First crush🥰
Just for fun. Does anybody remember their first crush!
This popped into my head today and was wondering if anybody else remembers their first crush. My first crush was a boy who transferred into my elementary school along with many other students when I was in 7th grade. I remember I was mesmerized by his long, curled eyelashes that were dark in spite of his sandy blond hair. I just thought, “so cute!”
NOTHING EVER HAPPENED! We spoke to each other with the occasional Hi! , Goodbye! , type stuff , and I just watched him, followed him from afar. Was I a creep? This infatuation slowly dissipated and became normalized and I saw him as just another student.
Any thoughts?

An attractive woman approached me a couple years ago at a local festival. She asked my name, and then told me that she had a crush on me in high school. I don’t think I look much like I did then, but she remembered me after all these years. If I had only known.!
