Hi, Lifebabblers. Today, we're babbling about something | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
which can be super exciting | 0:00:12 | 0:00:13 | |
and super awkward - having a crush on someone. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
As we grow up, our body changes and so do our feelings. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
We can experience all sorts of new feelings and sometimes | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
they can be confusing or a bit overwhelming. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
A crush is when you have strong feelings for another person. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
You really like them, much more than a friend. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
You might think about them a lot or want to see them all the time. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
Although you might find it hard to tell them that. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
A crush can feel really intense, | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
but it's normal to have those feelings as we get older. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Just enjoy it. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:44 | |
PHONE RINGS | 0:00:44 | 0:00:45 | |
When I saw my crush, my face would go really, really red. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
I began to worry about, like, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
saying the wrong thing and the right thing. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
I'd be scared and, like, awkward and feel nervous. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
I learnt to just be myself and that it's normal to feel this way. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
Crushes. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
No, the other kind. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
No, like the fancying kind. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
Yes, exactly. How are you supposed to handle that? | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
One day, you're totally fine, doing your own thing, the next, bam! | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
Someone amazing comes along and suddenly your feelings are | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
all over the place and you're excited and nervous and giddy | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
and embarrassed and all at the same time. It's like... I don't know. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:31 | |
Exactly! | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
If you do tell someone you like them, | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
then you probably hope they feel the same way, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
but if they don't, that's how they feel, it's not about you. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
You might feel sad or embarrassed or even angry, | 0:01:43 | 0:01:47 | |
but over time those feelings will fade. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
Sometimes you might have crushes on people you could never have a | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
relationship with in real life, | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
like a pop star, a sports coach or a teacher. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
It's normal to have feelings like this, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
but it's important to recognise that it's a crush. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
If your crush is a grown-up, they should never encourage you. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:09 | |
When things don't work out how you planned, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
It's really hard to understand. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
A person you hoped would really care doesn't feel the same | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
And it's just not fair. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:20 | |
Hurt and sadness last a while, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
But then they fade and you start to smile. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
Disappointment goes and you feel brand-new. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
You might not believe it, but it's true. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
# I think I've got a crush | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
# I don't know if I should tell them | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
# All I know is I really like them | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
# I think I'll just tell my best friend | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
# It's an odd feeling but it's so exciting... | 0:02:45 | 0:02:50 | |
# ..I've got a crush. # | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
PHONE RINGS | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
I once had a crush on a boy I worked on a show with, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
so I felt really, really nervous around him. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
When the show was over, | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
he didn't talk to me any more and I was really sad. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
I hadn't seen him in quite a while, so I got over him quite quickly. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
I can't remember a time in school when I didn't have | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
a crush on someone. Not that I ever really acted on any of them, | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
it was just fun. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
You need to realise that just because you have | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
a crush on someone doesn't mean that they are obliged to like you back, | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
so you might need to prepare for some heartbreak occasionally. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Even though it can get awkward if you find out that someone | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
has a crush on you and you don't feel the same way about them, | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
always be kind, let them down gently. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
There's no need to be mean. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
That's all for this Lifebabble. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
