I'm Emma, a 16-year-old girl. All my life I have struggled with being introverted. I have found it hard to make friends and more. My first friend was a girl named Naomi, she is now my best friend. We have been friends forever. Her dark black locks framed her face, highlighting the warm, chocolate hue of her eyes. Often she wore sunglasses, which many people admired making her look mysterious and cool. Although, she has to take them off a lot in school because of the teachers.Also crushes, crushes are something so popular. All the girls will talk about some guy they really like, but the thing is, I can't relate. I have never had a crush. Yet I still push myself through because I know someday I will find a boy that makes me happy. Even though I'm 16, I've never had a crush and it makes my brain go in circles of confusion. Surely, I had thought I would have liked a guy by now but no, still no crush.

I have found girls attractive, never guys but I'm just assuming that this is because I haven't found the guy of my dreams and that girls are just really pretty, and that they catch my eye. I'm beginning to worry about myself, even though it's probably fine. Shouldn't I have gotten a crush by now?

Right now, I pretend I have this crush, his name is Georgie. He has soft brown fluffy hair that reminds me of wool, dark chocolate eyes, a normal guy style and listens to music a lot(normally metal music). He is pretty sweet, but I would never want to kiss him or anything like that. He usually wears a gray or black hoodie with jeans. I've tried my best to memorize everything about him to make sure no one suspects I don't like him.

Sadly, this is just the start of my problems.
