OH EVANA!! I am queen of yearning and it feels like my entire brain is consumed by this idea of romance nearly to the point of debilitation... If I don't have a crush, I can't focus or work and if I can't focus or work, I should have a crush to occupy my spare time - a deathly trap to be in. BUT, as you said, in the alone, quiet moments you can feel the most romance <3
