Sudden inexplicable obsession

I have suddenly been obsessing about Oasis and Liam Gallagher in particular. Been going on for a week now. I can't stop listening to their music as if I am hearing it for the first time. I have been following Liam on Twitter and scouring the internet for photographs and nuggets of information about a possible reunion of the band. I was a fairly moderate fan at the time and kind of thought he was sexy back in the day but was well aware of what a complete tool he was/is as well so why this, why now? It's utter fantasy all this, I'm ashamed of myself. I can't seem to stop fantasising about what he would be like in bed and how he might seduce me, what his house is like, what his girlfriend is like. Pathetic. It's totally preoccupying my daily routine at the moment, all I want to do is play Oasis at top volume, bring it up in conversation wherever possible and endlessly stare at photos of Liam looking moody and gorgeous. I'm embarrassed to admit it, I wouldn't tell anyone I know about this. I am not an obsessive type normally. I don't have time for this kind of thing, I am a busy middle aged mother. Is this a midlife crisis? I am happily married, with a very busy job and social life. I love and still fancy my husband, we have a good sex life. I don't want for much. What the hell is happening to me? AIBU to be neglecting my kids' homework for a late-stage obsession about a 90s rock n roll star?! Please tell me this will all be over soon!

I hear you OP. I am currently at the end of week one of a massive obsession with an actor in a TV show I'm watching. DH was working away last week...I put the DCs to bed and sat until the early hours watching him on YouTube. Last night I got slightly tipsy and tweeted him, I feel like I'm loosing my mind. On the one hand it's a nice feeling on the other it's a bit weird. He's the same age as me, quite short and odd looking but I would run over my mum to get to him Shock Wink

It's Rami Malek from Mr Robot btw.

I understand OP. Recently, I have had crush after crush (all on 80s pop stars) I have just started one on Roland Orzabal Grin Have no idea where they are all coming from..

Actually I do know. That was when I was growing up, it feels like home. I need to escape to a time before all the things I am dealing with now had happened

LoveMySituation · 08/10/2016 15:18

Seem to need to, rather

LoveMySituation · 08/10/2016 15:19
