Yes
I find it very common. My son is so into his classmate to the point that the teacher had to separate them because all he does is look at her 😅

@Gingerbreadspice I had a crush on a girl named Jaylynn, and Britney when I was five. Wrote her a love letter and everything. Moved before I could give it to them. My mom says I cried all the way to IL, but I don’t remember crying. I remember trying to be tough for my mom, thinking that I didn’t want to move and it must be sad for her to as well, and probably to see me cry. I was also mad, and didn’t want to tell her about the love letter.

@WendyLopez43
1) We're talking about very prepubescent kids. In what way are very little girls "more mature" than very little boys?
2) A lot of teen girls say this, but seem to confuse sexual maturity (ability to make a baby) with actual maturity.
3) Puberty has been turning on earlier in girls because of artificial chemicals which mimic estrogen...so girls get exposed to chemicals which start their sexual maturation earlier. I suspect that this same external influence might delay the onset of male sexual maturity by a small-yet-measurable amount.
I thought it was mostly the girls who crushed early, because of maturing faster.
