π Let’s Talk: Crushes, BFs & GFs – What’s the Big Deal?
Hey there, Gen Z fam! π«
So… let’s be real — whether it’s a major crush, a cute “situationship,” or your first real relationship, everyone goes through it at some point. And it can feel exciting, awkward, confusing… sometimes all at once!
Let’s break it down and talk about it — without the drama. π
π³ What Even Is a Crush?
A crush is when you feel a little (or a lot) of something for someone.
Maybe you like how they smile. Or how they’re funny. Or how they’re just kinda different in a cool way.
Crushes are totally normal — they:
-
Can be fun or frustrating
-
Might fade over time or grow stronger
-
Don’t always need to turn into a relationship
Crush = feelings. But feelings ≠ facts. So keep calm, and don’t lose yourself over one.
π¬ What About Boyfriends & Girlfriends?
Having a BF or GF can feel like:
-
Having a best friend who makes your heart race
-
Feeling seen, liked, and cared about
-
Someone to laugh with, text, and support you
But it’s also:
-
A responsibility
-
About respect, trust, and honesty
-
NOT something to rush into just because “everyone has one”
If you’re not ready — totally okay! Your worth is not based on having a relationship.

Here’s a quick cheat sheet:
✅ Green Flags (Good Signs):
-
They respect your space
-
They listen to you
-
You can be yourself around them
-
You feel happy and confident
❌ Red Flags (Bad Signs):
-
They pressure you or make you feel bad
-
They lie or gossip
-
You feel ignored, small, or stressed
-
They're only nice when others are watching
π§ What You Should Know:
π It's okay to have feelings. You're human!
π
♀️ It’s also okay to not have a crush or relationship right now.
π€ Treat people the way you want to be treated — with kindness.
π§♀️ Your peace is more important than chasing drama or fake love.
The best relationships come from friendship first — when you trust and care for each other without pressure.
✨ Final Thoughts
Crushes, BFs, GFs — it’s all part of growing up.
But remember: You matter the most. Not who you like, or who likes you.
Take your time. Learn about yourself. Laugh, explore, grow.
And when the right one shows up, you won’t need to chase.
They’ll walk beside you. ❤️
