My crushing days are over. 

Or, maybe I just got all my crushing out of my system. I’ve been in love with the same boy for seven years. Will I ever crush again? 

 This is a chronology of all the boys I “loved” between 1996 and 2003. I wanted to make an archive before I forgot about this totally imagined and one-sided part of my adolescent romantic life. These are all recent photographs. They’ve become the boys they’re going to be.
