From Basil to “Be My Husband”: A Crush Timeline That Makes Absolutely No Sense (Until It Does)

by

in

Let me take you on a journey.
Not just any journey… my crush timeline.
A chaotic, confusing, slightly unhinged, but ultimately iconic character development arc.


🦊 Act 1: The Basil Era (aka… what even was that?)
We start strong.
Young me, feeling BIG emotions and having absolutely no idea what to do with them.
Was it a crush? Was it comfort? Was it fascination?
Answer: yes.

No one explains this stage to you. You just sit there like:
“Why do I feel weird about a fox???”


💿 Act 2: The “OH I LIKE BOYS??” Awakening
Enter: Shayne Ward.
My first human crush.
Cue the internal moment of:
“Wait… I’m normal. This is normal. I’m fine.” 😭

Shortly followed by full-blown boyband chaos.


🎤 Act 3: Obsession Era™
Avenue.
Specifically Scott.
Specifically me going feral over a signed photo.

This was not a casual phase.
This was dedication. Commitment. Emotional investment.

Meanwhile, real-life crush (hi Callum) was out here saying:
“Hannah Montana? My little sister likes her.”

…sir, you will never recover from that.


🎒 Act 4: The Random College Guy (???)
Ah yes.
The most mysterious entry.

  • No storyline
  • No interaction
  • No development
  • No reason

Just vibes.

Me: “I think I like him??”
Also me now: “Why did I like him??”

We may never know.


🌧️ Act 5: The Complicated Chapter
The bit where feelings, connection, and identity all blur together.
Not simple crushes anymore—more like trying to understand where you fit, who you are, and what connection actually means.

Messy. Important. Necessary.


💍 Final Act: The Myron Era (aka: oh THIS is what it’s meant to feel like)
And then… plot twist.

It’s not confusing.
It’s not one-sided.
It’s not built on vibes and imagination.

It’s real.
It’s calm.
It’s chosen.

He knows who Avenue are (because of me, obviously).
He’s been to see JLS with me FOUR TIMES (elite behaviour).
And somehow, after all that chaos, I ended up here.


✨ The Conclusion
Looking back, none of it makes sense individually.

But together?

It’s a perfect timeline of:

  • figuring things out
  • feeling deeply
  • learning what I don’t want
  • and eventually recognising what I do

From
“why do I feel like this about a fox?”

to
💍 “this is my person.”


Honestly?

10/10 character development.
Would watch again.
