Strange Attractions

    Has anyone else ever been attracted to some-one who you think you shouldn't be? Some-one you would be embarrassed to tell your friends about?

    Its happened to me a few times, the thing is I can find it very hard to shake the feelings - so frustrating!!!!!!!!

    It happens with people I know and also some celebrities.

    For instance, where I work there is a delivery man I see at least once a week. He's in his 40's (I'm 25) & has a big belly. He was probably pretty good looking about 10 years ago. But when he's around, I dunno, I get all embarrased and nervous when he's around - worse i think he knows cuz he he's started winking at me!! I find myself thinking about him quite a bit. Its not like I typically go for older guys, I don't.

    Also I find Turlough off Fair City quite sexy. Also John Bishop is hot!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaGexC8HG2c

    It feels wrong!

    Just ride him, it'll get it out of your system and make his day/week/year.

    Admit it - you're really a 40-something year old delivery man.

    why are you worried what your friends think?? if they are that bad then get new friends, i don't look for my friends to doublecheck :P neither would i expect them to listen to me unless the other person is hideously ugly or something or i knew that person was a complete a*shole

    You don't get it, this is some guy I meet a work, we excahnge a few words about the delivery and what have you and maybe the weather, thats it. i know nothing about this man but cant help being attracted to him. He is totally not my type and my plans for my future do not include a guy the wrong side of 40!!!! I just want to not feel like this!!
    Whats wrong with me anyway, its not the first time and my attraction to celebs weirds me out at times too!!!

    Sure it's happened to me before. But I let it slide, because I when I get them, I'm like "What the **** was I thinking?" Even if it's a one night thing you still feel dirty as you're trudging out of their house midday on a sunday.

    Doubly so if you work with them, in my humble opinion. Do what you want OP!

    Maybe it was a weird desire to lick the folds in his skin. I can't think of it being anything else.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭tangerinepuppet


    +1 to Neil Delamere and Eamonn Dunphy! Hmmm and what about that daft butcher in Coronation Street?

    Yes, I have a very yummy lecturer. Only good thing about that class :p

    well if its a fit teacher, then its not a strange attraction! What about an old fat bald teacher with bad breath. that would be strange. not that my crush is bald or has bad breath
