    25 DEVASTATING STAGES OF A NEW CRUSH

    You never knew true angst until now…

    1. You’ve met someone you really like

    2. They just became single

    3. This is it. This is definitely ‘the one’

    4. They just don’t know it yet

    5. So now you’re on a mission to win their heart

    6. Time to up your social media presence

    7. But you're not really a social butterfly. What you are is sitting home and pining

    8. Every time they pop into your head your stomach suddenly flips

    9. This happens often and it makes you tired and nauseas

    10. At this point, you don’t even lust after your favourite heartthrob any more

    11. Then, out of nowhere… they text you

    12. But what does it all meeeeean?

    13. You put a lot of thought into your response

    14. All hell breaks loose. You can see they’ve read it but they don’t reply

    15. Good luck getting any work done while you’re waiting

    16. When they FINALLY respond, you pretend to be very busy and important

    17. They want to meet up with you

    18. This produces excitement and severe anxiety

    19. But the date goes wonderfully

    20. It’s definitely in the bag now

    21. Horrifically, you don’t hear from them. It’s been days. It feels like months.

    22. You start to hate your phone with a vengeance

    23. Your best friend is now sick of your constant whining

    24. You comfort yourself the only way you know how…

    25. Until they call you. At which point, your life is once again complete.
