Would you believe it, that it still happens?<br />In India, there are some unpleasant developments in the recent past arising out of unrequited love, in the form of acid attacks on women who spurn advances or proposals. http://vitalvoicesonline.org/blog/2009/07/28/acid-attacks-against-women-on-the-rise/<br /><br />On the other hand, I am currently counseling a young lady who is besotted with a young man who is engaged to be married to someone else.

That's when a go-between could come in quite handy.<br /><br />Megan - So what's a crush and what's genuine attraction? You could argue that if it's a genuine attraction you'll approach the other person straightaway and it's either yea or nay. But if you do nothing about it, then it's really just an unreal crush.Nicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-42790664879393491222010-06-12T05:49:52.876+01:002010-06-12T05:49:52.876+01:00Oh, hell yes.
