If your crush rejected you, it's possible you were more attracted to their appearance than their personality. Whatever the circumstances of your rejection were, now would be a good time to be honest with yourself and determine what you want from an ideal partner. Think about traits you would want from an ideal partner. Perhaps you want someone who is warm and caring, or maybe trustworthiness is more important to you. Shared interests or worldview is also a common trait people seek in a partner. Whatever it is that you think you want from a partner, figure it out before you start having feelings for anyone else. While ideal partner preferences shape the type of person you actively seek out, you also have an unspoken emotional reaction to most people you meet. Sometimes we're blinded by our emotional reaction to someone because of their looks or charming personality, but it's important to learn to recognize the emotional reaction you feel in someone's presence. Emotional reactions are typically unconscious, and you can't change that reaction. But as you analyze your emotions over time (perhaps through journaling), you can learn to recognize the emotional reaction that you have to a person. Even if someone has traits that you find ideal and you have a positive emotional reaction to that person, you may simply not be a good match when it comes to longterm compatibility. Learning how to evaluate a crush for real, meaningful compatibility can be the difference between frustrating relationship problems and a meaningful, fulfilling partnership. Think about the personality traits you find most desirable. Do you have a "type"? Does that type typically work well with you? Or are you only seeing the surface of people you have a crush on? Trust your gut. If you find someone attractive but don't have much in common with them, it probably won't work out, and you probably already know this. Learn to trust your gut as you evaluate potential partners, as this will help you avoid getting hurt and rejected in the future.
