actually my first crush dies

but I first real crush was this asian guy named Jason I didn't know it was a crush since I was like 7 or 8 but we hung out all the time and when I never saw him again I was so sad weeps it legit was only like a 2 week thing. but we used to play pokemon together and his other friend had a crush on me but I was crushing on Jason and it was like just three of us. come to think of all my early crushes as a kid were asian boys. I havent changed at all clearly. I just not lucky dating my type as a adult weeps

for four or five years i had a crush on this guy i went to school with. me back then was shier than me now so i didn't really do anything about it. all i did was look.

I always thought he was straight (he has a gf now i think) but when we were together, there were many times where he touched me or pushed himself onto me. if i hadn't had a crush on him, i would have felt weird but no, i liked it.

from what I remember it was the older brother of one of my friend, I was like 10 and he was probably like 15-16 and I was playing with my friend mostly to go see his brother

My first real crush never intended to meet up with me (I understand it now, I was 13, and the age difference was significant rip), but we stayed in contact via communicators. He was a navy too!

I once spotted him in town with his crew, I could visibly see him shaking inside and in his eyes 'don't come'. Now I would for fun and lols, but back then I was really understanding of people.

He's old now, hitting 40 soon I believe, is thin as a stick and has a receding hairline from the last time I stalked his profiles chick3 but I hold no grudges against him, and wish him all the best!

I had a first in real life crush and I told one of my best friends… she told him and honestly my life was ruined at the time. I had almost no support from peers and ended up being home schooled for a while and that's not even me being dramatic

I was 18 and he was 24. We were both in our junior year of college working in the same program. (I finished my associate's degree concurrently while in high school.) He was muscular, jocular and polite. I was shy, timid, chubby, and non-White in my predominantly White town.

I figure there was no way a man of his stature and status would ever talk to me. (Tf, am I a YA author, lol.) Anyways, I realized that we had the same 5 classes. I figure the only way he would ever want to engage me was if I was smart and helpful. I aced all my exams, engaged in all the discussions, and even became a tutor. My plan worked! He started talking to me, sitting next to me, asking to do our homework together, etc. I thought it was awesome.

I would score the highest on the exams. I talked loud while helping others so he couldn't help but notice. He eventually asked me for help one day, and another day. Before you knew it, he would start sitting next to me in class. We'd do our homework together afterwards. It was like he just wanted to be in presence at times as he would just be next to me. I walked everywhere, and he eventually started taking me to and from classes, home, and sometimes work.

I never wanted to make him uncomfortable with my attraction. Being from a small Mormon town, I was insecure about another male finding out I liked him. (My childhood best friend became my stereotypical bully after people started suggesting I was the G in lgbt.) Anyways, I would push him away when I felt like we were getting too close. I would get insecure when people would catch us walking/talking together. He would ask if I was going to extra events, to which I would say no. He'd then catch me at the events and question why I said I wasn't going but here I was... i think he perceived me as being competitive or something off putting to him. It was like he sensed my distance and said, okay, if you want distance, here's your distance.

One night after a few months, he really wanted to take me home. It was 11:30 PM and I really said no, i can walk the mile home... I remember the disappointment in his face. The way he just nodded and said okay. It was like he was confirming the suspicions in his head about me. What suspicions? Idk. I can only think maybe he took my distance as not wanting to be his friend. Or, maybe he took my distance as me being competitive and I was gatekeeping success for myself. All I know is that it was my insecurity that ruined a potential friendship.

Today, he's married to a woman with 3 kids. I, myself, transitioned from the G to the T in lgbt. I lost all that weight, too. I became the swan that my ugly duckling self always wanted to be. Though, I am single still, lol.

First crush who was also my bully / biggest hater rip were friends now tho. I love a character development clap3
