Obviously we wouldn’t act on it but just for fun!

Also my ex car mechanic.

Mine secret crush is a married friend who I’ve always had a mutual “flirty” relationship with (totally harmless on both sides) this is now a little more awkward as I’m seperated and now feels really odd to flirt as we always have as I don’t want anyone to think I’m after him, or to make his wife feel uncomfortable!

BishopstonFaffing · 21/10/2017 23:42

I suddenly realised that could sound creepy, bottlebleach. The thing is, my male friend was telling me about an amazing woman he met at his singing group and he thought she was interested but now thinks she isn't. So I really want it to be you because he is VERY interested.

Ahhhh I hope it is you Bottle......oh for a happy ending 😍

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 21/10/2017 23:53

Well there’s a few I’d say I “fancy” TBH. Two or three of DD’s friends dads are very good looking for example.

If you mean actually got a crush on though, no-one at the moment thankfully! I have had in the past & it’s not much fun.

BottleBeach · 21/10/2017 23:53

Ah, Bishopston, I wish it was! That’s exactly the kind of conversations I would love him to be having with his friends, and then they could egg him on to make a move Grin But I’m afraid it’s an S.

I once had a crush on a biology teacher. Poor man was married with children and very lovely non-lecherous teenager groped type man at all. But I do in hindsight congratulate myself on my taste. Having s secret crush on a nice family man is much better than having a crush on you brestfriends no good cousin or sone celebrity that is known for drug taking etc.

SpunBodgeSquarepants · 22/10/2017 00:09

The man with the beard and hi-vis vest who directs cars outside the primary school I walk past to take DS to preschool.

SidekickSally · 22/10/2017 00:20

My DD's PE teacher at primary school. I look him up on FB just to see what he's up to, it' very sad. I have day dreams about me and him in a "first dates" TV programme type scenario. It keeps me going in boring moments.

I had a crush on someone at work and then felt ridiculously silly when I realised he's about 25 and I am 43. I am happily married too!

Argeles · 22/10/2017 00:22

A guy who I sat opposite on the train last night, and I believe the attraction was mutual.

CountFosco · 22/10/2017 00:26

There's a nice young man at work that I suspect quite a few older women find attractive. Whenever we have a conversation about him someone always says he's lovely. He's good at his job, has no ego, and is clearly crazy about his girlfriend. Sigh.

oldlaundbooth · 22/10/2017 00:39

There's also a young bloke (who probably still lives at home) who I occasionally see walking to the train. He only looks about 20 but he's fit.

I'm 35 and feel quite seedy actually BlushGrin

EvilDemonRaspberryOverlord · 22/10/2017 00:48

My doctor is certainly fit. And there's a musician nearby who's pretty fit too. But neither of these is ever going to lead to anything, so I just admire from afar. I wouldn't say I have a crush, though.

EvilDemonRaspberryOverlord · 22/10/2017 00:55

Most of the blokes I know are at work, but I actually don't fancy any of them, even though one or two actually fit my "type" at least superficially.

fairyofallthings · 22/10/2017 00:56

A person who regularly visits my work place, she's gorgeous.

fantapants84 · 22/10/2017 01:01

A senior manager at work. He has the nicest smile ever. Although not a direct line manager of mine... sometimes he would need me to do some work for him. When he stands behind me whilst typing my fingers don’t work and I make mistakes cos I get so flustered. I feel like I could slide off my chair! He’s married tho ☹️

BarryTheKestrel · 22/10/2017 01:06

A mutual friend of me and DH. He is entirely my type, until he opens his mouth and then he is the most pompous twat and really puts me off again.

And my oldest friend. Have done for years. Nothing has ever/will ever happen as we are both very happy in our relationships and I don't think he's ever looked at me like that, but he gives me the gallops.

LinoleumBlownapart · 22/10/2017 01:06

My Zumba teacher, he is seriously hot and a man of few words. He's about 10 20 years younger than me with a lovely muscle toned body, which obviously I have to watch very carefully in order to get the moves right Wink
My other love is an old man who plays tennis in my local sport club. He has a soft spot for my single MIL who is 65, she is not interested at all but he chats to me to try and get to her and I developed a crush. He is the same age as my dad Blush

NotJustThreeSmallWords · 22/10/2017 01:13

A work colleague. The first time I met him I went into full on crush-meltdown. Which was fine because I didn't really have much to do with him. But recently we've begun working together and getting to know each other better and we actually have loads in common and get on fantastically well. All marvellous!
I have a female colleague who I instantly disliked on meeting. She's got a massive superiority complex and is so rude to everyone. She's known in the office as "Fucking X" because everytime anyone gets a message from her it's "I've had an email from fucking X, she wants blah blah blah..." Of course she's his wife. Took me a year to realise.

He gives me the fanny gallops though.

KeepServingTheDrinks · 22/10/2017 01:19

I'm honestly happily married. But my exercise bud is gorgeous (I'm not!). He's all lovely muscles and toned abs. I can't think why I'm his B F, but I love being with him in class. He's often the only bloke in the room as well, and he comes up to me to whisper bitchy comments in my ear and make me giggle and I'm old and overweight and hideous and the room is full of gorgeous younger things.

He's also gay.

But he makes my life a little brighter.

Heigh ho.

WanderingTrolley1 · 22/10/2017 01:25

My GP, the school caretaker.

romany4 · 22/10/2017 01:26

My son's teacherBlush
He's got piercing blue eyes and is from Northern Ireland. I always get very hot and bothered when I speak to him

SashaFiercesMum · 22/10/2017 01:35

I have 2 Blush. One is a male friend whom I've known for about 3 years and the other is a guy at work. I'm a shameless flirt at work though and I mask it Well!Grin

Mollie85 · 22/10/2017 01:45

A musician who comes around our neck of the woods four times a year. We'd actually been friends for years and I slept with him at the end of 2014 and continued to shag him every time he came here "see" him until I realised I'd fallen for him in a spectacular fashion. He had absolutely no interest in me that way. And made it perfectly clear it was a sex thing.
I've NC with him since feb 2016 and he stopped texting me in May of this year.

I still check when he's playing here and do not leave the house that entire time. I still fancy him like mad but know the potential is there for me to hurt myself massively ...

All a bit tragic really

NextIndia · 22/10/2017 02:58

No one at the moment and thank fuck for that. My heart is in recovery. 💔
