There was a girl at school I was friends with who I had a crush on for a few years. We did a liiiittle bit of flirting with passing notes and she was very kind but never took an interest in me romantically. I wrote her lots of poems which she was very nice about and I was in love, but it went nowhere. She ended up dating some other guy in our year group and I thought "what does he have that I don't?" but the heart wants what the heart wants. I don't regret it. It was a happy non love affair I think.
I actually ended up dating a girl in the year above me and she was awesome while it lasted but she left home and our relationship didn't survive the distance.
In the end I eventually married someone from work but it took us a while to get together because we both thought the other one was out of our league. We got together on the way back from an Ed Sheeran concert!
That's correct - the heart does want what it wants. And I've often been puzzled by the same.
Sometimes the heart wants a person who doesn't put it on a pedastal and asks if the heart wants to grab a coffee after class because the heart seems cool.
