NC for this one.

I am happily married with a DS aged 4. He has special needs and has people working with him to help support him.

One of his workers is amazing with DS, but I find myself thinking about him a lot and I go all funny and act really stupid around him. I have not had this since meeting DH. I actually think I'm falling for him.

I haven't and don't plan on doing anything about it. For many reasons:

  1. he's working with my son and that would ruin that lovely relationship
  2. I actually think he's gay,
  3. I love my DH and would never hurt him
  4. he isn't my usual 'type' at all so I can't understand why I'm falling for him but I guess there's just no reason for it...

What strange and inappropriate crushes have you had? How do I snap myself out of this?

Help!

AmIFalling I wonder if there is something evolutionary behind this? I too am strangely drawn to my DC's music teacher. He's young, very kind and caring to my DC, and super-enthusiastic about her. I think this sets off something in my ovaries that screams Good Man to Sire Children, despite the fact that he's very not my usual type, and very possibly gay.

But what if I tell you and then you fancy them too?

I'll be complicit in infecting you with a really, really inappropriate and offensive crush.

OhGrrrreat · 07/11/2018 11:14

Omg Muse is it Donald Trump?

ThrownMuse · 07/11/2018 11:16

No, not Trump!

This person is long dead. But he was mates with Hitler....see...see whay I can't go there!!

WhyDidIEatThat · 07/11/2018 11:17

Oh my god Muse! I bet it’s the same one as me!!!

AmIFalling · 07/11/2018 11:20

@TheTurnOfTheScrew I reckon so. He effortlessly picked up a screaming child the other day with his messy hair , paint covered clothes and awkward ways. My reaction in my head was 'god I want you now'.

I had a major crush on Harry Potter  still do buy the fictional adult HP

What are the chances, Why?

I have no defence, other than I only fancy this person in one photo, and one photo only, pre-dating when he joined the Nazi Party and became a huge, massive arsehole (and a sick fascist, obviously).

AmIFalling · 07/11/2018 11:21

Hah! Muse I was going to say kim jong un Kim jong un but I'm now think gobbles or Stalin?

WithAFaeryHandInHand · 07/11/2018 11:23

ThrownMuse · 07/11/2018 11:25

I'm laughing so hard at these that I can't type! Gustl Kubizek!

Are you ready? Shall I tell you?

WithAFaeryHandInHand · 07/11/2018 11:25

DirtyLittleCrush · 07/11/2018 11:25

ThrownMuse · 07/11/2018 11:27

Shock

I mean it was never going to be good was it?

I mean, did you know who he was and what he’d done when you saw the picture?

WhyDidIEatThat · 07/11/2018 11:30

Mine’s not Goering, thank god we’re not competing over these men

DirtyLittleCrush · 07/11/2018 11:31

Oh dear life! Poor you! 😂

ToddlerIs2 · 07/11/2018 11:31

I think there's something so hot about men who are great with kids, especially when our kids are extra needs and not everyone is great with them. Then a guy sweeps is, promises he'd make everyone of your eggs happy and loved whilst wrangling the meltdown kid who just screams at you.
Mother Nature is llall "THAT ONE WOULD TAKE A SABER TOOTH TIGER FOR YOU!! COPULATE!!!!!!!!

Pickledturnip · 07/11/2018 11:32

Well, mine isn't that exciting but.... Richard Ayoade. Dribbling mess when he appears on screen 😍

ThrownMuse · 07/11/2018 11:34

It's a shocker, I know. There is no defence, and I don't have a picture of him on my bedroom wall or fantasise about him.

And yes I knew, but I had only ever seen pictures of HG when he was fat and older, I was surprised when I saw this one.

I do feel it's someoneone else's turn, please.

SputnikBear · 07/11/2018 11:35

There was a thread about this the other week.

FWIW Jeff Goldblum is not an embarrassing crush. Have you SEEN that shirtless scene in Jurassic Park?!

WhyDidIEatThat · 07/11/2018 11:35

I’ve already done my part and I’m not sharing my nazi but there is also young Stalin
