Who do you hate yourself for fancying?

I am listening to the various covers of Time after Time (after watching hearing it on an advert), and found a Ronan Keating version.

I remember being so disappointed in him having an affair with a backing dancer back in the day, and though so much less of him because of it.

Listening to his version of Time after Time just fluttered something in my stomach awakening an old crush I had in my teenage years. He was beautiful and I loved his voice (but he did a fucking selfish thing which pissed me off massively at the time).

Yes!

Giuseppe from bake off is totally acceptable also I would put in that bracket Dan from strictly
I hate myself for finding totally obvious but uninspiring blokes who are probably as deep as a puddle like mark wright attractive but it does tend to be when I'm ovulating so I think it's hormonal!

@Palavah

Don Draper.

Raab is exactly the sort of tosser I'd have fancied in my 20s. I think I've escaped now, though.

Can't imagine Will Self being any good in bed. He is a tosser by all accounts.

I lust for Don Draper.

Ryan Giggs, he was my fit older man crush and I remember being really annoyed he’d cheated.

Longingforatikihut · 16/11/2021 22:43

My colleague. They're amazing. A million miles out of my league. I'd only bring them down. But I have the hugest crush.

David Cameron

MeatyRvita · 16/11/2021 22:44

Stellan Skaarsgard and Greg Davies
Both fine choices for someone older than me I’m sure but I’ve been told it’s weird as I’m in my 20’s and they’re old enough to be my dad - but there is something so bloody sexy about them!

Beesneeze82 · 16/11/2021 22:45

Aitch.
I'm a 39 year old mother of two but for some reason the accent and his rapping style does it for me.

TheShriekingShack · 16/11/2021 22:45

What’s wrong with Greg Davies?! He’s funny! And not an arse... afaik?

Paul Hollywood
Emmanuel Macron

KosherDill · 16/11/2021 22:46

Adam Ant, back in the day.

Sometimes David Suchet (non Poirot.)

Actor who plays Alistair on ATGB. He seems kind.

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 16/11/2021 22:46

David Cameron-I think he would be utter filth in bed 😳😳😳

CeeCeeDeeBee · 16/11/2021 22:47

Another vote for Don Draper

Also my friend’s husband. He’s a dick but really hot.

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 16/11/2021 22:47

And Paul Hollywood-clear I have a type 😩

augustusglupe · 16/11/2021 22:47

I fancied Richard Fairbrass too BleuJay Grin
Iamanicepersonreally Yes I totally get the Bob Mortimer attraction! He seems kind, hilarious and nice looking but totally unaware of it.

DriftingBlue · 16/11/2021 22:50

Harry Styles

My crush was perfectly fine for a couple of years, until one day I realized he looks a bit like a young version of my XH.

DukeofEarlGrey · 16/11/2021 22:50

I have a catalogue of shame myself, but... Matt Hancock?! Can't believe how many times his name has been mentioned!

WinoAnon · 16/11/2021 22:56

Bob Mortimer. Only embarrassing as he reminds me of my uncle and when I remember that I want to die inside.

Seriously how could anyone fancy David Cameron after piggate?

Forgothowmuchlhatehomeschoolin · 16/11/2021 23:01

@SomewhereEast

Rishi Sunak. I am very much not a Tory, but damnit, he is delish.

Me too...dishy Rishi! Always listen to news when he is on and text my best mate cos she likes him too!

Artichokepiglet · 16/11/2021 23:02

Matt Hancock.

PearlSlaghoople · 16/11/2021 23:03

I will fight you in the car park for the right to be first in the queue with John Bishop… it’s the hair, I think…
Also Micky Flanagan - but that’s waning a bit now as DP is from same area of London and talks just like MF.

Jack Grealish - only the once, just to see what he’d be like… (filth🤞)
The late legend that was Rick Parfitt - he was beautiful in his younger years - and some of his sweat dripped on me during a Status Quo concert..😛

I must have a hair fetish…🤔

TokyoSushi · 16/11/2021 23:06

Oh also Gary Lineker and Toto Wolff from F1, much less shameful, although quite a lot older than me!

coffeeschmoffee · 16/11/2021 23:09

Matt Hancock here too Blush

TwinklyBranch · 16/11/2021 23:10

A colleague who's really annoying. Blush

xxyzz · 16/11/2021 23:13

Ew. You are all weird (especially the Matt Hancock and George Osborne fanciers - how could you??).

Apart from the George Harrison fancier, who is just normal, as he was seriously hot back in the day.
