I'm sure plenty of people have had crushes lasting long periods of time, especially if unrequited. I know I have, although my longest lasting ones wouldn't exactly be secret, such as celebrity crushes. But yeah sure I've harbored secret attractions towards people I have met or known, with them never the wiser.

Thank you, I see about people having secret crushes. My friend thinks he's got a crush but he hasn't seen the person in in a long time. He's also afraid of talking to crushes if they call the police on him. You have any suggestions?

Why would someone call the police for talking to them?

Well I'd like to know how just talking to someone could get a body arrested, unless they were unduly persistent, but I'll take your word for it. All I know is nothing ventured, nothing gained.
How old are we talking about? I hear it's pretty rough on Gen Z. My generation had it a lot easier we weren't worried about being 'offensive' or being accused of anything and everything. I read it's really hard out there these days.

Thank you, my friend mentioned ages like 20 to 30, and it seems to be rough. That is good to hear your generation was easier.
