Oh dear, AFAICR girls that age had like 2 – 3 of crushes per year. Boys attempted to hide this more, but it must have been 1 – 2 / year on average, at least.

But: I’m aro, and really completely, totally clueless (back then and still now) and probably only recognized the obvious ones. So maybe I underestimate it. Personally I never crushed on anyone.

The drama started in early teens or earlier, like 12 or 13 years old when they started to crush.

Totally useless at this.

From my vague memory of school the lads around me seemed outside of relationships seemed to ask maybe 3 or 4 people out a year. Obviously I don't know what they were feeling but I wouldn't be surprised if the number of 'crushes' was something similar. like, less than 10 but probably more than 1 a year.

honestly from what I've seen (as a 14 year old) the average number can range from 2-30

My younger sister (13) is straight and has had 2 crushes (3 if you count Timothée Chalamet) since last year in September. She had a crush on Draco Malfoy when she was like 10 or 11 I think, it was her first crush I think.

I rarely paid attention but I think it usually goes from one or two every few years to all the time. That’s in the teenage years. From what I can tell people tend to Plato when their older. Finding someone to love so they might not even mention their crushes anymore. I think people usually are sexually attracted way more often but maybe that’s just me.
