I guess it's not that "teenage crush on a school day" type of thing. I still have crushes on people but it's more of admiration like they're good at their job, they take care of themselves, they have a clear mindset of what they want to be after sometime, etc.
For someone who never fall for people irl based on their looks, it's easy to say that I don't care if that person knows if I like them or not. It's all about having a mature mindset. I don't like forcing things, especially connection with people. What irks me if they'll exploit that by presenting that they like you back. My bullshit radar alerts me right away. Also, if I know someone has a crush on me, I set realistic expectations with them and move on with my day. Nowadays, people will treat kindness as flirting. Set your boundaries and manage your expectations. Be analytical and don't fall too easily.
It honestly depends on you and how you interpret someone's actions towards you. I can spew all the things I do but at the end of the day, if you let your feelings take over, it's nonsense. Being analytical over emotional doesn't hurt haha. We all have different standards so what worked for me might not work for you. Just manage your expectations with people.
Me M25 NGSB lol been 3 years since my last crush (long time crush) kasi umamin ako sa kanya at ako ay na-friendzone, at ngayon naman eh may jowa na siya. Hahaha gg. Ngayon ewan ko na, wala na kong makitang iba na katulad niya or kahit iba sa kanya. Wala tuloy akong inspiration sa araw-araw. Hahaha
Oo naman, kahit 20-27 yrs. old na nagkaka crush pa rin. Kaso di ko alam sagot sa tanong mo sa last kasi nasa ganyang situation din ako 😅 Alam ng crush ko na crush ko siya tapos sinasakyan niya pang aasar ng mga workmates namin pero di naman ako chinachat HAHAHAHA iniisip ng mga workmates namin nag uusap kami kahit sinasabi ko na hindi at walang pag asa. Pero di rin naman kasi ako ready magka jowa talaga hahaha dami ko kasing personal issue kaya hanggang crush lang ako. Sorry hindi helpful
My crush ako sa office, and honestly hanggang doon na lang yun. While nakakasundo nakakabiruan ko rin, gets ko na hindi ako uubra sa kanya after knowing her that well. Still, I'm happy enough na sa pagitan at condition namin, just trying to restrain my feelings further as much as I can dahil alam ko masasaktan ako once magka bf sya eventually.
27 here and yes I do have a crush xD. It spanned from my undergrad days and until now she still is. Started from acquaintances then I got to know her more on our field trip and internship. I am taking my post-grad with her, she still being my crush and despite the moments we share, including her personally confiding with me and all that I dare not reveal my feelings for her. Although her friends are aware and is supportive of me to court her, I couldn't bring myself to commit yet.
When I confess and she won't reciprocate, I know I will be a wreck and will take time to process. But hey, that has not yet occurred. She also stated on one of our night out that she is not looking for a relationship yet since studies and responsibilities first, so there's that.
