As we age, it's natural for our perspective on relationships and attraction to shift. The way we view love and crushes in our younger years is often very different from how we approach them later in life. There are a variety of reasons why we develop fewer crushes as we age, including changes in our priorities, experiences, and mindset. One of the main reasons why we develop fewer crushes as we age is because our priorities and focus shift. In our younger years, we may be more focused on exploring new relationships and experiencing new things. We may be more easily swept up in the excitement and passion of a new crush, as we are more open to the possibilities that come with a romantic connection.
