Every celebrity crush I’ve had has went nowhere.

She never did anything for me. I dunno why. I am more into the “imperfectly beautiful” look myself - like Hillary Swank and Cheryl Crow. To me, “perfectly beautiful” is smoking hawt!

There was a girl at school I was friends with who I had a crush on for a few years. We did a liiiittle bit of flirting with passing notes and she was very kind but never took an interest in me romantically. I wrote her lots of poems which she was very nice about and I was in love, but it went nowhere. She ended up dating some other guy in our year group and I thought “what does he have that I don’t?” but the heart wants what the heart wants. I don’t regret it. It was a happy non love affair I think.

I actually ended up dating a girl in the year above me and she was awesome while it lasted but she left home and our relationship didn’t survive the distance.

In the end I eventually married someone from work but it took us a while to get together because we both thought the other one was out of our league. We got together on the way back from an Ed Sheeran concert!

That’s correct - the heart does want what it wants. And I’ve often been puzzled by the same.

Sometimes the heart wants a person who doesn’t put it on a pedastal and asks if the heart wants to grab a coffee after class because the heart seems cool.

I had a crush on a girl during the last few months of my last semester in undergrad (we were both going to grad school in different states). Beautiful and smart, we talked a lot during class discussions, we texted each other once in a while. This girl had me daydreaming while driving and cheesing hard while singing to pop songs with the windows rolled down. So I decide to ask her out. We meet up at a coffee shop, turns out the coffee shop is closed but we walk over to an ice-cream shop and talk and flirt for hours. We hug goodbye and I’m beaming on my way back home. We continue texting back and forth for a few days and I decide to ask her out once again. I ask if Saturday works for her and she replies that she’s going to be celebrating her third anniversary with her boyfriend on Saturday but maybe Sunday would work. I had no idea she had a boyfriend, so needless to say, that went nowhere. Or rather, we both went our separate ways and I’m still considering reaching out once I’m done with grad school.

I’ve had more crushes that went nowhere faster than my investment portfolio. 😆

I am physically in pain after reading that. May your upvotes climb faster than either!

At this point if I cannot see the humor in life, I’d be suffering from even worse depression than I do already. But thank you for your kindness!
