If you want but don't have to, answer the following questions:

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside?

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

1. Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside? Yes. The first time I meet my ex-boyfriend Michael at camp when I was 13 and my heart melted from the first moment I was introduced to him and I had all these feeling inside that I had never felt before.

2. Say if you wanted to date someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind--- that it would never happen, or even coem true it is literally impossible. How does it make you feel? When I first told Michael that I liked him was when I was 13. I asked him out and he turned me down and it hurt me so much. Here was this very attractive guy that I wanted so bad and I couldn't have him and that made me feel horrible. So for 5 year whole years I denied all of those feelings that I felt toward him. Then this summer we were brought together by fate and from the moment we started talking to eachother all of those feelings that I had denied for so long had came back and I could not deny my feelings any longer. I needed to tell him how I feel. But of course I didn't. A few weeks later we were brought together again by fate and those feelings came back again. Now this time I had to tell him how I feel. I did and we went out for six months and then we broke up. I would love to get another chance to go out with him. If I did go back out with him I would never let him go again. I truly believe there is no one else out there for me except for him.

3. How can you tell your madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think? Well with my ex I was madly in love with him( I still am) I couldn't stop thinking about him and everytime I was at school or at my house I wanted to be with him. I wanted to be with him 24/7/365

Yeah unfortunetly I"ve had alot of crushes that made me feel differently MOST of the time it was all about how HOT they were and How i'd LOVE to Rip thier clothes off and make mad passionate love to them Whereas with Love its different then that FOR ME anyways (I'll explain in depth more later)
Have I ever had a crush on someone I knew it was a situation GOD YES to many times to count BUT My state of mind is IF its Gods will it will happen so Nothings really ALL THAT impossible?
Have I ever been IN LOVE Yes what does it feel like? The feeling of wanting be with the guy all the time, smiling whenever I hear his name, loving the sound of his voice ,LOVING HIS PERSONALITY MORE so then his Looks (yes looks ARE important but they ARENT EVERYTHING) and would rather be cuddling with them and hugging them and kissing them rather then HAVING sex with them (although that would be an added bonus) Pretty much being the persons Bestfriend with Benefits

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside? yeah

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think? When I'm around that person, I breathe deeper and I can't help but stare at her

I didn't answer #2 cuz i don't know how to, cuz it was a kinda freaky question.

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside?

*who hasnt? but considering i almost always have a small crush on someone, even if its just because theyre fun to flirt w/ or im around them a lot and gives me something to do (ok this sounds really bad... ;) ) so its kind of a normal feeling for me. i dont take crushes all that seriously.

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

*like getting angry, being miserable for a few days, and then finding someone better and doing everything in my power to make them insanely jealous.

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

*considering i dont think ive yet been "in love" for real, ill answer as to when i know its more than just a crush: when i dont understand it. A crush its like "omg hes so hot.." but in this case its "i dont know why i love him, i just do.." Also when its not a convenient relationship at all but that doesnt bother me, or i get really upset when someone makes fun of it.

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside?

Yes. A couple times. Okay, 3.

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

Like *****.

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

Obsession of the mind- which simply means you think about them way too much. You're always happier around them. You get that squishy feeling inside whenever they're around.

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside? Totally

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel? sad

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think? Obsessing over the person 24/7. I'm in "love" with this guy I know and whenever my friend mentions his name, I totally perk up. I go "where is he?!? I wonder what he's doing?" Whenever I'm around him, my mood totally changes. I'm going to go think about him now...lol.

How does that make you feel? Nothing is completly impossible as long as this person is alive, but yes it hurts when you THINK there is no chance. It hurts alot.

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?Constantly thinking about this person, writing letters and not sending them, constantly writing their name, wanting to be with them every moment, think every bit of them is perfect and are flawless.

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside?

Yes, and we all know who that is. ;)

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

Eh, it sucks knowing you 'literally' can't have what you want, but I feel that even though I'll never have the person I want to be with the most I'm still madly in love with them. I don't like the fact that I can't be with that person, but at least I can still be happy about them and that fills me with enough love to spread across the entire universe. Literally. ;)

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

Well, for me everytime I see that person I become so overwhemled with sudden happiness, heart beating really fast, loss of breath (b/c the person is just so damn breath-taking), giddiness lol like I'm a school girl, hehe. Oh and you can tell when I'm happy because I usually smile..most of the time I don't smile, unless I'm kicking a$$ on those game show network games, hehe. :p

Let me also add that, that person happens to be my inspiration and I wouldn't trade that burst of sunshine and creativity from that person for all the money in the world.

Yes.

I hate it. Makes you feel hopeless. Its very pessimistic- you begin to say that for every crush you have.

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?
Mm.. you can just tell.

1) Have you ever had a crush on someone that practically changed the way you felt inside?Kinda. It made me realize things. I don't know..it's extremely hard to explain

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel? Rejected. It's happened before, and I've been told straight to my face. .

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think? I've never been "madly in love" with someone per se, but I have had a heavy crush on someone. I still do. Okay well I have since Kindergarten... I just think about him a lot. Not 24/7, but you know, he's always somewhere in my thoughts

Yeah.
I've had crushes on other females my entire life but I always considered myself "straight". Untill I met Carmen.
I was a few days away from my 16th birthday when I first saw her. I was standing by the school gate before the first bell rang, waiting for my mate Natalie to arrive. Then this beautiful girl appeared, seemingly from nowhere. I'd never laid eyes on her before. She was with a friend of her's and they were both laughing about something as they walked by me - and her laughter was one of the most perfect sounds I have ever heard.
That was my first glimpse of Carmen Murray and I have, literally, never been the same since. Since meeting and falling in love with Carmen I have never even remotely felt attracted to a guy. How's that for "changing the way you feel inside"?!!!

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

How do you think it makes me feel?
Unfortunetly, being gay and living in a small town, it is a feeling I encounter much too often.
I always fall for straight chicks - I dunno why I'm so goddam unlucky!!

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

"Symptoms" - you make it sound like a disease!! :lol:
I guess, in a way, being in love is like being sick - at least, it is for me. I never fall for girls who reciprocate my feelings so I always end up feeling lonely and depressed when I get a crush on someone.
For me, I know I'm in love when I feel - more than anything else - an overwhelming sense of respect for a girl.
I must admit, I can be quite insensitive. If I see a good-looking woman I'll think to myself "hell yeah, I wouldn't mind some of that!!" or, if I'm with a friend, I'll nudge them and say something like "check her out - what a f*cking fox!! :grineyes: " , which I will admit is a pretty dumba$$ way to behave.
But if I seriously like a girl (cos, to be honest, I've only really been in love once) then I won't think or say those things about her cos I have too much respect for her to objectify her in such a way.
Also, I'm a very lethargic and lazy person. A lot of the time I just can't be bothered with other people or even just life in general. If a meet a girl who I really, really like and just the thought of her is enough to make me care and actually want to get out of bed in the morning then I know there's something special about her.

Yes. Many, many times.

2) Say if wanted so badly to date that someone you had a crush on, but knew in the back of your mind - - - that it would never happen, or even come true because it is literally impossible in reality. How does that make you feel?

Absolutely, completely terrible. I look at him, and I look at his girlfriend or whoever he likes, and I'm like, "WHY? What's wrong with me?"

3) How can you tell if you're madly "in love" with someone? What are the symptoms you think?

Can't stop thinking about them, stare at them throughout class, bring their name up in various conversations, name every male character in your stories after them (I do that, anyway...lol)

Again there are circumstances galore, so go SLOW no matter what.

I've had tons of crushes, started at 13 and went on for a lifetime...I now can say I never really loved my husband, now ex, he was my ticket out of a unhappy home. Didn't see that then but maybe didn't want to see it.

My couple truly caring kinda "in love" times I was in my later 40's....neither one led to marriage again, as I did not want another marriage.

So look at WHY one feels the way they do about another person in the love world.

Dude, it was not that terrible but MANY people in my generation got married young and many left homes that had alcoholism. My home life was good all in all but tolerating an alcoholic father was not good. Poor man, didn't ever seek help. Alcoholism was rampant during and after the Great Depression, hard times, so the men drank, 10cents a draft beer.

I've had crushes before my teens. There was one girl I had a thing for in elementary school, I won't mention her name or which grade she was in. But she was in the standard latency period, which never happened to me. She always said no, but like a lot of guys I hoped she'd change her mind. Now the school I was at gave out phone numbers to all the parents of the kids. So one day I decided to call her number, and I got her mother instead, I asked to take her out and she still refused. She and her mother got in a heated argument in the background, and I realized my efforts to woo her were useless. I was in the process of telling her mother it was okay if she didn't want anything to do with me, and suddenly I heard the bitch smack this girl across the face! From that point on I've had nothing but pity for her, and cursed out her mother and slammed the phone in her ear!


I've had other crushes on girls and women, which were a far less tumultuous since then Not too much success from those though.

Thinking back to those crushes, they told us we were alive....but our religion for us girls told us we were not...but it was good the way it all went in my life. Religion had it's place for many years in all this.
