a safe crush
n. An infatuation with a person, in which, flirting and fantasizing of a future with the crush are permissible based on the fact that the object of one's affection is completely unavailable (they are a friend, stranger, taken, etc.), or so you think. In reality, safe crushes only harbor the illusion of being harmless, since 4 out of 5 will reciprocate varying degrees of feelings back complicating the whole damned thing.

Whoa. So true... I'm still a big fan of the "safe crush," but it's true, sometimes you have to work at keeping it "safe." Like, you need to wear a crush condom or something.
