Is it crazy to like someone that you've never met?
There's this guy I know that I've had class with him for a few weeks now, but the class only meets once a week, the class is a small discussion group with about 6 people but is lead by a student tutor. We don't have time to get to know each other one on one but I learned that him and I have things in common.
We've only talked once and he seems like a great guy, just by how the conversation flowed and how he is in the class, but I barely know anything about him.
Is it crazy to crush on someone that you barely know?

I think it's natural to crush on someone you barely meet. That's usually how relationships get started to begin with. Just be careful not to set yourself up for disappointment when you start to get to know him better. I think what we mostly think is so attractive in a person we hardly know is mostly what we have made them out to be in our minds before getting to the truth of the matter. So take it slow, get to know him better if you really like him, and try to see things for what they really are and not what you may be hoping for them to be.
its very common...i like giving them names like "elevator guy" or "guy who answers in class and it always surprises me"
When I read the title, I thought someone had stolen my latest entry.

Little help?
Crazy? No way! This happens all the time (sometimes far too often haha).
I'm going through this EXACT situation right now....except my crush is on the Student Tutor lol.

No. It's not weird. The End. :]
No, it's not weird. I get the same little crushes on guys like that in class :)
That's why it's called a crush.
definitely common, just like love at first sight... someone agrees and some doesn't...
just be yourself... good luck~
No, it's not weird at all. Happens to me all the time.
No. I met a guy online and I full on crushed on him for a while. I still think he's pretty rad. People connect on different levels and in different ways.
Nope not weird at all. That's how almost all relationships start I think.Â
Er...isn't it normal? I get crushes on people I barely know...it's more lust though. *shrugs* I don't act on it, so it's a non-issue.
That's how crushes start.
If it is crazy...
Then...what's love at first sight?
Most of my interests were like that....just something about that guy caught my eye...
It feels weird..because you're liking someone you barely know...cause usually we'd want to say "Oh yeah..he's got a really good personality..and we have this and that in common..he's nice to me..blah blah" so that, that is the reason we like that person..
@manishmathur - LOL i do that too... > < I thought i was weird..perhaps..it's normal~~ xD
noopees! unless you're in love with him... o.O
Well, at first I didn't even notice him haha so for sure it isn't his appearance that caught my eye.
But anyways, it's already too late, I did get to know him, and guess what? He has a girlfriend, bummer. But I'll get over it. Haha.
Thanks Datingish for posting ^^
I don't think that its weird. I felt the same way.
Just don't get too excited until you get closer to him, which I recommend.
I saw a guy and felt feelings toward him and after talking a lot we've became best friends.
But things don't always work out that nice so dont be hurt if they dont.
I agree with the others who say it's normal. That initial like is what gets things going!
It happens. It's called liking someone for who they represent.. As in liking the idea of them & all that they seem to be. Then it all changes once you get to know them on a more personal level. Sometimes it'll end up in a relationship, sometimes not even a friendship.
It's totally ok. As long as you aren't madly in love and aren't naming your children and anticipating grandchildren with this guy, you're totally normal. Strike up a conversation with him! Worst case scenario, it'll fizzle, but then you'll be able to at least say you tried
You have met him, you just don't know him~
I don't think it's crazy but I think you should try to get to know him more~
Yeah, it happened to me too. You should grab the chance to know him better. Cos I never did and I had regretted since.
