Do you like having crushes?

It depends a lot on the scenario. If the poor girl who bares the brunt of my affection is within my obsessive grasp, then I think having a crush is one of the best feelings I've experienced. It gives me hope :P If I have a crush on someone I will probably never have, either because she is unavailable or because the attraction isn't mutual, I find that very painful while it lasts.

I've had crushes while I'm not single before too, and they can be *very* awkward to handle. I have to try and distance myself from my crush to try and avoid jeopardising my relationship, but that is a very difficult thing to do.

HELL YA!!!!!!!!!!! But i always remember, sometimes, crushes ruin you too.
Sadly. :(

I think of crushes in a lustful way, hence there's no point in getting hung up on a girl like that. I make things happen, so I take a chance and meet that girl.

I have many crushes. I've been with some of them, and some are just fantasies.

No, because I don't want a crush, but I want a boyfriend!
Well, just a gay dude.

I remember reading or hearing someone once say: it's called a crush because that's how it feels when the other person doesn't feel the same way. That's very true I reckon - it can really hurt when you want someone you can't have.

You act like its a choice? Who told you that?

Its alright but I've come to realize that obsessing over one girl is a waste of energy that sets me up to be disappointed. I've been trying to play the field lately and if I go out with a girl a couple of times and I really like her then I'll try to move things forward. But, still, I try not to hold my breath over any girl. Infatuation is a powerful thing, I don't want to let it overtake me

I love having crushes for the first few days before the crushing realisation that she's just too good for me and instead I have to watch her get together with someone else. But there is always the future

Only if things are good between me and the guy I like. If I feel ignored or I think he likes someone else it's painful.

Yes.
