Arrrrgggg, in the midst of a celebrity crush that won't die.

[LucilleBluth]

I'm in love with the lovely Mr Jake Gyllenhaal. I can't shake it. I may have joined this Facebook fan page (cos I'm really sad......and older than most of the other members). I may have also clocked up a good few hours on YouTube and Google images.

Does anyone else do this, indulge me!

I had the biggest crush last year on the most random country singer, I went to see him on the day I got offered my place for a nursing course that I had been trying to get for years and I think the emotions got a bit mixed up, I spent hours listening to music, podcasts, following on twitter (the only reason I joined twitter), I went to see him 3 times and he occupied far too many of my thoughts. A couple of weeks ago he was back in the uk playing in a oub near me and I couldn;t be bothered to go so it did pass thank goodness, it was so intense though.

When I hit the menopause I developed an overwhelming crush on.....Gene Kelly. Don't laugh! I drooled over him,found most of his films cheap on Amazon,I was like a woman possessed. YANBU op!

[Bullshitbingo]

Watch his recent film 'night crawler' that will cure you. He is seriously creepy in it. And I say this as someone who had a JG crush a few years ago. It passed....

[Crosbybeach]

My Cumberbatch obsession lasted precisely a year. Totally over now, Hamlet tickets anyone?

It'll pass.

[Florabeebaby]

Yep, Mr Hawaii Five-0 Lead Actor. No words. My crush is ridiculous. DH thinks it's hilarious....

[CatMilkMan]

He was brilliant on the thing he did with bear grylls watching it gave me a lot of respect for him.

[LucilleBluth]

I bought Nightcrawler, I chucked it the shopping trolley in Sainsbury's and told DH that I'd found us a good film for Saturday night we watched it last night.

It's mad isn't it, it's consuming my every waking thought atm, I'm very glad to hear that's it's not just me.

I don't get the Cumberbatch love at all, much rather have Gene Kelly or random country bloke ;).......but we can't help who we love!

[LucilleBluth]

CatMilkMan I have watched that many times over the last two weeks.

[MamaLazarou]

Will my pointing out his resemblance to Guy Smiley help cure you?

[LucilleBluth]

You see Guy Smiley, I see this....:)

[EponasWildDaughter]

at Guy Smiley.

Just googled JG on images. Load of pictures. He's ok. His eyes are really expressionless though aren't they?

[TinyManticore]

He has the cold dead eyes of a killer.

[MamaLazarou]

Those look like the same photo to me, OP.

[MamaLazarou]

Oh hang on, no, he's got a beard in the second one, sorry.

[WhirlpoolGalaxyM51]

This happened to me last year. It was ridiculous. I have no idea why. It was just like being a teen again, really intense! I felt too embarrassed and silly to look him up all over the internet which is sad really, why couldn't I allow myself some indulgence?! Anyway it's calmed down a lot but still not gone.

[LiviaDrusillaAugusta]

It's okay - I have a complete and all consuming crush on Peter Capaldi and spend far too much time on YouTube watching him and also on FB where I have found many like minded souls!

[bendybrickpumpkinpatch]

I've just finished all 5 seasons of breaking bad in a month. Dh and I binge watched them all. I am now like a love sick teenager over Aaron Paul. I literally can't stop thinking about him. It's like I've experienced a break up! Ive done the same watching hours of interviews on YouTube and googling. I'm 40 years old! !!! I know it's ridiculous.
I'm hoping it will pass! !!

[Sternin]

I'm obsessed with an actor that I don't even fancy! I just like to look at him.

Oh, and YANBU for JG, by the way.

[GingerFoxInAT0phat]

I've had a little stalk of max irons after watching the riot club, my little obsessions seem to be getting younger

I also had many evenings in my imaganation land with Liam Hemsworth and have watched a shitty film with him in it a few times too many.

I clearly need a grip!

JG is definitely a worthy crush though imo

[GeorgeYeatsAutomaticWriter]

JG is fond of a beard, isn't he?

[kungfupannda]

I had an all-encompassing Nathan Fillion crush a few months ago. I am just about over it. As long as I actively avoid anything with him in it, in order to avoid a relapse

[RachelRagged]

Florabeebaby do you mean the original Hawaii 5 O ?

Lead actor was Jack Lord and the teenage Me (in 70s) thought Phorrr Was well shocked to learn he was over 60 odd in that , lol . . Certainly did not look it .

Other crushes.
Benedict Taylor (OMG he was my very first teen crush , ,a series by name of Barriers pointed him out)

The fella who played the first Travis in long ago Blakes Seven .

And once I had a HUGE thing for Oliver Tobias.

All passed now , long ago

[HemanOrSheRa]

bendy I was like that over Aaron Paul after spending a weekend watching Breaking Bad. Those baby blue eyes . It did pass, sort of.

My everlasting crush is Matthew McConaughey. I could watch A Time To Kill on a loop. And I endured True Detective, even though I didn't really have a clue what was going on , just so I could see him.

[TakemedowntoPotatoCity]

Ryan Gosling was mine a while back

I wanted to be the Carey Mulligan character in Drive.

Passed now, I can't even be bothered to search out the film he directed.

[tobee]

I get these all the time. One half of me is saying it's just harmless fun in my dull life. The other half is tut tutting and shaking its head.

My most tragic was listening to Peter Firth reading The Regeneration Trilogy on audible. I realised I had totally fallen in love with the lead character Dr Rivers. So a fictionalised version of a real man. Long dead. Also gay. Read in an audio book. By a different person. Who I don't have a crush on.
