What a coincidence that tomorrow is Valentine's Day, as this episode is all about a high school crush, my super secret high school crush!
High school crushes can be filled with all sorts of emotions and memories.
My HS crush, which started back in middle school band, was certainly not short on emotions and embarrassing moments, for me!
Looking back, now that I've been diagnosed with autism, I can see many of the ways I went wrong in my crush, mainly in schemes that I kept to myself in my head instead of sharing with a trusted adult to gain some much needed wisdom.
Thankfully I found that much needed wisdom a few years later through some wonderful mentors, but at the time, I stumbled through high school in some pretty comical ways.
Again, thankfully, no major damage was done, and I only benefitted from my far-reaching ideas and schemes.
Still, I would recommend getting advice whenever possible, especially as a teenager, autism or not!
