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

A GP where I work - gorgeous man!
My very young electrician. My daughter fancies him too

MrsMarigold · 25/10/2017 13:22

I've never fancied a colleague - ewwww! You should see the men I've worked with, lots of straight 'n' single ones but no ways. In fact I haven't seen a remotely fanciable stranger in ages.

On the flip side the man at the dry cleaners fancies me, I feel like he's looking at me naked when I go there. I stopped going, and always take something of DH's. He is quite sleazy but always asks me what I want to pay and so I get very reasonable dry cleaning.

A guy at the gym. Although not young enough to be my son, he is definitely too young for me, but he is lovely looking and always very polite and considerate. I turn into a complete wibbler whenever he is in gym, even managed to fall over my own feet once in front of him. Blush

My DS's teacher. He has a lovely soft welsh accent and seems so sweet and kind.

TheTurnOfTheScrew · 25/10/2017 14:09

DC1's music teacher Confused. He's very much not my type, and I'd be surprised if he's 30, but I'm perimenopausal and my ovaries are a law unto themselves.

stevie69 · 25/10/2017 14:42

The most gorgeous guy in the world (IMHO Blush) who's mid 30s and lives in north London.

He knows who he is and ...... it's not a huge secret Grin

TattyDevine · 25/10/2017 17:19

Oh, loads of people!

Celeb wise, William Beck from casualty (terrible show that has me shouting at the tv but, y’know, William Beck...)

He plays Dylan.

I think it’s Dylan I fancy though, because he’d be so hard to impress, but of course I could...

TheLastPeg · 25/10/2017 17:53

Oh me too Tatty! I find casualty bloody annoying but Dylan is mmm. I think it's the grumpiness.

Auldspinster · 25/10/2017 18:20

Dylan is the only thing that makes me stick with Casualty.

I had a job in the NHS once where I had to seek legal advice a fair bit. The guy I had to talk to had the most amazing sexy voice. I'm sure I used to spend more on my legal bill than I ought. Blush The way he used to say my name had me in pieces.

One case needed him to come to a meeting and I was so excited to meet him..... but he looked a bit like this. My crush crashed. Sad

Most recently I've had a crush on a colleague. But lately I've started working more closely with him and have realised he's a total arse. Thankfully as the crush was a nuisance and at least now I can't talk to him like a proper human.

EnglishRose13 · 25/10/2017 19:42

A colleague. We flirt at Christmas parties, otherwise we ignore each other. We are both married with children.

I didn't think very highly of him for the first few years we worked together. I don't have much to do with him. I always thought he came across as arrogant.

One Christmas party he started chatting to me and something just clicked. I saw him completely differently.

I hate feeling this way.

uncoolnn · 25/10/2017 19:59

Shamefully, a colleague Grin I have a massive soft spot for him... I shouldn’t GrinWink

GodIsDead · 25/10/2017 20:00

The chemist

notthegumdropbuttons · 25/10/2017 20:03

The guy who works in the restaurant down the road. He looks like Cillian Murphy.

Midge1978 · 25/10/2017 22:44

When I left to go on maternity leave (sadly never to return) my manager told me how brilliant I was and how lovely. He’d never said anything like that before, he usually just gave his orders or took the mick. Then he hugged me and when I eventually pulled away he hugged me tighter. My legs literally turned to jelly!

Two of my neighbours (married - not to each other). This other married guy I know.

redexpat · 25/10/2017 22:56

The clinical psychologist who diagnosed ds with autism. He listened to me with his big brown eyes...

rightknockered · 25/10/2017 23:00

The man living next door, swoon. Lithe tight body, wavy hair, so polite and lovely. But he has a lovely girlfriend.
Ds3's teacher, lovely smiley face.

buddy79 · 25/10/2017 23:25

A really fit-in-a-dirty-way bus driver. Have only seen him once but still haven’t stopped thinking about him. I think (hopefully!) he noticed me too, there was a definite zing as a mutely showed him my ticket... mmmm..

MummaTwinkleToes · 25/10/2017 23:26

Midge1978 I had just bought a flat with DP. He was the only person to make me question being with DP. I never went for the drink as I knew something would happen. He gave me a lift home once and I pretended to feel ill as I knew he would try and kiss me. We both left that site and moved onto different jobs. Text a few times and then lost contact but always thought of him and what could have been. Then a few months ago bumped into him. He hugged and kissed me. I was with my kids. He knew I had one as he speaks to an old colleague so I know he asked about me. He's now married with a baby. I was so jealous. For a couple of weeks he was all I thought of again and it hurt like hell. Thought of contacting him. Then I got my head straight and realised how disrespectful it would be to DH and his DW.

lastqueenofscotland · 25/10/2017 23:27

One of my clients. Blush

MummaTwinkleToes · 25/10/2017 23:29

And I was really upset that I looked like a sweaty, 'fat' (post baby) mess when I used to look awesome.

Midge1978 · 26/10/2017 18:07

Mummatwinkletoes that’s very admirable and takes a lot of integrity and self control to do as you have done.
