To have an enormous crush on an 80s popstar

[auldspinster]

I'm 41, he's 67(!?!), but i'm obsessed, want to write florid fanmail and am watching you tube clips of him all the time. Talk about undignified .

I don't know whether it's a pre Menopause thing, tbh.

I went through a similar thing and so have most of the Women, who I've confessed to, around your age.

Can't you tell us who it is, so that we can judge you?

Go on, tell us who it is

My bet is David Essex

Buy a poster and sellotape it to your ceiling, get a diary with a lock and write him love letters every night.

You will grow out of it, you know. I did! i was fourteen and it was NOT David Essex, it was someone much, much worse

Toooldtobearsed I thought David Essex too, but when I checked his age I found that he's 68.

Who is it? Can we have a clue? It's not Bryan Ferry as he's 70 now.

Sorry OP, unless you tell us who it is we can't tell if YABU

Oh God. Lionel Richie is 67...

I cannot comment unless you say who it is.

Nooooo, it cannot be Lionel Richie. Op would never admit to that, surely?

Its either Lionel Ritchie or Ted Nugent.

It's John Foxx, original singer of Ultravox so pop star is maybe stretching it although he had a few solo top 40 hits.

Well, he got better as he got older.

Is it as he us now, or as he was then?

Hormones. The answer to everything. You WILL grow out of it eventually😆

Thought 67 was a bit old for an 80s star - more 70s surely.

DH is a fan but he doesn't have a crush on him.

Is this a sudden onset crush? I doubt he's had a soppy fan letter in a while. I say write to him and make his day.

I've had a google. Yes, he's got something about him.

yess...something quite gnomelike about him squoosh

Sorry OP, I'm in the YABU camp!

Go hunt him down on FB.

As he is now. I liked his music for a while ans thought he was gorgeous when he was young but I had a rather erotic dream about him as he is now a couple of weeks ago and it's precipitated this situation.

Ah, John Foxx (real name Dennis!!)

yes, very nice.

Feel the need to sing Underpass now.

Its either Lionel Ritchie or Ted Nugent.

Ted Nugent would probably shoot you if he heard you'd called him "pop".

Meh, he's not my cup of tea but I can hardly judge, seeing as I once had a crush on Des O'Connor after having a rather erotic dream about him.

I don't need to do the signature practicing thing cos his real surname is the same as my given one.

I was going to laugh Iggy and then I remembered my HD sex dream about Terry Wogan.
