Define Crush

When I was about ten years old, I heard a lot of my classmates talk about crushes. I didn't understand what they were talking about so I just ignored them, but at the back of my head I asked, "Why are they so obsessed talking about plane crashes these days?" By the time I was twelve years old, I found out that a crush refers to a person whom you admire and have affection for. This kind of innocent child mind is what I really miss, and is something that I always laugh about. Were you aware what a crush really was back then?

You and your brothers must have been very close. I have an older brother but we never really talked about stuff like that. Actually, we rarely talk. We only started to talk a lot by the time we became adults.

Do you know a song called Crush, sang by David Archuletta? I know the meaning of crush from that song

Definitely. Who could have ever missed an iconic song that initially describes how we think and feel towards a person whom we have a crush on.
