How does a crush feel?
Tbh I'm 99% sure I'm aromantic And if you don't know what that means. It basically means I feel little to no romantic attraction to anybody At all But I can still feel sexual. Sexual attraction, unlike Ace people But anyways back to the main point i really don't understand how you can just look at someone and have a crush on them and be like. Oh I want to spend my life with this person or oh I want them to be my boyfriend or girlfriend. It just doesn't make sense? Also You guys lose interest so fast like you were literally just saying you wanted to marry this person
Sometimes, crush doesn't equate to you wanting to be that person's gf/bf. That's what happens to me most of the time.
Crush for me is when I admire someone's looks, their vibe, their skills. When I see a guy who's good at guitar, or someone who looks good wearing a glasses, or someone with a good speaking voice, it's an immediate crush for me.

As an aroace I often get sad and lonely over the things I'll probably never experience, like crushes boyfriends girlfriends
But I try to think more positive like I'll never go through a heartbreak or I'll never get STDs and stuff like that reply
dunno its kinda weird for me its like i get abnormally happy when the person talks to me and i always look forward to any sort of interaction with them like a class or whatever and i think about anything even slightly romantic that happens between us like 30 times over and i feel my heart racing and i get really giddy but then its like when we slow...... reply
don't wanna make you feel like you're missing out or anything but it's wayy more than just 'oh they're kinda nice i wanna spend time w them' (warning for cringe ass descriptions)
in my experience having a crush feels like you're on drugs. whenever you see them your head starts spinning, your heartbeat goes crazy, you can't breath, you can't talk,...... 1 reply
I feel the same as you except I don't really feel any romantic or sexual attraction to anyone (and I have no idea where I belong in the ace spectrum but thats not the point)

I saw your comment about you being older and mentioning having a feeling of confusion for what a crush is when you were younger. I know it doesn’t answer your original question for ‘what a crush feels like,’ but I just wanted to say some things to someone who is in a similar boat to me.
I think first of all, don’t worry about labelling you...... reply
