Mine was Sting. The tantric sex sounds alright tbh.

Davis Beckham or Zac Hanson. I’ve just had to google Zac and found out he has 4 kids now. I feel very old.

It’s a yes to both.

I was tragically attracted to wan indie types, so Damon Albarn, Brett Anderson, Jarvis Cocker, Richey Edwards... all of them would still get it, with the obvious exception of Richey, and I went off him anyway with the whole self-harm thing.

Oddly enough, the guy I had a thing for at school liked me on Tinder recently. He'd obviously forgotten that he was a complete wanker to me back then by making my life miserable when he found out I liked him. I guess I must have aged ok 😆. He hadn't, however, so I swiped left!

Taylor hanson
I think at that age I half fancied him and half wished I was as pretty .... but now he def doesn’t look like a girl 😍

premiumQuaver · 12/12/2020 23:13

@Lightningrain yes I googled too-Taylor has 6 soon to be 7 kids !

FlamingGoat · 12/12/2020 23:14

Be difficult, he became a Catholic priest 😂

Wobblysausage · 12/12/2020 23:15

Elijah Wood. Yes please!

AngelsWithSilverWings · 12/12/2020 23:20

Tony Hadley - no thank you! I cringe whenever I see him on present day TV

msssm · 12/12/2020 23:22

Paul Young. Still would he has aged well and seems lovely.

My real life crush became a heroin addict. I hope he is still alive and doing better but I doubt it sadly.

ah I forgot! Andrew Ridgeley.
Not sure now.

twilightcafe · 13/12/2020 00:05

Hell, yeah!

alltoomuchrightnow · 13/12/2020 00:07

Scott Baio... hmm probably not

alltoomuchrightnow · 13/12/2020 00:09

ooh I forgot.. Pierce Brosnan (Remington Steele days) and yes I still would!

angieloumc · 13/12/2020 00:19

Nick Heyward, he's still a fine looking chap as well.

StillMedusa · 13/12/2020 00:24

Pierce Brosnan (alltoomuchrightnow I guess we are a similar age Grin ) in Remington Steele was defo my first heart throb!!!

Also had Adam Ant and John Taylor on my walls....

I'd definitely still 'do' Pierce!!!!

FortunesFave · 13/12/2020 00:30

Mine looked like Billy Idol. His name was John and he was about 17...he barely acknowledged me but his friend used to talk to us because he fancied my friend's big sister...at the ice rink. I LIVED to see John speedskating around the rink to Eye of the Tiger 😂

TableFlowerss · 13/12/2020 00:41

I met mine 20 years later and went out drinking as part of a group that he was in.

Sadly he was no longer this hot, sexy 38 year old. I found his son to be more attractive so we had a little kiss instead 😜

GlitterBiatch · 13/12/2020 00:44

James Masters (specifically as Spike from BTVS)
Yes please I still would Grin He’s actually a bit short for my usual type (he would still be taller than me) but apart from that I still have a thing for him - it all came flooding back when I rewatched it during the first lockdown BlushGrin

ikltownofboothlehem · 13/12/2020 00:53

John Taylor from Duran Duran. Yep. Still would.

Itsmadhere · 13/12/2020 00:54

Kurt Russell as Santa 🎅❤️😂 I totally would!

NiceGerbil · 13/12/2020 00:55

No. They were all gay it turned out Grin

And they'd be too old for me.

StillMedusa · 13/12/2020 00:56

Glitterbiatch
Oh yes. Spike was HOT . I have the complete DVD set but also rewatched during lockdown. Buffy is my 'go to' whenever I need cheering up ..

GlowingOrb · 13/12/2020 01:00

Wil Wheaton

Kind of reminds me of my DH, but wil is a dog person so it might not work out.

Fungster · 13/12/2020 01:06

Matt Goss. I don't like Vegas, so probably a good thing we're not together 😄

Sweettea1 · 13/12/2020 01:15

Patrick swayze Sad
Peter andre Hmm
Robbie Williams Confused

LeahDownTheLane · 13/12/2020 01:18
