I'm So Vain I Probably Think This Blog is About Me


I recently found out that someone at work has a crush on me. That makes the fourth instance in my life that I know someone has had a crush on me. I'd say I've seen signs of 3 or 4 other crushes, but in those cases, I'm not sure. And as far as infatuations are concerned, maybe just one, maybe none. I'd also say a few friends have had man-crushes on me, but now I just sound like an ego-maniac.

For my own part, I've had about 5 crushes and 1 infatuation in my entire lifetime.

I've never been good a managing my own crushes, and particularly, those with crushes on me. I just don't seem to attract the people that I find most attractive. Oh well. I guess life could be a lot worse than complaining about the people who like you.

I've only had a few instances in my life where I've known a girl to have a crush on me (and zero instances with guys), but most of those have been both recent and with girls who I was really incompatible with. One was (and it's not just me, but well-agreed upon by all of her friends) pretty damn ugly in the face, and she was also very incompatible with me in terms of life-style. Another girl had a similar life-style to mine (insofar as diet, sedentary, indoors, etc) but she didn't have share any interests in common and was a dedicated Catholic Republican who thought her one Hell-worthy sin was her advocacy for morning-after pills in rape victims. The point is, it's always girls with whom I'm incompatible, and it makes me wonder what they see in me because usually when I get a crush on an incompatible woman it's because I'm crushing over her looks and cheery personality and not because she's my lifestyle soulmate.

I should have mentioned before hitting submit, but I do have my theory for the case of the Catholic conservative girl and that was the whole "attracted to naughty boys" thing. Even though I'm not naughty O_o , but to her obviously a fetus-aborting atheist multicultural nerd would be. Sort of like "opposites attract" but not exactly since there was no mutual affection on this side of the equation.
