Write about your first crush.

Well, my first crush was like all classical one-sided crushes. These crushes stigmatize you for many years regarding how you fall in love and approach relationships. They mark your soul, making you more introverted and suffering in silence until you grow through this sweet, flickering pain and move on.

That’s how I felt about my first crush; the boy was one grade above me, and I had a crush on him as long as we went to the same school. Then our ways parted, as he finished school first, and as there’s a saying, out of sight and out of mind. Furthermore, I entered my last school year and had to focus on my exams, and the crush faded away with time.
