Crushes eventually go away

[Gigabitch]

I've just had a personal experience that makes my life easier and I want to share the Good News.

It's not about Jesus. It's about Kevin.

I had a crush on Kevin for four years. It was incredibly intense. It actually drove me to tears a couple of times, I wanted him so badly. I couldn't have him. I was married.

Chance meetings with him were life-altering events. The sight of him took my breath away. When I looked in his eyes, I felt like I was trapped in warm honey and forgot what I was going to say.

This started to fade about a year ago (about the time I was seriously contemplating ending my marriage).

I saw him yesterday. He and his new girlfriend stood right next to me during a concert I went to, and they were sooo cuddly, and you know what? It was nice to see him happy. No feelings of infatuation remaining.

So, take heart, obsessed ones. It doesn't last forever.

So did it gradually diminish, or was it sudden?

[Gigabitch]

So slowly I didn't even notice.

[vashti]

Interesting. I wonder if...

Lets sure hope so.

Definately glad to hear you got over this Kevin though.

The longest crush I ever had was probably for 2 years in junior high school.

I tried to run with it, but it just wasn't happenin'.

i don't even get crushes anymore. i figure yeah, i may be physically attracted to this person, but living with him would probably be hell.

Time mends many things. I'm glad it has mended this. It's often funny to look back on the many things we obsessed and crazed over at one point diminishes as new adventures in life dawns upon us, allowing us to forget or overcome the past.

It was the biggest crush of my life. I was so used to it, I just took it for granted.

Someone once told me that crushes are about seeing in someone else something you feel you've lost in yourself. Guess whatever it was, I got it back.

Ah, crushes. Oh the memories. You know, it was a crush that led me to this very forum. I still remember it like it was yesterday...

Did it ever go away? Are there lots of stop signs on Memory Lane?

Yes, it did. then another one shortly followed a few months later. They were both older, both smart, both teachers and both wore glasses. As you can see, I clearly have fantastic taste in women.
