We’re not acting weird, we’re just crushing hard, and ooh, shut up, they’re about to pass. Hands up if you’ve done several of these 21 things that we all do when we’re infatuated with our latest crush.

1.

Stalk-Them-On-Facebook

Step one. How else are you going to fall deeper in love?

2.

Stalk-Their-Friends-On-Facebook

Just because their privacy settings are cranked up doesn’t mean you’re not going to enjoy photos of them.

3.

Memorize-Their-Every-Move
Not willingly, of course. That would be weird. You happen to know because you’re there.

4.

Daydream-About-Them

Saving them from a fire, rescuing them from their inferior beau, so many things to dream about, such little time.

5.

Dress-Up-Well-If-They
And your friends go “Wtf, I didn’t know you owned such a nice shirt.”

6.

You-Analyze-Their-Behaviour--Around-Yourself

‘Did he actually catch my eye or was that just my imagination?” “I bet she likes my jacket. I wonder if she’s cold?”

7.

Blush-Deeply-If-They-Catch--You-Checking-Them-Out

Followed by that weird gesture where you go to grab your face but your hand never reaches, instead hanging in mid air.

8.

Use-The-Word“We”-When--Describing-Your-Time-Together
“We totally went to that class. Yeah, I think she noticed me.”

9.

You-Laugh-At-The--Inside-Jokes--They-Share-With--Their-Friends
Because you’ve gotten to know all about them.

10.

You-Disguise-Your-Laughter--At-Their-Inside-Jokes-Poorly

“I was just laughing at that… rock.”

11.

You-Picture-Them-When--A-Catchy-Love-Song-Plays
At first it will make the song 1000x better, then you’ll never be able to listen to it again.

12.

You-Look-Up-Their-Exes
Damn they’re good looking, but they can’t match your personality. Can they?

13.

You-Have-A-Mini-Meltdown

You realize how plain looking you are, how lame your hobbies are and how you’re never going to be attractive to this person.

14.

Cause-Your-Friends-To-Have-A-Mini-Meltdown

Because they’re so sick of you mentioning this person all the damn time.

15.

Plead-With-A-Friend-Who’s--Threatening-To-Tell-Them

“No, please! I’m not ready yet!”

16.

Sub-consciously--Hate-Everyone-They-Talk-To

And make it quite evident from your interactions.

17.

Imagine-Them-Confessing

Right in the middle of work, they come up to you and say that you’re everything they’ve ever wanted in life, and how they were made to be yours, forever. Ahh.

18.

Cringe-At-The--Thoughts--You’re-Having

Sheesh. Wash your face, go play some football or get out and get some fresh air. Oops, there they are again, looking extra ravishing.

19.

Deny-That-You-Like--Them-To-All-Your-Friends

After it’s become common knowledge that you worship and don’t miss any chance to ogle them. Oh, and after you said so yourself, a few short weeks ago.

20.

Have-Imaginary--Conversations--With-Them

Such deep, fulfilling and void-stuffing conversations were not even had by Gandhi. No, they don’t mind that your toenail is three inches long, they find it endearing. And sexual.

21.

Sleep-Hugging-Your-Pillow-At-Night

Pretending that the pillow is them.
