AIBU to want a secret confessions thread?

I'll start.

I am stupidly in luuuuuuuurrrvvvvvveeee with a man from work almost 10 years younger than me. He's so lovely, and funny and clever and handsome and I just want to lick him. We get on so well. He'd probably die of shame if he realised and on occasion I feel like I'm old enough to be his mum even though clearly I'm not lol.

But gahhhh, I get the fanny gallops....

NOONE CAN KNOW! I can do nothing about this. No telling on me!

Spill your secrets people!

I think teenage is on hols with kids, which is why we've temporarily shifted focus to chunk Grin

I agree, I think you should call or email him separately from the work stuff about the personal issues, and do it before the work call. Maybe just be honest and say you feel chemistry with him and eant to get it resolved.

HanShootsFirst · 19/04/2017 21:45

*want

Chunkychocfest · 19/04/2017 21:46

Yes I feel like I'm manning the fort with a brief interlude Grin

That's not a bad plan Han but also wiped the smile off my face as that will have to happen, like very soon, and I'm not sure (with my diary utterly chocka) there's time! Shock

HanShootsFirst · 19/04/2017 22:10

Now you're just making excuses chunk - hoik up the big girl pants and get it done! There will never be a perfect time so stop waiting for one!

(And lots of other cliches...you get the idea!) Grin

Bit late but, DoubleNegative - would the Byron Lee who works for the HK Development Council in NY fit the bill? The photo's a bit small though, so can't see if he looks similar to the 'wrong' BL someone posted further up-thread.

- Hong Kong Development Council

Double negative panda

I'm assuming you tried this?

Chunk-Just go for it! Say something to him...what's the actual worst that can happen?

Charlie97 · 20/04/2017 07:37

My sister entered a competition years ago (can't remember what for!) it needed a stamped addressed envelope put in with the entry (this also needed a stamp on it!). I got them round the wrong way, put the envelope addressed to the competition inside the SAE.

I realised the next day when the envelope was received through the post. I tore it up, flushed it down the loo.

I never confessed!

TeenageCentaurMortificado · 20/04/2017 08:22

Ha ha chunky has taken up the Baton brilliantly!

I am vaiiiiry busy sunning myself and nothing much to report. I thought I was looking a bit desperate so carefully didn't reply to a message (that didn't really require a reply) so we had two days of no contact.

Then he started it up again yesterday 😂😂

It really is like being back at school lol

Love this thread so confess to placemarking! I don't have any gorgeous male work colleagues to lust overSad so very happy to follow the knee trembling emotions of Teenage and Chunky... and others! Though I am pretty happily married for over 20yrs and I don't have fanny gallops for anyone (did someone say low sex drive?Blush) it does sometimes make me feel all forlorn that I will never snog anyone else... everSad snogging as a teenager... and older... was fab! I think I was a serial snogger... I loved it, but then I fell in love with my lovely chap and I had to give up my addiction. Mad pashes in the kitchen occasionally with himself has to suffice!

clarab3 · 20/04/2017 10:12

Go for it! Great friend has been happily shacked up with a man 19 years her junior for the last 5 years!

TeenageCentaurMortificado · 20/04/2017 12:57

I love that phrase 'shacked up' Grin

Resisting temptation to message randomly.

I'm having a holiday romance and he doesn't even know it 😂😂😂

I fancy the arse off someone I work with. We're both happily married with kid(s), and I wouldn't ever want something to actually happen, but my GOD one look at his neck has me frothing. He's 8 years younger than me.

Deejoda · 20/04/2017 17:42

His neck?! Tell us more...

StillWaters2017 · 20/04/2017 19:51

Name changed
I had a day off today and spent most of it in bed and 'got myself back to sleep' twice watching Pornhub and imagining a 3some with 2 guys from work.....feeling a bit smug as haven't had sex with OH since beginning of Feb and a bit ashamed lol

JamesDelaneysHat · 20/04/2017 21:48

Today I managed to invent a reason to interact with my work-crush. It involved me revealing my date of birth and the fact I'm married Grin. Tragic. He has big hands.

DreamingOfAFullNightsSleep · 20/04/2017 22:37

chunk I'm still on Team Go For It. You did say you thought he was such a nice person it wouldn't be super awkward for evermore. And otherwise, what of you still wondering what he'd have said in 5 or 10 years if you never tackle it?! 17 years is a long time to be with someone though. For all my fighting talk, I'd be useless, as I said. I have considered what dating would be like recently as it's been really rocky, pretty chit actually with my dh. Currently slightly improved but I'm not feeling like a smug married!

Daydream007 · 20/04/2017 23:05

I keep picking at my DC's Easter eggs and play ignorant when they notice some missing. I tell myself that I'm saving their teeth by eating them. They get too many Easter eggs from relatives anyway!

Spoog1971xx · 21/04/2017 01:40

I'm addicted to prescription painkillers

Chunkychocfest · 21/04/2017 10:01

You have it so in the bag teenage! You'll be sexting before the end of your hols

I, um, dropped the baton. Sorry to disappoint but round we go again. Blush

But it was a good chat and I feel back on a level and less anxious, more back and forth to come so all is not lost.

Plainlycrackers · 21/04/2017 15:06

Spoog1971xx are you ok? Have you been in this situation for long... have you asked for help? Flowers

Mikethenight2good · 21/04/2017 15:47

I too have a secret crush. He has a fit body and recently divorced.
I am married so it will never go anywhere. But god, he is seriously hot!

TeenageCentaurMortificado · 21/04/2017 23:13

Where's all the Friday night confessions?? Grin
