Default talk of crushes

My basic idea for this thread was a place to talk about our crushes, we've all got them.

Mine is the German exchange student whom I share three periods with. He is suuuper cute, friendly, and ohhh that accent is uber sexy.

The only problem is, I can't tell if he is gay or not... he acts gay, but what if it's a culture difference thing or a misperception on my part? I don't know, once I get to know him a bit better, I think I'll step right off that bridge and ask him out.

I agree... especially when they are on those who do not curve.

Especially when it's on a very attractive straight roommate who is quite comfortable with wandering around the suite half-naked even when his gay roommate is home. I swear he is just trying to tempt me...

I don't think crushes suck. I love that crazy feeling you get when they walk by. Of course it inevitably leads to me wandering off into a daydream about the two of us falling rapidly and rather shamelessly in love, which often ends abruptly with me making some rather odd comment about it out loud. This leaves me in the middle of an awkward explanation to the people around me. Okay maybe crushes do suck, but just a little.

I can see how they'd suck, but this feeling of senseless enthrallment is bliss. The only betterment I can envision is his arms about me. Perhaps I am mad, so be it.

I don't think they suck I think they are highly annoying especially when you get a straight crush but I enjoy the feeling you get when you see that person

There is a thread like this in the anonymous section of the forum. I'll link the post I made there recently. It talks more about a specific crush than crushes in general. My opinion on the topic of crushes has not formed yet, for I have never had one that was more than sexual in nature, although this one that I have now may fit that criteria.

Quote:

So anyways, I thought I'd post because I am crushing quite a bit now. There is a guy who goes to the same college as me, and it also a freshman. He is a math major--like me--as well as an all-around awesome guy. He also has really long hair and a bit of a scraggy beard, both of which are turn-ons for me. I met him in line for casino night at my school, and he was talking about math with another one of my friends. We got to know each other and I friended him on Facebook, where I saw that he had not listed his sexuality. I saw him in the cafeteria two days later, with two girls by his side, each stroking his lovely, lovely hair. I have only ever seen gay men receive that kind of attention from two females simultaneously. (Just as an aside, one of them ended up leaving him and stroking my hair. )

I sat down with him and talked with him and his friends. After dinner, he told us he was heading back to his room in such a way that he seemed to be extending an invitation our way. I decided to go along with him, and we talked math for a long time. We also talked about our home towns, monster movies, music, tea, and Dwarf Fortress. He never made any moves on me, but he did bring out some cling wrap at some point. When I asked him why, he mumbled jokingly, "I'm clinging to you," or something along those lines. We did slowly move closer to each other as the night progressed, but never beyond normal heterosexual boundaries. Although I enjoyed hanging out with him, he never did anything to hint that he liked me liked me.

If it weren't for the singular exuberance he seems to feel for our friendship, I would have tried to move on by now, but something inside me doesn't want to give up. The thing that worries me the most is that I'm the only math major he knows (our university graduates only forty math majors a year, so thats 160 in school of 12,500, which is about 1.25% of students), so he could very well be trying to initiate a bromance with me, which would explain his enthusiasm. Don't get me wrong, he's an awesome guy, but to be stuck in the friend zone with him would be horrible. God, I need to start wearing my rainbow bracelet more frequently so that I can be wearing it the next time I see him. (Unless he has checked my Facebook profile, he has no way of knowing I'm gay.)

There are two things about most of my crushes:
1. They're all gorgeous.
2. They're all straight.

God if he would just have a conversation with me! I love looking at his face and seeing those gorgious blue eyes.

When I wake up I can still see him laying next to me, smiling at me...oh God he has a great smile.

I have to go eat something comforting now.
