    I’m weird. A crush makes me act odd, feel shy and cringe at myself.

    I think that’s completely normal human behaviour.
    I don’t feel it should be, but it seems like it is.

    But a couple times I’ve been full-on infatuated. And that feeling somehow allows me to tap into a bottomless well of absolute confidence

    How does one gain this superpower?

      I’m aware, the wierd part is that I experience the two completely opposite effects.

      And I dunno, but it’s awesome. Like suddenly being yourself but at 200% power. The feelings of affection were so powerful, the need to be with the person so overbearing, the thought of not giving it my best shot was unthinkable. Just considering the possibility of not being with them was impossible (until it actually happened). The usual self doubt and overthinking just… Didn’t occur.

      I’m pretty sure it’s a matter of intensity. The first time was overwhelming, made every feeling I’d had before, of any kind, look like a joke.
