Nah don't confuse the kid Douchen, finding a good one isn't 1% chance, far from it, plenty of em around. But finding one that knows what she wants and is upfront about it is another matter. Especially in immature age groups.
Main thing is just taking your time getting to know em, finding common ground (chill phase) and don't revolve your world around them instantly (putting em on pedestal) and indirectly give away all control (I'm guessing Salvo here did that in the full year he was chatting with her getting friend zoned hard and getting mentally whipped) .
Mainly just be able to read the signs (they aren't always up front, even the sweetest and most honest ones), plus seriously just know when to move on when they enter manipulative bitch mode .
This is not related to first (or even second ) crushes, they are always potentially messy, so just relax Salvo and get your emoness on

and learn from it.
