Hi,
I am familiar with the phrase "can't hold a candle to someone" ,
but not sure, what it means if you do hold a candle for someone.
Could you please explain to me what it means in the following
context?
A man says to a woman:
"I did have a tiny crush on you once.
I might have held a little bit of a candle for you."
Thank you in advance!
Kind regards
Pepita
