    Hi!

    I have the feeling i dont get normal crushes like everyone else. I feel like they are wayyy more intense and slightly worrying. I sometimes have fallen head over heals over strangers at uni and work (which obviously have proven to be straight).

    This is something that worries me because i have never had the feeling reciprocated: i have never been with a woman, and the guys i have been with has just been one night kissing basically. I feel that i might be wierd or mentally ill for some reason.

    Sometimes whilst i talk to my crushes i think "i dont know why i like this person so much its stupid" but then again i cant keep them out of my mind and its very exhausting!

    Any suggestions?

    I can relate to this. I get intense crushes too and get emotionally involved before anything physically happens, which usually gets in the way of anything good developing. :frowning2:

    I think this intensity could be caused by suppression of our true feelings, especially if the person is of the same gender.
