YABU - he is cheesy! Hmm

WorraLiberty · 08/10/2012 00:23

Oh I know YANBU

But yet why does it make me shiver that a grown man makes a young child shiver?

I don't know...I guess I have to deal with that one myself Grin

WorraLiberty · 08/10/2012 00:24

Aww bless. I remember thinking Mikey from the goonies was rather hot...

GothAnneGeddes · 08/10/2012 03:08

At around that age, I first laid eyes on Morten Harket in the Take On Me video and I wanted to be the girl in the video more then I wanted Christmas. Smile

O.P YANBU.

[[http://www.google.com.my/imgres?q=dave+benson+phillips&hl=en&client=safari&sa=X&rls=en&biw=1280&bih=590& he was DDs first crush. She was about three IIRC.

ripsishere · 08/10/2012 03:19

sorry.
To my eternal shame, I even looked into flying him out to wherever we were living for her birthday.
I realised I had better things to spend 25K pounds on.

quirrelquarrel · 08/10/2012 06:06

First real crush- girl in the playground at nursery (in pictures I'm staring right at her, ha). Then girl next door who had beautiful cushions in her room (I stuffed one up my top to take home once Shock). Then woman with problems and wonky teeth, scary blue eyeshadow who sang way out of tune at church.

I guess my first normal crush was the boy in Les Choristes. The boy with the "face of an angel".

That is a beautiful man in your OP, though Grin

FelixDaSouza · 08/10/2012 06:49

I think he's a lovely crush to have!

Bunny My first crush was also Russ Abbott! I have finally found someone else who shared my crush. Grin

I've been slagged off about that one for years!

FolkGhoul · 08/10/2012 06:51

I might need to have it explained to me, but I don't get the pride bit Confused.

My first crush was Shaggy from the 1960s Scooby Doo cartoon.

ihavenonameonhere · 08/10/2012 07:03

Mine was Andy Crane from CBBC - oh the shame!!

RobinSparkles · 08/10/2012 07:20

DD1 (aged 5) declared that Chris Martin, from Coldplay, could be her boyfriend the other day. The Coldplay feat Rihanna video was on, I forget what the song is called.

I was like OFGS DD he's so boring!

ithinkimightbegoingmad · 08/10/2012 10:13

folk re the pride..I am hoping it is not my dds greatest acheivement Grin

but happy that she has good eyesight and taste!

and that the character he played in Honey is caring and respectful, hard working, principled etc

robin Grin he is dull, but it could be a lot worse than 'boring'

Dd's first crush is Tom Daley. She's 8 and recorded him on her camera off the telly so she could watch him again.

He has a good body I suppose. Grin

missymoomoomee · 08/10/2012 10:50

My 1st crush was Adam Ant, closely followed by Shakin Stevens, I thought that was bad enough but Russ Abbot ......Grin

peeriebear · 08/10/2012 10:54

Mine were Indiana Jones and He-Man!

TheOneWithTheHair · 08/10/2012 10:55
