Too Average

Crushed

As girls usually do, I had crushes all throughout elementary school. They tended to be awkward people. I guess I had a thing for that sort of clumsy cuteness. But anyway, they were usually kind people (at least towards me) and I fell for that.

Everyone in the books I read described feeling as if their best parts of them came out when they were near their crushes. For me, it was different. I wondered if maybe the books were wrong. Or if maybe I didn't actually know what a crush was. But after a while I realized, "Yup, this is a crush, bro. And yes, it is going to suck." Instead of feeling amazing and carefree when I was around my crushes I felt even more binded by the word average. Feeling as though my crushes would never be interested in me because of my averageness; That they'd find me boring.

It took me some time but, eventually, I realized that crushes aren't usually like the books for most people. Unfortunatly, that did not make me feel any better. It was just one more average thing to add to my average list of the average characteristics of plain, old average me. It sucked. Really bad.

I got over my crushes though, one by one. It wasn't too hard, wasn't too easy. It just happened.
