it makes everything so much sweeter and giddier!!
the best part about having a crush is sharing it with your bffs — highly recommend a multi hour phone call or in person gab sesh ala Aquamarine (10/10 movie in general, but the friend & crush vibe is elite)
lean into the silliness!! Learn to laugh at yourself when you catch the crush making you silly. consider how damn endearing it is when you see someone so earnestly in like and enjoy that quality in yourself

Makes your day soooo much more fun. Can be as unrealistic or realistic as you like. Enjoy it.

just saw an anti rec for crushes, and i have been there too, but right now i am enjoying it. saw a video of chris fleming saying, “A CRUSH??? IN THIS ECONOMY???” the other day, and fully understood…but at the same time a crush can really boost your spirits at this time in human existence (at least it has boosted mine). sometimes you need to giggle and twirl your hair and kick your feet!!! okay!!!

at least casually. don’t delete the accounts but don’t have the apps on your phone either.
rediscover your love of reading thru the magic of recognizing titles strangers are holding on the subway. become a subway reader.
don’t use sound as an escape from your thoughts/feelings/surroundings. grocery shopping without headphones is actually kind of beautiful!
pick up a new hobby or two or three. one of them should be something you’re not good at, and at least one should be no- or low-cost.
never. stop. learning. the library, the parks and rec department, and nearby museums offer great materials already but also usually have free lectures or courses.
go outside more. like, a lot more.
(took this much less literally, so apologies if it’s not what you’re looking for lol — as a narcoleptic I have no tips on how to Not Sleep since Sleep is basically my job)

keeps it funky, keeps it fresh! a book for outside, a book for downstairs, a book for bed, a book for the subway, a book for the bathtub…..
