I am very nostalgic reading your article; great job. My head might as well be Little Karachi (Most my crushes being from Karachi, Pakistan) However, my crush songs are metal and hardcore.

Check out Story of the Year's "We Are Not Gonna Make It." Off of Black Swan.

Hello, i need your help. See i have a crush on this really cute guy since i moved schools (late last year) and my ex bestie found out i liked him (via guessing it because her crush is mines best friend. And my constant staring at him.) A few weeks later she told him. Now my other friend was talking to him in the school libary, and he accused me of making him fail in english and maths. When i did next to nothing! I have nothing to do with him! Some part of me doesn't beleive it. Allthough a few times i find him looking at me. I dont harras him. His friends are the toxic ones here. Not me, what do i do? Im really confused so i came to you.

Also, sorry for my spelling errors.

while this list was useful im going to go on my own path and just write my own song and have my friend help with the music

Hey, it's me again.

So, I took your advice in confessing to him and under no circumstances shall I watch his confession tomorrow. We talked about that matter in private messaging since I am too shy to open up the video call and he respected that. He panicked slightly and pleaded to come and watch just for support. I told him no, and that I told him that I have to discuss that sort of thing to him (and surprise surprise, confess to him in the middle of the convo). He told me to just say it in chat but I insisted on face-to-face since I was going to confess, he won't see if my facial expression would be sincere and all and I want to express my feelings to him vocally.

The next day, I wanted to back out since confessing is too overwhelming for me considering this is the first time I have to confess to the guy I love. After classes, he called me (for the first time) and told me to follow him at the back of the school so that we will talk.

It was really far from how we talk in the PMs cause in reality, we talk awkwardly, like we were meeting each other for the first time but after a few topics, we recovered from the awkwardness and began talking like best friends. He suddenly brings up the topic about the girl he likes and that's where everything happened.

He starts of describing how amazing she is and how approachable she is and stuff, and I admit I was very jealous and I was sad at the same time, thinking of wow what a wonderful girl she is and told him, "Wow, you will be a very lucky guy if she falls for you after your confession today." and a question hit me, "Did you already confess? How'd it go?"

He simply blurts out, "Yeah, I'll be really lucky if you'll fall for me."

I played it off as if I was hearing the wrong thing and laughed and told him to say it again because I didn't hear him correctly and he confessed AGAIN.

Well, I didn't manage to confess first before him since he beat me through it but here I am, thanking you for your advice as I am having a video call with my pretty sweet boyfriend in the other window lol.

Thank you so much~!! XOXOX

I have a crush on one of my colleagues at work. We have known each other for almost a year. I started to have feelings for her the past few months and hence began my very subtle attempts at flirting and geting to know her better.

Thing is i don’t know if she likes me too.

And I’m not sure if she even knows I’m flirting with her.

She doesnt initiate conversations in text. But we can talk quite a lot at work.

She is of the shy type but has a group of friends (guys and girls) whom she regularly goes out with. I thought I didnt have any chance of getting together with her until few days back when I decided to take a leap of faith and asked her out for dinner which she suprisingly agreed too. I was suprised as she always have dinner plans with her friends. Just the two of us, we had a nice evening where we talked a lot about work, family, the past etc.

I just dont know what to make of it. Do I have a chance? Im scared of ruining a precious friendship.

I have been dropping many hints past few months; staying back to help her even though we are different departments, buying her dinner when she is doing night shift, caught me staring at her few times and virtually being around her most of the time at work. Though I dont know if she notices it or not

I am in love with this guy.

We met by a friend when we were added in a Messenger groupchat, a groupchat for friends or so she says. He is a really silent kid while I'm an upbeat, energetic kiddo. I had no intentions of falling for him and I just thought of him as a schoolmate of mine (we are not classmates). One day, I happen to touch a topic while talking to my best friend in the groupchat that sparked his interests, it was actually surprising to find out we had the same interests and that was when he actually started to chat in the groupchat.

Starting from that day, we always chat on that groupchat of ours, with our friends telling us to just PM each other since we are noisy haha.

He always chats me first in the groupchat, sometimes mentioning me if I don't see it directly. When we chat in PMs, either he chats first or tells me in the groupchat to chat in the PM first for some reason. Even if we are only very close in chats and just look at each other silently in person, I still fell in love with my schoolmate.

He told me that in two days, he is going to confess to a girl that he recently likes and apparently my friends know it excluding me, the closest friend that is girl (in which he says so), who doesn't know anything about that girl. He told me to go at xxx location if I want to see him confessing. I told him that I'm not going (to keep my heart from shattering btw, I did not tell him that lol) but he insists that I go so I'll go.

I'm actually shaking since this is the first time I encountered this situation. Does he like me? Do I make the first move and confess? What do I do? This is the first time I fell in love with someone and I don't know what to do.

I love this guy, and I've been texting him recently but he takes so long to reply! I don't know if he loves me or not!

When he does reply it's quite flirty but I just can't work it out. It's always over a day to reply which is why I have my doubts but it's painful and I really need some help!

Do I try stop myself from loving him or keep talking to him?

Hey there again! I know its been a while, but yeah I finally told him (not directly, but it will make sense in a minute)... We had a masquerade dance last weekend and I went; he was also there as well as some of our other friends. I wasn't planning on telling him that night, but eventually I got the courage to request a slow song a few songs later when it came on, I asked him if he wanted to dance with me. He's an amazing dancer (he's been doing choreography for our theater productions and he's been dancing since he was a kid), and it felt amazing to dance with him. Also as the song was ending he told me that he wanted to talk to me, and he also told me to go get my phone because he wanted to take a picture of me on one of the spiral staircases. So I went back to our table and grabbed my phone and then we walked over to the staircase and he took a very nice picture of me and told me I was pretty. we then went up the stairs to the balcony/landing that went around the square room and well this is what happened... He told me that he really values me as a friend and doesn't want to lose me as one, and then he told me something about himself that he said he does not really tell anyone, especially anyone from our hometown (we're both from the same city) (you can probably guess what it is, I'm just omitting it out of respect for him). He was so sweet about the whole thing, he was even apologizing, but I told him that he didn't have to because its part of who he is and that is nothing to apologize for. Despite the slight disappointment, I feel so honored that he trusted me enough to tell me. Then we had a nice conversation and he called me gorgeous and said he truly thinks there is someone out there for me. He also still wants to go to coffee with me and he recommended a place that he likes that I've never been to. So yeah I didn't actually tell him directly, but I think it was just really obvious when I asked him to dance (I truly tried to stay calm, but I was really nervous so I stuttered a little).

Also the people running the campus event were taking Polaroids and he asked me if I wanted to take one with him before we left which was really nice and he asked me if I wanted to keep it (so yeah I did :))

Anyways, I just thought I would tell you what happened since you kind of helped me through this. I guess I just have a lot of mixed emotions, and I really really liked him and I know my feelings are not going to fade right away, but knowing myself well enough I will get through it and move on after some time passes. I'm just glad that we're still friends and that it went smoothly compared to the terrible scenarios my anxiety cooked up in my brain, lol.. So once again, thank you. :)

I really like this kid at my church and he looks over at me often . We avoid talking to each other bc I think we are both too nervous. I really think he could be a special part of my life .

Hi again! So I've been attempting to subtly flirt with the guy I like. It's going okay I think? And well a few small things happened and I would like a second opinion on it. So I was working on a group project with him and one of our other friends, we met in a study room in the library (it's a small room with a table, a computer in the corner and a whiteboard on the wall). The guy I like was using the computer and was also writing down things we found on the board, and me and our other group member were using our laptops. At some point I found something to write on the board, he looked busy reading something so I said I would write it down. There was a marker in the basket on the tablet was going to grab it but he suddenly turned around from the computer and handed me the marker he was using. And I'm know for a fact that I didn't imagine it, our hands touched... also when we were done researching, our other group member was in charge of the PowerPoint so she was typing everything. My crush and I started practinf chemistry problems on the board and despite there being two markers we were just passing the marker back and forth... I realize maybe I'm making a big deal of nothing but I'm pretty sure I felt something there...

The other thing that happened, just the other night at rehearsal for the opera I'm in, he's helping with costumes and choreography, he and the main costumer called me back to try some things on. They were still figuring things out so I was basically just putting different things over the shirt I was wearing. He handed me this dress/long shirt and he started putting it on for me. I was able to keep my composure but wow! Then the main costumer cracked a joke saying "isn't she capable of putting it on herself?" And he replied (also in a joking tone) "nooo she isn't!" And we all just kinda laughed and yeah.

And one more thing, my friend who is also in the cast told me that at the tech call last weekend for the opera, they were looking for things for costumes and my crush came across a dress and asked my friend if she though that I would look good in it. My friend said yes and then my crush said that he thought I would look hot in it

So those are just a couple of the big things, another small thing: I had to work with him today in lab again and we talked quite a bit, I just asked him how choreography was going and we talked about that and then as its International Women's Day, I noticed he made a Facebook post dedicated to his younger sister in honor of the day and I casually mentioned it that I thought it was a really sweet post and that branched into a little conversation about how close he is with his sister. :)

So yeah do these seem like potential signs or should I still wait it out? I'm somewhat debating asking him if he wants to get coffee sometime and if I time it right I might just admit my feelings. I don't want to rush anything, and I understand if he doesn't feel the same way then that's just how it is and I'll get over it eventually, it's just I don't want to drag this to the very end of the semester (there's only like 2 months left..). Sorry this turned into an essay, but I really appreciate your input and advice. Thanks so much! :)

I am a 29-year-old female. Up until recently, I've had crushes only on men. However, there is a female coworker who I have grown attached to in the 10 months I've been in my department. She has a very warm, approachable personality, she always compliments my efforts at work, she notices little things I say and do and she's always been very supportive of me from day one. I realized I have a crush on her 3 months ago and the feeling is still going strong. She makes my day better with a smile aimed my way, or a conversation during lunch break. We've grown closer as friends, but I don't want to tell her how I feel because I don't want to ruin the friendship we have, I don't know if she likes girls too and we're coworkers, which complicates things a little bit. However, I wish she knew how amazing she is in my eyes.

Thank you so much for responding to my comment! I appreciate the advice you've given and I will do my best to put it into action... I'm quite introverted and a little shy, I also don't have much (like barely any) experience with relationships and flirting, so this is sort of difficult for me. (I had to have a lot of encouragement from my best friend to actually work up the courage to ask him to the play I mentioned that we saw last weekend). We were both out of town last week for a science conference and ended up being lab partners for the chemistry lab we missed. We came in on our own time yesterday so I did get to spend a bit of time with him and have casual small talk while doing the lab, so that was nice. :) We're going to see each other again during our actual lab period tomorrow so that will be another opportunity. Thank you so much for the encouragement! :)

I like someone, I have no idea if he likes me back though... We've been friends for a little over a year and I just recently started to realize my feelings. We both have the same major and we both love participating in theater. He can be a bit dramatic and kinda gets on people's nerves sometimes, but he is also really sweet and has always been especially kind to me. I already kinda took a first step, a co-worker invited me to play she was in and I bought two tickets from her and asked him if he wanted to go, he agreed and we both really enjoyed the play. I had the intention to ask if he wanted to get food afterwards, but I chickened out (this was actually 2 days ago). I guess I'm just not sure what to do next... I don't want to be super obvious about my crush on him, but at some point I hope he figures out or at least gets a hint... Do you have any input?

There is this boy and I was just dreaming about him but we are just really good friends. But I do 't know what the dream was for though. I do think about him sometimes

i sent my crush a valentine. We are both girls so I didn't know what she would do. She told my friend she likes girls and wants to know who I am. I don't know what to do because we never talk and I'm really awkward.

This was helpful- never heard any of these before!

Ive been falling so hard for this guy and we kissed.. it was magical but now I dont know how he feels anymore and all i wanna do is call him mine..

i like her so so so much. but shes with someone else and it breaks my heart. im so jealous. ive been thinking about her almost nonstop nov2017

Great collection. If someone loves anyone, it is great thing. Real love is rare.

i cant help falling in love with you

I have this crush on one of my closest friends and he use 2 like my friend...he "says" he got over her and has a new crush and he likes her more but he won't tell me who...he always says things That seems like it me but I dont want 2 get my hopes up

A few weeks ago, my ex best friend told the guy I liked that I called him a b#@%&. Now he won't talk to me. We have to find partners to sing with for a talent show. And just because of some of these songs, I'm going to ask him to sing with me. (I never called him a b##%)

"Secret love song"

By: Little mix

This is my all time favorite song you'll like it too

...Hopfully

So theirs this guy I like his name is connor he is 15 but his parents are my family doctors, So I only see him like 5 times a month and im crazy about him and i cant stop thinking about him!!! can you help me...?

I never really knew I liked my crush until earlier this year.I liked her last year but it was like for a month or so.Back then when I wasnt really into her,she kept giving me this suspicious look like she wanted to tell me something but was scared to say.This happened in the beginning of last year. Then through out the year she i kinda felt like she lowkey liked/likes me too.Like me and my friends were talking about liking the same gender and i was like my friends will sill love me no matter who i liked and so to prove that I went to my crush which is my friend till this day and asked her if she would still be my friend if I liked the same gender and she told me that she didnt care and she would still love me no matter what.And me and another one of my friends were really lose and rumors were going around saying that were were dating or we did.My crush over heard that and when we went to our 3/4 block she was like ¨Why didnt you tell me.¨ at that point I was confused and then she told me what she hear.Right there are to signs.Actually three,the looks,dont care if i dated the same gender,and me telling her that i dated the same gender.Towards the end of last year she started coming out about herself and how she likes girls cause I guess the end of the year was a confession section so we played never have I ever and then started coming out about stuff and she told us how she liked girls and at that time she glanced at me here and there.Till this day when I look up,we seem to meet eye contact and it stays for like 30 seconds but i always seem to break the gaze mainly cause i cant stand looking people in the eye.When she is aroun and make each otheres day.Our classes are right next to each others and when I seem to leave or arrive to class she gets excited to see me.I honestly think I play my cool about liking her then she lays hers bout liking me.d me we seem to have a good time and make each other laugh When this school year happened I had a stronger crush on her and my other friends thought i should tell her nd I did.When I told her her whole face lit up,like shes been waiting for me to say that but at the same time I think she was afraid to admit that she has feelings for me.When people started making things weird I told her I didnt like her anymore and i can tell that she didnt believe it and if she did she kinda got sad.Now when we hang out,for some reason her skirt is always under when when we are on the bus and we pretty much act like we are a couple.Im trying to find out if she really likes me or not and shes been throwing some of the signs but im not fully convinced.Probably like 50%. Im not the jealous type but every time she talks about the dudes fighting over her or her friend thats at another school I start to feel some type of way but never show it.We are both girls by the way and she lives on the other side of the block from me.

Perfect- ed sherran

My crush has a girlfriend. He keeps looking at me and I really like him although he hasn't asked me out. My friends know I like him and they are in the same class as he is, overtime I see them with him they get along so well it makes me really jealous.

So i want to ask something about my best friend. She likes this guy but she wont admit it at least not always. The guy she likes is a HUUUGE player and one day hes all over her and the other he doesnt even notice her. My friends and i know that she really liked hin but we know what person he is. What should we do? Advice please

Imagination by Shawn Mendes is also about crushes

I have already asked my crush out. She rejected me but I'm still crazy for her. The only trouble is that I am shy so I can't ask her out again. Plz help. What do I do?

Words I couldn't say - Rascal Flatts

Though has different meanings to different people one of which is have a crush, but never telling them and goes on to regret it.

What do I do now that you're gone?

No back up plan, no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

I shold have found away to tell you how I felt

Now I'm only tellin' myself.

Oh and Love you out loud isn't about a crush with lyrics like

now that your in my arms, and just how good your live looks on me.

It's about expressing his love for her after they got together.

I'm listening to it right now and that's at least what it sounds like to me.

Well, I love this list. I have a crush on this guy and he always seems to be staring at me and whenever he sees me he smiles (or so my friends say) so I descided to sing for him since I know he's really into music and he really liked it. We're both into DDLG so I'm just waiting for him to ask me out but my friend told me that he asked her advice on how to ask me out so I know I won't be waiting very long

What about "Hot for Teacher"?? :)

enchanted- taylor swift

"please dont be in love with someone else, please dont have somebody waiting on you"

I don't know any of the songs in your playlist, but as always I enjoyed reading the descriptions and other information. You always have great ideas for your music articles!

Amazing as always and a fantastic job! I am always amazed at how many songs you find on these themes.

Great list!

Love at eleven will live on forever in memories worth more than gold. Can anyone truthfully say she's forgotten her love at eleven years old. I looked for the DVD with this song "Love at Eleven but could not find it. It must be on an album or an audio tape.

Don’t Cry Joni - Conway Twitty & Joni Lee

This is about a soldier who went to war and couldn’t help thinking about the girl next door who had a crush on him. When he returned she had married his best friend.

“Dancing Your Memory Away” Charly McClain

“A picture of me without you” Lorrie Morgan

“I can’t help the way that I don’t feel” Sylvia

Blessings my dear friend.

Beautiful songs and I enjoy listening to music.

Who can forget their first crush? Speedwagon's Can't Fight this Feeling sure brought back memories. :-) Thanks so much, again for the wonderful music.

You really went back in time for this one--I wonder how many "youngsters" have never even heard of the Kinks? This was a fun list, but I'll have to admit that the newer songs (less than 20 years old?) I had not heard. You are expanding my repertoire!

You forgot to say that you always went red as a beet when you saw them coming towards you! LOL! great list, and yes we all had the horrible crush feeling!

There is one hint you are in love/have a crush - all the love songs that you thought were stupid now make sense. A bad sign!

I do have crushes or rather infatuations and that's a problem. I'd rather stay at the stage of flirting - you are mutually attracted and play games, but know that it won't go any further. It just makes you feel good. But it's a slippery slope - before you know you have a crush which will result in one crash or another - been there, done that.

A crush might/will make you look like a fool or a nuisance or both - been there/done that.

I live in an entirely different and unique musical world, whatever accentuates my current mood will be on my play list (on repeat) even the stupidest songs - been there/done that.

Music actually makes things worse - it keeps your mind on that wave 24/7 - you play a song a few times and it is stuck in your head for eternity - been there/done that.

I really liked "Stuck Like Glue", but I had to close my eyes not to be distracted by the video clip. The song is super repetitive and therefore completely irresistible.

The problem/challenge of music is that music and heart reside in the same place - the brain, of course, but in it's emotional department. Do you want to control that? Sorry, access denied.

So, I cheat! I listen to the songs where I don't understand the lyrics, which is only a temporary solution because soon enough... I do understand it.

So, I cheat even more. Speaking of Chinese... that's a long way to go - I really don't understand the lyrics!!!

Did I mention that I am odd?

Having a crush on someone is so exciting, but also futile. I am so glad I have outgrown my tendency to develop crushes.

Useful and excellent playlist! Thank you, FlourishAnyway.

Flourish, I'm listening to David Archuleta while I write this comment. This is a secret: My first crush never ever spoke to me. We grew up, left home and all I had were memories of wishing and hoping. Fast forward 50 years. He called to express condolences when my mother died, and we've have talking ever since. Just a mature, friendly friendship--no more crush!
