    Talk about having a crush on someone.

    Almost everyone has a crush on someone. It's a positive emotion to be into someone. It can make the
    heart flutter, and provide a pick-me-up in life. We go the extra mile to be nice to the object of our
    affection. But if such affection is not shared, it can be heart-breaking. That's what makes crushing on
    someone so difficult. The more you like someone, the more you will feel down and out. If the person you
    like takes a liking to someone else, or if they are going steady with someone else already, the pain reaches
    a breaking point. It feels like the world is coming to an end, and you lose your drive. In time, these
    emotions will fade and wounds will heal over. However, at the time, they are the most gut-wrenching
    moments of one's life.
