Messaged "celeb" crush and now feel like an idiot

A bit lighthearted. He is a member of a semi- famous indie band. I just replied to his IG story asking about his pet. Nothing at all flirty. I'd had a couple of glasses of wine when I did that. He didn't reply and now I feel like an absolute tit! AIBU to feel like this? He probably gets loads of messages from fans and doesn't really read them so I'm probably BU!

@namechangeGOT Another Pearcy fan here... it was the thighs...😂

I messaged Gérard Butler offering to smother him with my big boobies 😩🫣😅

He's probably not even seen your message, can't you just delete it?

Seriously, you have nothing to worry about. I once told a work colleague when I was a bit tipsy at a work do, that I fancied a married man who'd flirted me. He had a bit of the George Clooney about him so think I can be forgiven, but of course I would never have dreamt of going there.

Unfortunately she told another work colleague who was extremely toxic, who reported me to my manager and told her that I was actually having an affair with him. My manager then reported me to his place of work, all done without actually asking me if any of it was actually true!

I live in a small town so obviously people started gossiping, and I was absolutely mortified and even considered moving to another part of the country!

I would think that he probably assumes you are some kind of pet nut rather that someone who is obsessed with him

Ha ha, that's a great story and a brave thing to do if you ask me. If it was Glen Hoddle, I also had a crush on him in the seventies. 😀 X

@Fandango52that must've made her whole year! What a lovely thing for him to do.

@Fandango52- quoted the wrong bloody post, didn't I 😅😅 I meant the one about your daughter!

I don’t know what this means?

I once accidentally messaged William Orbit, in the early days of MySpace (for younger readers, this was a sort of Facebook prototype). For some reason I imagined he had added me as a friend (not sure how I got this idea... not even pissed!!!), and thanked him. Then I realised my mistake and wrote again to apologise. He sent me a very sweet message saying that getting the hang of it was all rather confusing and not to worry. Emboldened, I sent him a track someone I knew had made. He said it was a perky little number and was very nice about it. When I told them, they were gobsmacked because when they had put the track together, they'd often joked "What if William Orbit got to hear this one day?" and I had inadvertently realised their dream!

Eddie Izzard replied to me !

They do that with everyone.
I've had the bog standard letter ack too.

Yeah, I know! Feels a bit more important than that when you’re 7 though!
