Weve all had themsome of us since kindergarten. Realizing the boy or girl across the room gave you the belly flutters. Dreaming of marrying them and doodling their name on your notebook. Then, as we get older, our thoughts turn well, into adult thoughts. An actor or singer or maybe the UPS manhey, no judgment heresuddenly appears in your dreams and you wake up with the warm and tinglies. Boom, youve got a crush.

So whos on your list? Brad Pitt? Tyson Beckford? Maybe youre into the older crowd. Bernie Sanders? (Universal healthcare is hot.) Meryl Streep? Or how about someone young and trendy who will make you forget youre a mom wiping shit off the rug? Someone like Harry Styles? Or Zendaya?

Whoever it is, we say crush on. Have those fantasies, dream those dreams, and let your mind go to a happy place, far away from the grueling day to life that is mothering during a pandemic. Even if that happy place means youre in bed with Ironman on side of you and Black Widow on the other. Superheroes are sexywe get it.

Sometimes our crushes make us feel nostalgic and long for our youth. Sometimes they make us realize were turned on by face tattoos. Crushes are like that.

Crushes sometimes make us learn new things about ourselveslike that were turned on by cavemen. Or that feminism is really sexy. Or that we really just want a dirty, fur-covered King in the North to bend us over the kitchen sink.

We may not see them coming. Were just binge-ing the latest hit show on Netflix, pouring our second glass of wine, taking that big long the kids are finally asleep breath, and boom. The Mandalorian suddenly has us thinking dirty thoughts.

Weve got crushes on Kylo-Ren. Weve got crushes on people who try to take down our slimy president. And weve got crushes on pretty much the entire GOT cast. Theres a lot of fish in the sea, friends. A hottie for everyone!

And theres a spectrum on crushes, isnt there? From Oh, that person is attractive to I want to fuck your brains out. Kind of like zero to 100.

Crush dreams are the best dreams, arent they? Until your 3-year-old wakes you up at 5:45 a.m. asking for a cookie and telling you they peed the bed. But until then, dreaming of Dracula sex might be the highlight of your week.

Celebrity crushes are our favorite kind because theyre usually pretty innocent and serve as the perfect mental escape from the shit-storm that is our lifeespecially this year. Who knows? Maybe Idris Elba will ring my doorbell, clean my house, homeschool my kids, and then lead me to bed. A girl can dream.
