That Strange Feeling Called 'a Crush' ...


Hey friends... this article had been lying at the bottom of my closet for quite sometime now... Hope you like it :)



I was just wondering the other day when you sort of fall for someone, why its called a crush? The dictionary meaning of the word crush is ‘pressed with violence so as to break, bruise or crumple’. I was thinking when you have a crush, are you supposed to break his bones, bruise his heart or is it because you land up crushing his bank balance & crumple all his feelings?! On the contrary, crush is associated with the beautiful feeling of love or more precisely, when you are on the verge of falling in love with someone, your friends tell you that “you are having a crush on someone”. I spoke to a few friends of mine who are a bit experienced in this matter…. nevertheless, we could not figure out why its called a crush!
