My younger sister's boyfriend. Who i went on to have a very heartbreaking relationship with. Lots of drama lost my heart to him. Long story but he recently re connected with me after 30 plus years. the outcome of which has been rather disappointing to say the least.

Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) - totally still would.
Real: a boy my Mum childminded, he kissed me on the cheek and I didn't want to wash it for days Grin

In RL it was a boy called Clifford when I was in primary school, different secondary schools, worked together a few years ago, he offered to take me out and I declined, never though of that before.

I can't remember my first celeb crush tho

Gary Glitter. I was 6. I used to have a poster of him on my wall that I used to kiss goodnight. (Although I also had a poster of black beauty and did the same to him lol!) I’m horrified!! Confused

DontDrinkDontSmoke · 04/11/2017 11:42

Adam Ant

I still have a crush on him and still would.

MaroonPencil · 04/11/2017 11:45

Adric from Doctor Who. I was about seven. I had a 3D Viewmaster with some pictures of him that I used to gaze at soulfully.

@AnonEvent I think that episode where he is chained up wearing only a loin cloth may have triggered confusing feelings in many a young girl Grin

Gary Lineker 😶
In real life 2 lads who were 2 years above me at prep school Matt & Steve.
Steve drank in the same pub as my mum and dad years later and was still a lovely guy but definitely not fanciable as an adult. I'm not sure he grew after the age of 13!

Lewis Collins as Bodie in The Professionals when I was about 12. Still lust after him 30+ years later.

Roger Taylor, the drummer from Duran Duran, when I was about 14.

Charlie Sheen when he was young, when I was about 16. Not into him at all now.

I was in year 3 and there was a lad in year 6 and I just adored him really did, I remember he came to my house once to play with my brother and I was so excited because he asked did I want to play too!

Literally everyone knew I fancied him even my headteacher haha I cringe so much now. My dad actually mentioned him to me last week asking has anyone seen or heard of him since primary!
