Childhood village crushes! They’re random, funny, and oftentimes terribly weird – but we’ve all had them. Despite the fact that you’d rather bury the past and forget, here are 9 day3a crushes you’ve definitely had in Lebanon. 1. The distant-not-so-distant cousin The one who shows up on holidays for family gatherings. You exchanged a few words with their mom, and now you think they’re the love of your life. 2. The neighborhood “bad boy” They once stole their father’s BMW and drove around town blasting Nancy Ajram songs. Your crush only deepened when you saw their newest tattoo that you chose to loudly defend to everyone.
3. The wealthy kid who comes home every summer Do you remember when they would flex their foreign language skills? You imagined leaving your family to go live in France or Michigan because they couldn’t stay away from you. This was your first long-distance relationship (all, of course, in your head).
4. The dekkene owner’s son/daughter YEAH MOM OF COURSE I’LL GO BUY YOU T7EEN IN THE SWELTERING HEAT AT NOON. 5. The married woman next door This was the first sign that you have issues and need therapy.
6. The girl with the long hair Every village has one.
7. The I-really-hate-you crush The classic enemies-to-lovers trope! Your friends used to mockingly ship you both together and you both hated it (or, did you?).
8. The see-them-everywhere crush Then one day they moved. Cue tears.
9. Your brother’s football friends You were out there putting in the effort and never missing a game.
