either are you going to make a move. And then to be some that are married now it doesn’t help me none

[Fromdusktilldawn]

Its kinda something you say to relieve yourself or when you are out already a few drinks in or with the hope to still get her

[Jamie05rhs]

A girl confessed that to me once. She texted me drunk. I thought it was sweet.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

The point is you just want to know how it would turn out if you actually told her. Keep it inside forever then you will never know. Also to get rid of that guilty feeling for not telling your crush

[Aiko_E_Lara]

It would be funny if those girls who don't understand it (the poll says most girls don't) are also the same girl who dis at guys who don't understand valentines day and why they have to make the first move.

[IveGotNoName]

There is no point. I could see it being like a reminiscent thing to say.

[red324]

I did this once and the girl was like I wish you would have told me sooner, I'm seeing someone now. It was all a lie on her end.

[Smartgirl_hey]

Maybe it's true

[AydenHazor]

I've had several people do this after they've moved on into serious relationships with someone else. I don't fully understand it

[Iron_Man]

Maybe they’re still single and want another crack at it

[AdithyaR]

I don't get it either.

I don't even tell my current crushes, much less an old one.

[Andres77]

If you're both free and might have a second chance?

[jshm2]

Why the hell not? How else do you expect them to know? You hoping they'll come across your Facebook posts?

[Anastacia1989]

Maybe they still like the person and want them and wanna see if they have a chance...

[Mangospacho]

Yeah that’s a bad idea, especially if my kids are standing within earshot. Then it’s really weird.

[Snakeyes7]

You were probably curious to see if they felt the same way.
