I think a lot of people experience that feeling but don’t label it as a crush. I think people with OCD look at it through a bad lense

I had that experience once i thought my cousin looked cute because she had a cute outfit my ocd was trying to tell me i had a crush on her which is ridiculous but thats what i thought for a second than the thought went away

No there’s nothing wrong with that. You were just testing

Did u ever have something like this happen to you. I just think its a type of reasurance it sure did seem like reassurance because after i did the physical compulsio the previous thought went away

I think I have emotional crush on kids, especially when they just get a new haircut and looks handsome, not sexually attracted tho, and I do not do anything bad to them I guess. All kids from both genders I just tickle them and play games with them and say that they are cute and complement their hair and clothes and feel some emotional crush sometimes but it is not like continuos heart bumping and blushing and all of that I do have such crushed on every good handsome looking character sometimes even if it was an anime (this was a few years ago when I was a teenager) so idk if it is relatable to what you feel My experience may not be normal for other people but I would say that it is normal for me as long as it is not strong or sexual so I hope that I am relatable to you?

Did you ever have reassurance like for me i thought i touched my brothers side in the wrong way when i was just holding him than i felt the need to do reassurance when i got home the need to touch is stomach for the anxiety to stop and to prove to my self i am not a pedo. For some reason if i did it again i wojld magically stop thinking about it. My later guess is that it was just reassurance instead of telling ur self u didnt do anything wrong and stuff i would act out the incident 2 sometimes. So i touched his stomache that had to touch his stomach again for reassurance i went up to him and slapped his stomach or hugged his stomach and asked him what are u guys upp too,is that normal?

Sometimes I think " do I like kids?" "Would i get aroused if I saw content with kids?""What if I'm a pedo and cant accept it?" "What if I'm ok with these thoughts?" "What if I'm not distressed enough " "What if I enjoy these thoughts?" , i avoid kids as much as i can, i cant look at them bc I'm scared I'm gonna have some groin like response. I keep testing if I'd get turned on or if I'd have some groinal response to sexual scenarios with kids. Sometimes I think that if I took my life this would be over and i wouldn't have to think about this and i wish i doubted something else instead of things like this. I had similar situations just with different topics such as if i loved or found sexually appealing a guy while in a relationship and i kept asking myself those questions for months and i avoided going to school for weeks and when I went I'd cry and have anxiety attacks. I had it with past actions i obessed over and felt the need to exploit every detail and be honest because otherwise i was being a fraud. I had it for sexual things that happened when i was a child. Im not diagnosed with ocd but should i tell this to my local counselor? Can someone help? Give me advice or tell me anything?

So I identify as a lesbian and I am in a committed relationship with a wonderful girl. But i’m stressing that I have crushes on boys I go to school with. I get anxious around them, which I think I mistake for excitement. I obsess over it in my head which confuses me a lot. Idk I also never think about them sexually or romantically but I think about them often which is scaring me. Any advice?

Why are things so real the first time they’re in my mind and then when I think about it later it’s easier for me to be like wtf?? I was watching a movie earlier and the young girl had developed more in the chest area than the last movie and I felt the desire to check her out so I did. Then later I let myself imagine her having sex and I liked it. But now looking back I’m like ew. The boys in the movie have also developed as the movie went on and I couldn’t help but think that in their real life they’ve probably woken up to boners and s*men and stuff. And looking back it’s just ugh. Idk if it’s sexual relevance but I genuinely let myself indulge in these thoughts and groinal responses and I remember thinking to myself I don’t want to be attracted to little kids and how do I stop myself (everyone has attractive qualities so in younger boys I see man like qualities). Idk I need help. I wouldn’t type this out if I truly believe I was messed up but I’m still scared
