I'm just wondering, do you ever find yourself crushing on people who are harder to get, and never crushing on those who are closer to you? When i mean "harder to get" i mean you crush on the one's that you don't know/talk to a lot, and you have to work your way and put more effort to become closer to them. this happens to me all the time, except i'm too shy to talk to them more to become closer =/

lol...
I'm sure it happens to alot of people nowadays.
All of my past crushes are total strangers to me, yet I somehow want to find a way to atleast talk to them.
Though you do have a point, why don't we crush on the people who's closer to us?
It's probably because we don't want to ruin the friendship we share with them? o:

that's one of the reasons.

for me..
physically impossible, close friend, another close friend , ..i-have-no-idea-how-i-could-even-imagine-being-with-her-, desperate...

Joel: [narration as Clementine acknowledges him by raising her coffee mug] Why do I fall in love with every woman I see who shows me the least bit of attention?

rofl. i 'spose we tend to want what we can't have. then again. that's quite human. greed. [perhaps not quite. maybe ambition?]

_ then there's that reason why crushing is crushing. it's just a crush.



. about shyness + crushes. it's best to just become familiar with them, and find common ground to talk about. if there's not, just throw yourself at them [not literally] and start talking.

but. i'd just pass it off as a crush. if it were me.
and just befriend them for kicks.

Good luck. ^^

[thymeless]

absolutely. i like the chase more than the actual "caught" part. but im trying to change? the chase can't last forever... /:

[Left_King]

I think 'we dont crush on ppl around us' because we know them...what i mean is, we know their personality...

While 'crushing on ppl we dont know', u dont know what kinda person they r...but u seem to associate good looking with really nice personality...or make urself believe they hv the perfect personality...

Basically giving false expectations...

[한스 ㅋㅋ]

it's human nature.
We value something that are hard to get.
In this case, if he is harder to get, that must means that something is good about that person.

[kevykevvv]

Haha I can totallyyyy agree ! If you think about where you are now, can you imagine yourself still crushing on that person? To me, it seems ridiculous now to be with that person. And what you said about not crushing on the person who is closest to you, you read my mind because now, I am happily together with my best friend, who I never imagiend being with until I cleared my head and brought myself back to reality.

[alligatortears]

we all want what we can't get..
it's like we're naturally made to like challenges.
something might spark your interest in that person,
and all of a sudden you have a crush or whatever.
who knows?
you might not even like that person once/if you get him/her.

[confused1.368]

totally sucks!!
why did God make the world like this?
make me most attracted to guys that are farthest away from me????
im an innocent shy girl that goes crosseyed for bad boys.....poo poo

[greyxsmilesz.]

thats like 90% of my situations lmao

[onewaylove]

yeah, its like... once the chase ends, it gets boring. and it might be boring to begin with if you all ready know everything about them & all? like, no suprises. also i think the friendship thing is why even though i've liked a close friend for a while now, i can't even imagine myself with him like a, i love you, everything about you, i love you for you, but please don't love me kind of thing... never mind. it's hard to explain. it's a weird feeling. Idk :/

interesting! i hope that's true. teehee

[Fui]

It seems as though we want things that we can't get. Things that we can easily get, aren't fun to appraoch.

HAHAH

However, that's just a phase. Sooner or later you'll get over it and figure out that's best for you.

[ms. rachellica]

it's always the challenge that appeals to us. nd once we overcome that challenge, it's not as fun anymore lol

[Lee Da Bin]

There was a guy I knew from far away for 2-3 years and who I had a crush on.. we became friends and we were always together during classes. Somehow I didnt feel anything towards him anymore and my friends say quite often that i'm playing hard to get and just want challenges.. and meh I just don't know XD

[Humilious]

No, not really. I've only crushed on people I've gotten to know really well.

[emceej]

hahaha yeah
like this one guy in my music class that i rarely talk to. but oh boy, i do find my ways to talk to him. lols.
happens all the time(;

[shooting_stars]

Oh, yeah, definitely. I'm currently crushing on a guy I used to work with, and I've never spoken one word to him. I just saw him earlier tonight after two long months.

I think we don't crush on people that we know because...we may not like something about that person? Or we're just too used to being friends with them? Huh.
