You are walking peacefully down the road one day, minding no one else's business but yours when you are hit by a ghasting force of beguine by none other than that sleazy looking grocers boy you see every day. Yup, you are crushed, spun around in that hypnotic web of infatuation with no means to get out. You're trapped. But as we know time is the healer of all wounds so there is nothing for you to do but wait in your heart-thumping cage. Isn't this situation a bit similar with people particularly teenagers? After the long-fated crush ends, you wonder how could you ever get a crush on that thing? *I must have been out of my mind!* But, for some not-so-fortunate ones, this flame of fire does not extinguish and they are fated to pine over their beloved.
Where is this word derived from? In literal terms, when we say we have "fallen for somebody", it means we have fallen so hard and "crushed" ourselves OVER them. In our daily lives, we usually get crushed at least once a day. Let it be that suave and good looking news caster or that cute actor or even some long-distance cousin or that stupid class-mate. For some non-committal ones, this torch lights not so often. But when it does then BAM! Watch out for the explosion!
Sometimes it happens that a crush does not go away. It remains there like a stubborn piece of left over cake. Sometimes you laugh secretly to yourself over your stupidity and complete agility over some nincompoop. And sometimes you sit singing in the private corners of your heart, thinking you have finally fallen into love. But, why am I going on and on like this over some hormone-based malpractice? Its not really a serious topic and neither is discussing about it going to do something for the world. So why do we discuss it? Possibly owing to the course of adrenaline that rushes through our body at the image of our crush? Or the fact that your friends are going to tease you now by the letter of his first name? (or her, boys too have crushes you know -_-).
It's all the bloody hormones that make you go crazy at times!
So whenever you feel crushed, take a deep breath and remind your self, there are people dying of hunger and being killed. Your issue isn't quite serious. Or is it?
