A crush can only last for four months. If it exceeds, you are in love.
True or false?
In a recent article I read, it said infatuation can only last for four months. People get bored, come to their senses, or merely realize the instant attraction wasn't everything they thought it was. If these feelings continue after that, it's a serious connection and the attachment is more than just a crush.
Things that make you go "Hmmm?"
I can honestly say I do not have an opinion on this. It's one of those psychological facts that I don't know if I should believe or not.
There is one thing I know:
If it is true, then the meaning of love has been devalued even more than I realized.
This means that people who have had crushes on the same person for longer than a few months are in love with them.
Seriously?
But...
On the other hand, I guess that would explain the heartbreak most of us experience when the other person is dating someone else or tells us they don't feel the same way.
And if it is more than just a crush, we've seriously underestimated our capibility for passion, and should find a way to express it in all areas of our lives.
