Crush

"Falling in love" is mainly a Western term used to describe the process of moving from a feeling of neutrality towards a person to one of love. The use of the term "fall" implies that the process is in some way inevitable, uncontrollable, risky, irreversible, or that it puts the person in a state of vulnerability, in the same way the word "fall" is used in the phrase "to fall ill" or "to fall into a trap".


Although a crush is usually portrayed as something less serious, young people stuff; it still does have some things in common with "falling in love". Well, having a crush IS a form of falling in love. Every time I hear the word "crush", what comes to my mind is the word "stupid". People tend to do stupid things when they have a crush, and the level of stupidity varies among people. So, feel blessed my friends, while we are young and still can love stupidly. Cause being stupidly in love is sometimes the best way of falling in love. Cheers :D
