Ok, over the weekend I realized something.

I'm totally developing a crush on a guy at church.

I haven't had a crush on someone in ages (I'm talking 8 years or so!). This has to be a good sign! Not as in - maybe he's "the one" ... I don't know enough about him yet. But a sign that maybe there is hope for me yet.

Nothing may ever come of it - he may not be interested in the least, my impending move in 2010 may prevent anything from ever coming of it even if we do become friends ... but man - I take this as a sign that I am healing! I'm getting better! My heart will not always be afraid!

Thank you Raphe, you are good to me. Thank You for healing my hurts and using this situation to teach me that I can feel that girlish emotion again.

Cool! Now make sure he knows you're interested. You don't need to do anything drastic just smile, say hi and ask how he is. If he's clueless (like me) you might have to do that a few times.

You never know if it'll work out unless you try.

BTW nice to see you here again losgan.

oh, that is sooo exciting. I like having crushes. Haven't had one in a while.

Anyhoo, practice batting your eyelashes, and saying, well, hellloooo there, big boy, what big muscles you have, lol!

Or, you can just say hello and start having a conversation about his day, or his guitar, or about any particular topic of interest to him and see how he responds...

Of course, I'm more inclined to do the first suggestion (just to to let him know his under your radar. I do a pretty good Mae West impersonation, so that works for me, lol)

Thanks trainfan :) I have smiled at him a few times, and I think I caught him looking at me once or twice, maybe?

Prairie - I'm picturing myself even starting that sentence, and here is how it goes ...

Bright red as my hair and laughing, I walk up, say "Why helloooo" - burst into uncontrolled laughter and run away before I can say the rest.

I think it is more likely that I'll be able to say "Hey, did I see you driving a ________ ... what do you think of it? I hear good things."

I won't even talk about my racing - because it'll either intimidate him, or he'll already know (he works at the church, and apparently word has gotten around about my racing already). And next time he's on guitar - I'll make sure to compliment him on his playing (he truly is good - not just being a flirt).

Agapetos - I'd hate to last until my coffin with my little heart all closed up. I'm just gonna be a lot more careful about who gets too close to it. So far so good ... I've gotten very close to some of the women in my Bible study. They've been instrumental in this stage of my healing.

And of course Jesus! I know Jesus will never hurt my heart, and He'll always be there if someone else does.

How about if you accidentally back your car onto his car/truck/van, or whatever he drives. That sure would get you two talking, and you can exchange some really personal information that way, like your address, and phone number, etc.

Just kidding. I wish I had a crush. It's always fun when you're crushing on someone.

We'd probably have to forgo one of the game threads for it though...

Well, no, because if we're dealing with REAL crushes or how to deal with real crushes - it's not a game.....it's real life.

denial is NOT a good thing.......

Too much denial and it'll start sounding like John and his not flirting.

***cough, cough, cough*** Don't even go there!

Speaking of crushes - I think I need to find another one........

Okay guys - is it cool for girls to crush on you, and do you want to know about it?

Girls, same questions, but regarding guys.

oooooo, good question, Lisa. I'm looking forward to hearing the responses.

As far as I'm concerned, if it's a guy I'm interested in, then of course I want to know if he's crushing on me.
