When did you last have a crush on someone?

I currently have a crush on someone.

Stephanie, 25

About three years ago.

I sort of have a crush on someone right now, but the last time my heart was entirely set on someone was about 8 months ago.

It's been a long time since I had a crush. I do think that my boss is very handsome and cool, but I don't think that would be considered a crush. A few years ago I had a slight crush on a guy that I worked with who looked exactly like Malibu Ken. This was a few months before I met my husband. Malibu Ken asked me to go on his sailboat one afternoon and we had fun. But he was very conceited.  And I think he was anorexic. He had a lot of baggage! I got over him quickly! I guess I did have a little crush on another guy I worked with when I was engaged. I know he had a crush on me too. He would make me blush. I worked with a bunch of clowns and losers and my job sucked. He was the only normal person in the whole company - very nice and intelligent. I think my husband sort of knew that I had a crush on this guy. I felt so strange being madly in love and engaged, and still managing to have a little crush on someone else. I was actually pretty honest with my husband - I t! old him I thought this guy was the greatest - not that I would ever in a million years act on it. I guess it's just human nature to get crushes. However, I would go absolutely crazy if I knew my husband had a crush on someone else. I would throw a huge fit and be so incredibly hurt. I have double-standards sometimes!

A crush? Does being in love with someone count? The last time I had an actual CRUSH, just a crush, was probably David, which was about two years ago.

Right now I have two crushes. One stong and the other mild. There may be a third brewing in the background.

A long

time ago...
I think.

I guess... recently - a new hire at my job was handed over to me to train. She's cute, personable and attractive. Perhaps for a short time what I was feeling could've been called a crush. But by now it's changed - feels more like I regard her as a slightly bratty sister now. It's still good - we pick on each other a lot and buddy around often - but I don't feel the strain of having thoughts about someone other than my wife

I have a crush on someone now, actually. Not that I'd do anything about it.  I just like looking at him.

Not too long ago, actually I still have one I think. One day when I was really upset, this guy, a total stranger, pulled me aside and bought me a soda and let me talk his ear off. I thought I'd never see the guy again, but sure enough a couple months later I order a pizza and there he is at my door delivering it! Wierd, eh? Well anyway, I have seen him in all sorts of places since then and he is sort of my "knight in shining armor" I can't help but crush on him. = )

Now that I think about it, I believe I had a crush on the man I still love today! I was not looking to meet Mr. Right at the time we met...but I remember sometimes even feeling a bit giddy (and at my age that's refreshing as hell) when I'd talk about him with friends. Crushes are pretty cool.

A bona fide crush.... About 4 years ago I had a crush on a man who was at least 35 years older than me. I met him through work, and only saw him a couple of times a year.  I enjoy crushes. They make you feel all kinds of silly and foolish. But they are temporary. And that's why they are fun.

My last heart-grabbing crush was probably 45 years ago.

Oh, jeez, the last major crush I had on somebody was in college. Obsession is probably more like it. She was a close "friend" of mine, although, in hindsight, she merely used me to get her booze (she was underage). Uh, she was really my first female friend...and the closer friends we became, the more I desired her. In fact, I had lots of dreams about her (pathetic,  huh?)

The last time i had a crus on someone was about 6 months ago,  when i had a crush on my best guy friend at university. I haven't had a crush since, because 3 months ago we got together. :-)  And then of course there's the whole deal with celebrity crushes, which i have absolutely all the time, but of course everyone does.

When did I last have a crush on someone? Well,  around May or June, I started working at a new job at a motel and one of the managers was from India, and he had this really cool accent and I thought it was really sexy when he talked in his native language. He left to go to California for a week I think, and I found out while he was gone that he was vegetarian like me, so I thought..hmmmmm... and the other manager told me he wasn't married, because I thought he was. I guess he told him about me over the phone and he started calling me every afternoon while he was in Cali. So, when he got back, we started talking about putting a vegetarian restaurant in the motel. Well, I kept my crush for a couple of days and then I saw him playing with his sock one day while we where sitting down talking work, and I saw a talk show not long before that, saying that if a guy likes you, he'll play with his sock while the two of you are talking. So then, I got my hopes up. Well, to make a long story a little shorter, I'm married to him now. Heehee! So, the last crush I had became my husband.

I had my last major crush when I was working as a cashier at Kroger's, and one of the floor managers (who was, by the way, 26 when I was 18). He was very flirtatious, but he was also easy to talk to. That was about 2 years ago.

About a month ago, but it's pretty much gone now because it turns out the person has changed completely...

A couple months ago; it was only about a half hour long until I found out the person in question was married.

I have been married for several years. The other day, a fellow from my past, came to town to visit his mom & dad. We went out for the evening, as old friends. And nothing else.  Now I think of him all the time. My heart beats more and my breathing is shallow. I did not think this possible. I wonder if he feels the same way.  I will probably never know as we are both married, with children, we are both rather sensible and would not want to hurt our familes.  Not metioning my name, this time.

Oh I don't know, maybe a few hours ago. . . .It honestly doesn't take much for me to believe any woman is an absolutely ideal creature that I could bond with forever. . .
