Should you always persue a crush?

Question - (2 May 2008) 4 Answers - (Newest, 2 May 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I am really confused about this. I just don't know if one should always pursue a crush. I believe that since you only live once, you should most definitely go for it. The worst that can happen to you is he'll reject you. But at least then you won't wonder the rest of your life if you two ever have a chance, right?

But what if the person I like is my professor? Should I still pursue it? Because while I am scared of rejection... somehow it won't sit well with me if I just let go, and I will always wonder if I actually tried, would I actually have a chance?

But in general, would you say that one should always pursue a crush? Just because you only get to live once (which is my motto).

Aunt tilly agony auntI agree with the other aunts, keep your distance from this man, as it would be quite inproper thing to do by making a play for him. And also is he a married man with a family, not only would his career be jeopordised but his life with his family would be ruined. Would you in all honesty want that to happen all because of a crush. x

lexilou agony auntThis man is out of bounds so no dont pursue this crush. It could have serious implications on his future and yours and will end up messy. Now if you fancy the pizza delivery guy thats a different matter. Life is only lived once yes but dont mess it up x

I dont think this is a topic that should be generalised because. To many other factors come into play which will effect whether or not you should. For example, if you like a guy who has a gf, should you go for him because if you dont you will always wander? Meanwhile you would be disrespecting his realtionship with his gf and being insensitive to her feelings? I dont think you should in that situation.

And I think your situation is one of those as well. If you try to go after him, rumours might start and this could ruin his career. Most professors probably wouldnt even dream of datng a student because they love their career so I think its fair to say that in this situation nothing would come of it. So dont keep wandering what if...realise that he is probably a sensible guy who wants to keep his job.
