Life Span of a girl's crush


Plain Curious

Recommended Posts

I have crushes that sustain for a VERY LONG TIME (shortest is a year), no matter if he is in my life or not. My crushes only fade over time. Either that, or I was hit with some fact about him: that it would never work, that he isn't interested. I tend to lose attraction when I think a guy isn't interested in me.

It kinda depends on the situation and her attitude. If they guy doesen't change who he is (this is where her attutide towards pactience comes in) then it should last a good time. But if he dosen't talk to her or really ask her out then it might slowly start to decline. depending on her it will be fast or slow

 

But that may not be true, after all Im only a guy.

Hold up, retake. I didn't notice you PC were the OP. If your taking about that one girl It should last some time if you contune flirtin with her she may eventually break up with the bf and over to you. Or it might go sour and she stick to her BF and gradually lose interest romantically for some time. Time will tell

I honestly think it depends on the guy.

 

There's always that one guy that you want to at least get a glimpse at in the hall and you feel like crying if you don't, and then there's those guys you talk to for a day and he's really cool, so you think you like him, but it goes away the next day.

 

Or it could depend on the girl. Does she crave attention, or is she clingy? If so, she'll probably have long-term crushes. If she's more shy and down-to-earth, they probably won't last long.

 

Yeah, just hope this helped.

Yeah she craves attention. Always the conversation starter to be honest.

 

Thnx

I had crushes in my early twenties which lasted the duration of my twenties. I thought they'd remain forever, but I became a different person, and what seemed like amazing guys in retrospect were not so great.

 

Still, there will always be a part of me that is attracted to those I've liked before. I don't think it just up and dies.

 

These days I'm a kind of two and a half to three year span girl myself. That's how long it takes to get through the main effects of a crush.

Thnx but the reason u keep attracted to them is because u keep in contact with them ? or you just think about them all the time?

It's usually after 2 - 3 years that I stop thinking about them (I consider myself to be on the obsessive side). But even once they exit my mind for the most part, if I do think of them, I still have feelings. I think of it like little diamonds lodged inside me which represent each person who has taken my fancy. I recently looked at a photo of a boy I fancied as a teenager, haven't given him much thought in years, but when I saw the photo, I literally blushed! : )

It depends on the girl really and how attracted she is to him and I find it also depends on how much she thinks he might be interested.

I will have long term crushes on guys who I think are more likely to be interested in me than those who arn't. I used to like a guy but then I found out he wasn't interested in me and very quickly my attraction to him died-completely. I think its sort of an instinct to avoid being hurt too much. Unrequited love is not pleasant for anyone. But then there are times when a girl might meet a guy at a party and like the look of him but the next day she might wake up and decide he was cool but there are other guys out there. Its really subjective, that is the problem but most girls, well I think most girls who have a long term crush on someone only keep them because they have some hope that there is a possibility of something happening with the guy one day-however small the chance might be.

Hey, I was just wondering how long do girls usually like a guy? like will they get over them in a month, or will they always have the same feelings as long as the guy doesn't change who he is?

 

It varies with every woman and every crush. Its been a long time since I've had a 'crush' but there is this guy that I guess I've had a crush on for almost 10 yrs. Nothing serious, just always thought he was really hot. Since high school. He was drafted by a pro-baseball team right after high school and since has gone back to college in another state. When he comes home for the holidays to see family and I see him around town, I still get that butterfly feeling in my stomach. We're friends I guess, talk and have hung out a few times, he has NO idea though.
