Share your 8th grade crush stories.

In 6th grade, I had a crush on a boy in my class. He was really good at drawing. I would always steal glances at him during art class. One day, I mustered up the courage to compliment his drawing. He just smiled shyly, and that made my heart flutter even more.

Well, in 8th grade I had a boyfriend. We used to pass notes in class. It was really cute. We would write things like how much we liked each other's smiles. But then summer came and we went to different camps, and slowly drifted apart. It was sad at first but looking back, it was just a sweet and innocent part of growing up.

At my 8th grade prom, I was really nervous at first. But when the music started, I just let go. I remember the prom king and queen being announced. It was such a big deal. There were balloons everywhere and the food was great. I had a blast.

Often, proximity plays a role. Sitting next to someone in class or being on the same team for a project can lead to a crush. Also, kindness is a big factor. If a person is always helping others or being friendly, it's easy to develop a crush on them. For instance, I had a crush on a girl who was always sharing her snacks with everyone. It was her kindness that attracted me.

One of my favorite days in 7th grade was the day we had a special guest speaker in our class. It was an author who wrote adventure books that I loved. He talked about his writing process and how he got his ideas. I was so inspired that I started writing my own stories. That day really changed my perspective on creativity.

Well, my first crush was this girl in my piano class. She played the piano so beautifully. I used to sit and watch her fingers glide over the keys. I was too shy to talk to her much at first. Then one time, we were paired for a duet practice. It was amazing. I fell for her even more during that time. Eventually, we became good friends but nothing more. It was still a great experience.

Common things in 8th grade crush stories include having secret glances at your crush all the time. You don't want them to notice, but you can't help looking. There's also the daydreaming about being with them. You might imagine going to the school dance together or just walking hand - in - hand. And sometimes, there are friends who try to play matchmaker, which can either make things better or really embarrassing.

I had a crush on my neighbor when I was a teenager. We used to hang out all the time, riding bikes and playing games. One evening, we were sitting on the porch watching the sunset. There was this moment of perfect silence and then he just kissed me. It was a simple kiss, but it made my heart race. That moment kind of changed our relationship from just friends to something more special.

Kissing in 6th grade is not appropriate behavior in most cases. However, some might have innocent stories like a boy accidentally brushing his lips against a girl's cheek during a game of tag and they both got really embarrassed. It was just a clumsy moment that they later laughed about as they grew older.

One funny 6th grade story is when a boy brought his pet frog to school for show - and - tell. But during lunch, the frog escaped and hopped onto someone's sandwich. Everyone was screaming and laughing at the same time.
