Dear takeflight:

Laure said it so beautifully: “Do not reject the way you feel…Just feel and tell yourself it is alright to feel that way!”- when you feel awkward about your crush, that is you feel embarassed, somewhat ashamed of feeling the way you do, it means you are judging your feelings as wrong, inappropriate, as if you shouldn’t be feeling what you are feeling. These… secondary feelings (shame) of disapproval of what your primary feelings (crush) are not good for you.

Interesting, you wrote a LITTLE crush. What comes to my mind is that this little crush is about your (naturally, as a human..) BIG need to connect, to love and be loved. It is the big need that fuels this little crush. If you feel comfortable to do so, and if you feel it may be helpful to you, please do share about the … big need.
