Meme: Crush Meme Resurrection

[radiantbaby]

So, I was chatting with justben tonight about crushes and I was saying how I really loved that meme from ages and ages ago where you fill out your LJ crush(es) and if they have chosen you as a crush as well, it will inform you that you have a "mutual crush." In some ways I think it's such a nice way to alleviate those fears of rejection by limiting your crush's knowledge of you to someone who is also crushing on you. Plus, it's also a nice ice breaker with the mutual crushes.

Anyway, I decided to find the old meme to see if it still works and was happy to see that it did. I updated my crush list because I thought it might be fun. You guys should try it out too. You never know what might come of it.

Oh, and for those of you who decide to add everyone on their friends list in order to determine who has a crush on them (a common occurance when the meme floated around before), I hope that you would not do so. I mean, it's no fun to see someone on your crush list who is only there to see that you have a crush on them. Of course you can do what you will, but I think that sticking to a list of your real crushes is much more fun.

So, on with the meme:

Number of crushes on me so far: 1

LJ username:

I am curious to see if anyone has a crush on me. It was fun to fill out all of mine. I had to laugh over all of the people on my own list that I am attracted to (there is quite a list!). I guess I am just a crushy sort of person...

I think I play my cards too close to the chest to let myself participate in this meme (and several others like it).

Ah well...

How's that saying go? Once burned, forever shy?

Ah! So, that's why I can never tell if you really like me or not!

I would feel really bad if no one had a crush on me. It does sound fun though. :)

I am quite sure that there are people with crushes on you -- you are a hottie, silly!
