I don't stalk, but if I'm somewhere they are, I like kind of being aware of them. There was a dude at Border's book store that I loved to go and have a coffee, reading a book, look up, see him running about. Made me feel all cute, girly, and silly.

I don't get crushes anymore. I used to in high school, maybe a little bit after that, but certainly not for a while. I'm 35.

I'm so sorry for you. Crushes can be loads of fun. They makes us giddy and giggly and they are harmless.

It's nice to flirt and be flirted with.
Give a little positive energy out, get a little back in return.

My body can go where it wants with old age, but if I ever lose my ability to feel sexual, I will feel the greatest loss.

Eventually he took me up on it, it was GOOD but, short-lasting (because of gossip lol grrr) and he took a position at a different location.

Was a 20 years ago, so not sure if I would still feel the same.  At the time though, Ikkkes...couldn't slurp up enough of him. 

Um yeah, just thought of it...I'm over it LOL.

Status: offline 		ok ok you caught me.

I still do get em all the time, but I never act on them.

Crushes imply a sort of 'immature' lust right? or even a premature lust.

Yeah, well, they are ok, but not something I would act upon unless confronted (which I am never).  I would never go somewhere intentionally (now in my old age) or call a guy because of one.

Hmm there might lie the difference between a 'crush' and an obsession, I dunno which is more immature now LOL.

Thanks for confusing me OP

Status: offline 		I never acted on any of my crushes either. Although I had a boss that I crushed on who I used to leave little hershey kisses on his desk every time I stopped by his office. Everyone thought I WAS doing him, because I was the only assistant he didn't treat like shit, and the only one who ever got a raise from him. Not THAT kind of raise, you pervs! I still smile when I think about him. Mostly, because he really was a hardcase and a hardsell, and it did wonders for my self-esteem(and career) to win his respect.
