Has anybody ever had a crush on you?

yes- actually there is a guy that has had a crush on me since the 7th grade and he still does. Kinda pathetic but flattering.

Stephanie, 25

I'm pretty clueless about this sort of thing. I'm sure it is likely that someone at some point in my life has had a crush on me. If so, I certainly was not aware of it.

Felicia, 34

Yes. I taught for two years in a girl's boarding school. The word was "pash" (as in passion for).

Jill, 59

Yes. Not that I care.

Not recently.

When I was in college, a thirteen year old boy spent the best part of one summer following me around my parents' marina, where I was working, with a camera, even when he couldn't afford film for it. It played havoc with my attempts at a summer romance with a contemporary.

And just last week, I had a communication from a man I'd dated in the 1960s, saying he and his wife had split up and he wanted to fly cross-country to visit. because we had a lot to talk about. I think that might be evidence of a crush.

How would I know if they did? I can't say for sure.

Yes as a young girl age 15 on for as long as I lived in the area there was a friend of mine from church who's brother had a crush on me for many years.  He had a hair lip and my family to this day teases me about Hair Lip Kenny. I was even married and had children but he still had a crush on me.

I felt bad about his family they were very poor. Worse than I was a a child.

Yes, it has happened a couple times now. The first time was hard because the guy is one of my best friends. And the current one who has a crush is horrible because he is a stalker type guy. He follows me around and stuff. It is creepy. Blah.

Yes, my husband says he does. I know he once did but I don't believe that he still does.

Once in college; that's all I know about.

I've dated some, but im not sure you could say anyone's had a "crush" on me (if they have i sure havent picked up on it). I'm not very attractive and not the type to inspire fantasies, or whatnot. Oh well.

Uh, as far as I know, two people, in my life, have had crushes on me, although I was too dense to act on either one. Eh, whatever...I guess I couldn't understand why anybody would be into me, so that's why I didn't pursue either crush. Of course, if I had a time machine and could change my actions in regard to this issue, odds are I would.

Mick, 30

Yeah

Savannah

Yup.

Tracy, 24

Yeah (am i allowed to say that without sounding all up myself?). The most memorable person who ever had a crush on me is this guy called Anthony. I kissed him at a party when i was 15, except he was a reallybad kisser so i ran away. He was really drunk that night so he didn't remember who i was. Anyway, 3 months later (i was now 16) my friend had a birthday party, and he was there. He started following me the whole night trying to introduce himself and asking who i was (i did not tell him we'd already kissed before!) and then i told him to please go away and he got all upset and he started to kinda stalk me and kept askimg my friends why i didn't want to be with him. And he kept on singing

Hope so. Otherwise, my life sucks. Psst. my birthday's tomorrow :)

Amy, 23

Yes indeed. And I didn't like it.

Has anybody ever had a crush on me? Yeah, a couple of guys, one was the preachers son, another guy was a kid I used to go to middle school with. Come to think of it, in high school, there was a guy that sat next to me in lunch and bugged the hell out of me, until I got pissed off and threatened to inflict bodily harm upon him. And there was another guy, that I worked with last year, he was a spoiled, conceited s.o.b. I was friends with him, because he was funny, and it was fun to have someone flirt with me every single day. But, he invited me over to his house one day, and apparently, he thought I was coming over to have sex, and so I threatened bodily harm upon him, too. And left. And after that the only words I ever spoke to him were mean and fowl. So, that's it. That I can remember.

Lisa J., 22

Yes. Many, many times. Not to sound conceited or anything!

Susan, 32

This is a tough one. Sometimes it's kinda hard to tell. I would imagine at some point in my lifetime, someone, somewhere may have had a crush on me.  Sheesh, at least I hope so!!

Fisch, 45
Preston

I think someone did. He kept staring at me and I'm not that interesting, so there must have been some reason. He still does it sometimes. I don't really like him though.

Shanna, 15

Yes

Melodi, 19

Yes, I've had my share of crush-ers, and stalkers too, even though it's never been anyone I've *wanted* to have a crush on me.

Karen2, 15

Not meaning to sound self-centered, but yeah, lots of people have had a crush on me.

Dianne, 16

Yeah, but I think they eventually wore off, because the people that did have a crush on me never told me.

Jeremy, 13

Oh yeah. . .It's kinda flattering, but it also sorta sucks, unless I return the same romantic notions. . .
