Comment on Anon likes a woman
FireRetardant@lemmy.world 6 hours agoWhy should i never meet my crushes? Should i just chase people i feel neutral about instead? A good crush inspires me to be romantic, carefully plan dates, and even take better care of myself, which is a nice cycle cause some of those things boost my confidence anyway even if the crush doesn’t feel the same way.

It’s not literal, it’s a play on never meet your heroes. The core concept is that you project the best of your internal morals and values onto them, and then when you meet them, you find out they’re not as nice, loving, caring, or compassionate as you expected.

I guess thats where i got lost. I usually need to get to know someone a bit for a crush to develop.
