MR. CRUSH

I BET YOU'VE HAD OR YOU'RE HAVING A CRUSH RIGHT NOW!!!

Mr. Crush is a burning desire to be with someone who you find very attractive and extremely special, its more like a childish thing but you can bet alot adult still find themselves in this condition.

Last night I was on a call with a old friend and I was there wondering if anybody anywhere just likes me, you know, if some lady or some guy stares and admires me when am not looking, I am sure there is or maybe I should say there are (leave me make i dey burst my own brain *winks*).

Mr. Crush is like a tree with branches... 

• The Friendly Crush Branch: It is important to remember that not all strong feelings are romantic. Letting yourself trust someone and become really close to someone, without necessarily having romantic feelings for him/her, is a really special thing. Wanting to be around a person all the time may just mean that you have gone from friends to best friends. Its totally normal to have a friend crush, you might want to hang out with your BFF as much as possible.
• The Admiration Crush Branch: When you idolize a person (like a celebrity, teacher, or classmate who has done something really cool) you may realize that you have really intense feelings about that person and what he/she has done. These feelings might be mistaken for romantic feelings simply because they are so intense. Feeling slightly awed in the presence of someone who has done something amazing or can teach you great things is natural. Often, its best to let a bit of time pass before really thinking too hard about these feelings. Generally once you have spent a lot of time with this person, you will have learned a lot from them and may begin to feel like you can stand on equal ground. You may find that your crush-like feelings simmer down once the initial awe of being in his/her presence wears off.
• The Passing Crush: It is human nature to be attracted to other people. Even if you are in a great relationship, you still might find that you feel attracted to someone other than your boyfriend/girlfriend. This attraction is what we call a passing crush-- this new person may seem new and exciting, and he/she probably is, but that doesn’t mean you should reconsider the relationship you are in or, if you’re single, drop everything to try to be with him/her. Often times, passing crushes are spiked by being attracted--most often physically--to someone.

• The Romantic Crush: Sometimes having a crush on someone really does mean you really, really like them and in a romantic way at that. Having a romantic crush means that you want to be with that person in more than just a friendly way, you want to be his/her boyfriend or girlfriend. If you fantasize about kissing, holding hands with, or cuddling with that person, you probably have a romantic crush.

Mr. Crush at times walks in line with love and infatuation as explained by some psychologist, they call this Crush-Love and this relationship may initially start as a crush, but can either develop into love or infatuation. When a person is in this stage, he/she usually fawn or adore the other person. They are vulnerable and can do anything to make the other person realize of their feelings. That reminds me, I once saw the Charlie Puth's "one call away" musical video.. he was crush-loving on this lady for a while though the lady seem not interested, not until he got his chance and finally got her attention.
Funny enough, you will never get over with a crush until you find a new one, you can be crushing on someone since when kids till when you're fully grown, you might have had one or two conversations with him/her before while growing up but so far your kind of conversation started no friendship, you tend to still stick to crushing on him/her.. someone once said “It's like I'm thirteen again and he's my crush. All I'm aware of in this entire roomful of people is him. Where he is, what he's doing, who he's talking to.” 

Okay, lets be serious..
Often, when you have a crush,

• you will feel excited when your crush gets brought up in conversation. If someone mentions your crush in passing do you feel excited? Suddenly get that feeling like a bunch of butterflies are flying around your stomach? Feel like your heart might leap out of your chest? Blush and giggle? Get tongue-tied and flustered? If any of these things happen, you have a crush on someone.
• Do you walk by his/her house or office a million times in the hopes of seeing your crush?
• Have you changed the path you take to work because you know he/she walks that way?
• You have taken a new and deep interest in a subject that you know your crush is interested in, like photography or rock climbing.
• If you listen to a romantic song and think, ‘Hey, that’s how I feel!’ you have a crush.
• If you watch a movie like Titanic and envision you and your special someone as Jack and Rose, you have a crush.
• If you read Romeo and Juliet and immediately identify with the hopelessly deep love of the main characters, you have a crush

Consider your thoughts while reading this. While reading this, has there been one specific person on your mind while reading this article? If you answer yes, it means you have a crush on that person.

But be careful who you talk to about having a crush. Don’t just go blabbing to any random friend about your crush. If you do that, someone might tell your crush and then you might get embarrassed. Only tell your best friends, the friends you can trust the most.

Now! now you confirm it.. you've been crushing on me. LOL
