Retcrush

An instance of what you now realize would’ve been a crush, had the circumstances been right; a situation where, if you date someone else you knew at the same time, you can honestly say it wasn’t a crush, but if you date them, you can honestly say it was, whether your honesty is you being correct or deluded; the Retcon of crushes.
Since the breakup with X, I’m totally retcrushing on Y. Wish I knew her number!

recrush

noun or verb (ree-krush)

The action or process of having a crush on someone again after getting over them the first time. It can happen days or years after the initial crush.
It is not considered a recrush if the person has had a continual crush for the duration of time, there must be evidence of uncrushing.
Example 1:
"Shoot, I was totally over him and then he called me last night I totally recrushed."

Example 2:
Girl 1: "Why do you keep talking about Vince, I thought you were over him?"
Girl 2: "Something changed when he wore that Cosby sweater the other day and now he's my recrush."
