5 years old. His name was Harry.

I must have been around seven. When I lived in Rio de Janeiro, there was this beautifully serene soul, whose name I think was Julia. She was 12 and lived with either her grandmother or aunt, I can't remember which, and she was beautiful. In retrospect, she very much was for me the song Girl From Ipanema, the Gilberto/Getz version. If you've never heard that version, I recommend it.

Anyway, Julia from Rio was my first crush. Also, while I was in Rio, there was a girl in kindergarten who I think was named Marlena who was nuts about me. Thinking back, she now reminds me of a very cute Fran Drescher without the totally nasal manner of speaking.

Wow. I wish I was as self aware as I am now back then. Rio in '73 was really cool. There were only three sore spots for me back then: Feeling like an outsider for not knowing anything about soccer, Nelson - who was the bully of the apartment building (he was pure wind, no substance at all), and this one blond kid in reading school who didn't like me because I came from America but lost all credibility as a bullying force when he shat himself in class. Beyond that, Rio was cool as shit!

About five or six (I was already at elementary school).
And I still can remember the guy's name too!

So nice to see that the ljtoys tracking image stuck to your question of the day isn't loading.

I was seven Chris was eight...we were best friends. We were together for a really long time, and are still close friends. Elementary school sweethearts lol.

I had my first crush in kindergarten, so I was probably about 5 years old.

Though I didn't start having sexual attraction 'til about 13 or 14.

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

My first crush was in Kindergarten, so I was 4.... His name was Kenyon Curtis.

[avis-noctis.livejournal.com]

14, I think.

[dishapeaches.livejournal.com]

Attracted with no sexual feelings - in fourth grade. A sixth-grade boy had a major crush on me and his best friend took every opportunity to tell me this and embarass the boy to no end.

Attracted with sexual feelings - eighth grade. Out of the blue I developed a crush on a boy that I had known since third grade. That's when I pretty much discovered orgasm.

Well, I had what you might call a "childhood sweetheart" from the age of 4 until 12. But it was mainly adults projecting - he and I were simply best friends but our families were already picking out wedding venues. Drove him to the High School "Ho" and me to Vodka.
Really pushed us apart in the end - we still write occasionally, but we aren't really part of each other's lives any more.

Honest attraction? 12. Marc and I had met a year earlier and become good friends - I was a very old 11 and he was a very young 26. By the time a year had passed we were far closer than anyone realised. By the time I hit 16, I was in love. The feelings have never changed...just the realisation that God had two very different paths for us.

I was 5, his name was Anthony Clark...he had deep soulful eyes, wore a thin gold chain with a cross around his neck. We would hold hands and giggle at each other.

His best friend Joshua...well Joshua liked me... he liked me so much that he stabbed my hand with his pencil, so hard that the lead tip broke off and my hand gushed blood.

Good times in kindergarten.

I was 10, she was the 17 year old niece of my homeroom teacher. She taught the choreography for our 5th grade version of the nutcracker prince; I was the rat king.

18 days... if I remember right.

[the-ravyn.livejournal.com]

I was 12 and he was a 19 year old sailor named Mark.  He was the nephew of my mother's friend and his ship was in port for about a month where we lived.  He was tall, dark hair, big brown eyes and a smile that went on forever.  He never knew how I felt (not that he would admit anyway), but I do recall making a silly fool of myself a couple of times in his presence, AHAHAHAHAHA!

[delphaicdragon.livejournal.com]

Attracted emotionally and mentally? 6.

Attracted sexually? 11.

[uawildcatgrl.livejournal.com]

I had a boyfriend when I was 3...but I'm not sure that counts! My first crush I think was around 9 (that I remember anyway!)

[amanda.livejournal.com]

I was...5 or 6. His name was David Brown, and he was the boy next door. I finally got to snog him about 10 years later....

The power of voodoo.

I had no idea what was going on, but in second grade, I saw those spandex tights on David Bowie in Labyrinth, and I've never been the same.

[katamphigorical.livejournal.com]

We were in kindergarten. His name was Alex.

I particularly found his glasses cute.

We were never meant to be.

11

At first I read this as attached, and I was going to say I was 3 years old and it was my mom.

My first kiss was Shawn L. when I was five.
My first crush? Fifth grade, Dennis - the first of only two boys I ever liked with blonde hair. :)

[mishi-ragdoll.livejournal.com]

XDXDXD i was 8 in the third grade, and the boy i liked had a weird name, i think his name was Kahailo or something lol

[childeofloki.livejournal.com]

Eight.

[eternalxwhisper.livejournal.com]

I think I was about eight. It wasn't sexually, just "Hey! I like boys!" and sexually it must have been about 12.
