Is it normal to have a crush for 3 months?

It's been three months since I've met this guy who I still have a crush on. When I have a crush, it's kind of obsessive. I become very infatuated with them. I still feel this way after so long and it's driving me crazy. I feel like it's a good idea to give up, but I just don't want to because it still seems like it has potential.

The way we have interacted has been peculiar and confusing. Not bad, just DRAWN OUTTTT and slow. He looks like the happiest little b*tch when he sees me and that keeps me hooked.

I haven't seen him for almost two weeks now because he travels for work and our schedules don't always collide. I feel like a loser for still being into him, after so little progress has been made.

Is it normal to have a crush this long?

Also, is it normal that I feel disappointed in myself for caring so much? I've tried to stop. Every time I avoid going out of my way to see him, I regret not having done it.

I'm not a teenage girl anymore and this feels kind of ridiculous.

    Mine usually last for one to two and a half years.

      Agreed. If I stop liking someone after a couple months, not only is that not normal for me, it's pretty much impossible.

    Yeah it's normal, I've honestly only liked a handful of guys and they all lasted for a while.

    I'm not so sure how normal it is but I'm in the same boat. I've had a crush on a girl that doesn't even like me as a friend for 2 months now. For some reason I just can't get over it. Like you, I tried to tell myself that I was better off moving on and trying again some other time, somewhere else. But I simply can't. I keep thinking about her all the time and there are so many things about her that drive me crazy.

    I don't really know what to say in regards to what you should do but everyone tells me to move on. I even tell myself to move on. So Maybe that is the best choice despite how freaking hard it is. It may take another while but it will happen eventually. I least I hope it does. I feel pretty stupid too haha.
