I would try to not complain about ducking a bullet.
I have never had occasion to become infatuated with someone that I knew so little about that the fact that they have a boyfriend would catch me off-guard.
I feel that it's kind of weird that you didn't know her relationship status.
Aside from the inanity of a "crush", if there's no ring, it's no thing.
"welp, that's another one"
or something along those lines
Yea, crushes are usually part of adolescence. As an adult, I think they’re useless. It’s like bottled up infatuation that just gets weird, because one puts this person on a pedestal without really even knowing them. Basically projecting their romantic fantasies on them. It’s just bad. You find a girl/guy attractive, then go talk to them, you may find out you don’t like them after they speak lol.
I may not be an overachiever, but my Druid is richer than half of Venezuela.
I come to a forum and make a thread about it and ask others how I should react.
