Write about your first crush.

My First Crush 💗 💗 💗

Having a sister that dances and competes as a dancer is never ever easy. In her younger years, I was bored to tears watching a bunch of girls dance, and I thought girls were icky at that time was very very boring.

Then, at age 11, I realized girls were not so icky and then I had crushes on the worst kind of girls in the world, the kind that were beautiful, fit, talented, the kind that would never give me the time of day to save my life.

One such girl was a year younger than me and competing with my sister for many years dancing. Not to mention she was also a very, very good singer, brownish blondish, hair and beautiful, brown eyes. I was completely smitten with her.

I remember playing basketball and doing layups professing my love to her as I ran up to the basket. The dumb things you do when you’re 11 and in love, I remember drawing a bunch of three-dimensional squares on a piece of paper and connecting them to other squares and other squares and other squares. Sort of an art project. not a very good one but when you’re in love, you’ll do anything.

I remember I gave it to her. She was with two other girls that were also pretty popular. I remember my head was down. My face was burning red, and I gave the paper to her and ran away.

I remember it always ask my sister if she was interested my sister danced with her and she always tell me these lines that were horrible put off lines like “that’s nice” or “she kind of likes me “. I sort of felt like Lloyd Christmas in Dumb and Dumber when he presented with 1 million to one odds of being with the girl he loved, and he said “ so you’re telling me there’s a chance”.

There were some things we had in common though that was nice we both like Pac-Man and used to play doubles. I loved that being so close to her and that small space and she not minding and we cuss out the monsters when we played the game. Those are the moments I try to remember where we are all the same like in the same kind of things at that time video games MTV movies the one time we were all the same at least in that way.

I’d look for any small piece of hope, and I grabbed on it no matter how slim. This girl will go on to perform in starlight Express and Vegas for a while while at least I picked a good one for my first. I had a slight crush on her older sister in high school, singing and dancing. Boy does it capture my interest in fancy. I seen you recall another girl from the dance studio that was on commercials for Strawhat pizza and I had a crush on her for a while too. I think her name was Jennifer as well cruel how fate had me around these beautiful girls they were so talented and so uninterested in me.

As always, Thank you for reading.
