AIBU to have got myself in a right old lather over David Tennant?

I had a lovely dream about David Tennant the other night and now I can't get him out of my head. I've been googling him, watching him on YouTube and having all sorts of shocking day dreams about him. I have this continual feeling that something exciting is going to happen, and when I pin it down, it's just that he's sort of in the back of my mind all the time. For goodness sake. I'm like a love struck teenager. I'm happily married and 42! Blimey the man is lovely though.

Boak. I hope I never have a nightmare involving that weedy looking minger. He looks like a skeezy junked out cretin begging for change outside a train station, like he needs a scratch and a wash. Boggin'

YABU. Too much nostril for me.

LiviaDruscillaAugusta · 14/08/2014 16:10

To be fair, he is very very sexy!

expatinscotland · 14/08/2014 16:11

A rotting fish covered in maggots is far sexier.

Are we talking about the same man here? I'm confused. How could you possibly say such dreadful things about lovely lovely David! Shock Grin

He was the only reason I used to watch Dr Who with Dp!

My eyes! My eyes!

expat is it something to do with him being scottish? Your name suggests some sort of link. Maybe you don't like his accent? It can't possibly anything to do with the way he looks as he's just so YUMMY.

Anyway, the fewer of you who agree with me, statistically the more chance he'll end up with me Grin

YANBU, I regularly have crushes on famous people (I'm also 42) although mine are usually inappropriately younger Blush

I didn't understand the David Tennant fascination, I know lots of people who are nuts about him, until I saw him interviewed on tv, its his eyes, IMO, very dark & mesmerizing.

burgatroyd · 14/08/2014 16:17

You are making me think of his willay!

Off to stick toothbrush in ears for a good scrub

Ah browneyedgirl I watched his final scene with Billie Piper the other day, and cried. Yup, that's how bad it's got.

What am I going to do?

I prefer Matt Bomer. Grin

He does nothing for me. Too skinny.

EugeneKrabs · 14/08/2014 16:18

And matt (lady)boner looks like a brunette Ken doll.

Namechangearoonie123 · 14/08/2014 16:19

He doesn't do it for me but yes, mad crushes where you suddenly fancy a celebrity are perfectly normal Smile

If I spend too long on one, you know giving up hours every day to think of Gabriel Byrne then I know I need to get a grip and inject a bit of excitement into my life.

farewellfigure · 14/08/2014 16:19

His mum said (in another youtube clip) that he has boggle eyes. He does I suppose. Maybe I have a thing about boggle eyes as my dh does too a bit. And a very big nose. Maybe that's just the type I go for.

David Tennant!

PoirotsMoustache · 14/08/2014 16:20

ADHDNoodles I was so upset when I found out he's gay Sad

farewellfigure I know exactly what you mean - I occasionally have the same thing happen to me. The most embarrassing one was when the object of my 'affections' was my boss... Blush

farewellfigure · 14/08/2014 16:20

I like skinny men. I can't stand muscles. Ah well, if it's perfectly normal then I won't worry, and just go back to watching youtube clips.

Gabriel Byrne, now you're talking namechange

ZoeWannaBaker · 14/08/2014 16:21

I don't get the attraction either, him or the cumberbatch kid.

Still, it would be dull if we all lusted after the same type wouldn't it?

farewellfigure · 14/08/2014 16:22

Oh poirots that's awful. I had a similar crush on a colleague once, but when I found out it was reciprocated I had to back off majorly before anything dreadful happened. I don't think I'd be able to back off if David shared my feelings!

Mmmm now Benedict is another lovely specimen but I don't have the same crazed stalkerish feelings towards him at the moment. I did watch 'that kiss' from Sherlock twenty a few times though.
