Is it normal to have a crush on yourself?

Unusual.Less common, but harmless

It’s less common to call it a crush on yourself, but enjoying your own looks or feeling charmed by your personality is harmless. It can simply be confidence, self-appreciation, or a playful way of describing how much you like yourself.

People sometimes feel genuinely fascinated by their own appearance, personality, or the way they come across. You might enjoy looking at yourself, think you’d be your own type, or joke that you have a crush on yourself. That doesn’t automatically mean anything is wrong—it can just be self-appreciation with a flirty label.

People may find the phrase unusual, but most will understand it as confidence or humor. If the feeling starts taking over your life or making it hard to connect with other people, that’s worth reflecting on; otherwise, you’re allowed to enjoy your own company.
