How do "unhappy crushes" affect you?

[Renmiri]

it's hard to be around them while the feelings are still there.

But I'd like to just avoid the person altogether. Ideally, that would be best. Sometimes I just can't resist though

It helps when the guy acts like a complete jerk with you

Hurts but gets you over him pretty fast

[kikimm]

Haha. Next time it happens then, I'll beg for the dude to be an ass. I'LL OWE YOU ONE ;D

[Renmiri]

Well, it's like ripping of a band aid instead of taking it out carefully. Hurts like hell but at least it's over quick.

Not that I had any choice in the matter at the time

I have a crush on someone that doesn't return it. It actually doesn't bother me that much, not anymore considering he is a complete jerk.

Although I don't normally avoid them. The very reasons I have a crush on him in the first place is the reason I want to be around him so I'm not gonna ignore him. Plus its hard to ignore him he is in a lot of my classes.:rolleyes2

But even though im getting over him I still know I have a crush on him. I blush and act weird when he talks to me and I repeat what I said to him in my head when he laughs and thinks I'm funny and I'll perpously sit close to him all the time in class to listen to his voice.... Its a good thing he's a jerk.

Aye, jerks make it easier on us in the end. Their only saving grace IMHO

I'm going through one right now. I love this guy soooo much. But, I can't have him for soooo many reasons. I know what you're feeling. But we will all move on someday, even if we think we won't. You will find love for someone else better over time.

Yeah, I know ive got a bad crush on him. But I'm not crushed by this crush I don't really mind. I don't feel bad about it at all but I can tell I still have a crush on him just by the way I act around him.

Hang in there! No one has died of heartache in the past 2 centuries except on the movies

This has happened to me 3 times. The first 2 times it happened, it was with very good female friends of mine, and although I had feelings for them I just ignored them and continued getting along with them as friends because I saw them on such a regular basis.

The third time was recently, infact it is still the case to an extent. My ex-girlfriend, she broke up with me almost 2 weeks ago now and I still have feelings for her. But she has moved on. However, I feel alot better now, although chances are I'd take her back right now if she asked me, regardless of what has happened in the last 2 weeks.
