Crush 102 : Getting Crushed

By | 23:07 Leave a Comment

I was going to title this post ‘Crushed By My Crush’ but that sounded so clichéd (and so apt all at the same time)

As some of you might know, a little while ago I confessed my crush to the Roadside Romeo who I met back in December.  Last week I was grinning from ear to ear about the fact that the crush was coming to Bombay after spending the last few months out of town.

He arrived today. And confessed that he had started semi-dating someone and he wanted me to know about it.  He’d love to meet but he didn’t think he could be ‘as much fun as he’d hoped’.

He let me down quite easy when I think about it.  He was honest, upfront and at least made me feel like he kinda felt bad all at the same time.  I’m a big girl – I can crushedlive with that. 

But, yeah – seriously – the Diva just got crushed by her crush.

The thing is – the girl he’s started dating – she’s very cool, lots of fun AND I know who she is.  It’s not like I ‘know’ her and she’s a my bum-chum; more like I know her through parties and we get along when we meet.  The logical side of me says that means there is no way I can even consider making a move on the crush.  ‘Cos that would just be wrong (right ?)

The hormonal side of me is screaming out to just do as I please with the crush !!! Would that be so wrong ? (and no need to answer that – I know it is wrong).  I promised my girl DA that I wouldn’t let my hormones get the better of me.  After all, it’s just a crush.

See I told ya that I was a big girl.

Ouch!! Major bummer... but then, maybe its better that you found out as soon as you did, instead of you getting more into him, and even more crushed in the bargain.

Strange isnt it... no matter how old we become, how mature we think we are.. when it comes to matters of the heart, it hurts just as much as when we were teenagers.. we're just better equipped to deal with it now.. but the emotions are pretty much the same! Eitherways dont sweat it... you'l find the Right Romeo soon ehough.. after all, you're a rock star!! :)

Bummer is the right word !!

Crushes are just that though aren't they. It's a feeling that isn't quite real but since it's a nice feeling - we let ourselves enjoy it.

Now, will the Right Romeo please step out :)

Boo:-( Know how that feels. Chocolate helps, as does buying new nail polish:-) Just go out loads then you will meet someone new and forget about the other one:-)

You got crushed by a decent guy, even so it will smart for some time. But isn't it better, him telling you rather than bumping into them at a party and being shocked. I feel for you and agree that chocolates are a big help in any crisis, shopping helps too. Hugs...

I came across this post (written last year) and I'm in practically the same situation right now by another decent guy ! What's with the decent guys having sucky timing ? It's like it's bang on !

Oh well - guess my shopping will be the saving grace ;)
