[GraffitiBoi]

Good morning all you beautiful femmes and handsome butches! I hope everyone is having a crushtastic day. I am on vacation (stayed in my own town) and am having a great time. I do not have a crush on the planet, unless you count friend crushes, but the lovely femme I am crushing on here in the frozen tundra we call Minnesota has invited me over tonight for an early birthday gift. *grin* It's just what I wanted too! :awww:

[little_ms_sunshyne]

Good Morning Crushers...

I am up way too early! Refusing to get out of bed and playing cheesy love songs for no apparent reason or perhaps because they make my heart happy and lonely all at once! So naturally I come to the crush thread to live vicariously through all you sweet crushers and crushees!

Happy Crushing <3

[Ciaran]

to live vicariously through all you

Not sure why but that phrase, or any derivative of it ("live vicariously through you" etc) is one of my most hated phrases of all-time.

Fortunately, you are incredibly beautiful outside and inside as otherwise I'd be very annoyed.

Ciaran,

You are so damn charming.

You can't be annoyed with me, we share a love for ABBA! "Fernando...."

And thank you :) that is sweet of you to say *blushes*

[Ciaran]

Agghhhh ..... I've always tried to be in the closet about my love of Fernando.


Never ever thought it would be outed on a US-based B/F forum :hamactor:


Hopefully you will be at the Reunion this year? If so, I think we need an ABBA costume party as it gives me a perfect excuse to wear sparkly stuff whilst still pretending to be "manly" ;)

[clay]

yo Ciaran...my bro crush......KOTC!...grins

Well, if there is an ABBA costume party how could I not attend!?

"Take a chance on me...."

May or may not be currently listening to ABBA because of such talk! :|

[SleepyButch]

It's dreary here today but a perfect day for crushing on someone. Crush on crushers......

[Gráinne]

I thought I was the only one with a closet love for ABBA-never mind that I was alive when those songs came out.

I think we should just go all the way, and all Disco Ducks (and wannabes) wear the sparklies just because ;).

ABBA lovers unite!!! Could I then say that I crush on ABBA lovers???? Lol

[Little Fish]

Hi everyone,

My name is Little Fish....and I'm an ABBA addict....

[SleepyButch]

I have the Wii ABBA game for dancing and singing.. does that count?

[little_ms_sunshyne]

Hmmmmm....Considering that this has the potential to provide hours of ABBA filled entertainment, well I do believe that I can make an exception!

Why are we closeted, anyway? And why the hating on ABBA? Don't want to guess at little_fish and Lil-Miss-Sunshine's ages, but we had fun music back then :). We had fun times, period :).

[DamonK]

Yes. Definitely. Hard, steal my breath every possible moment type....

And several friend crushes.

Absolutely no hating here...never in the closet about ABBA! I was front row when Mama Mia traveled to San Antonio!!! I love me some ABBA!

I was going to ask if you saw the movie (the music was the best part, IMO), but didn't know it was a traveling show :). Yay!

I'm guihong, btw, ABBA lover and general '70's swooner ;).

Fabulous! Nice to meet you guihong, Sunshyne here...Your fellow ABBA lover ;)

[Parker]

I love me some ABBA :winky:


This is my favorite scene from the movie, Mamma Mia - talk about "girl power" lol - I love how all the women just keep joining in - and that woman who throws off the bundle of sticks and screams "Oh Yeah!" - love it!

Whenever I watch the movie, I have to replay this song over and over again, it is so much fun. :)

Can we take turns????

Hmmmmm... ummmmmm..... okay!

[stepfordfemme]

I will seriously crush on anyone who loves ABBA half as much as I do.

[Little Fish]

Apparently there's a whole gang of us...

>>>> fondly remembering dancing at the Trocadero in San Francisco with 400 shirtless gay men in 1983....continuous ABBA loop...

.......remembers dancing to Dancing Queen when I WAS 17! Still going strong at 46! :D

[Ciaran]

Guys and Gals

I still hate ABBA, never liked them, could never understand why anyone would.

Nor did I ever dream of marrying Agnetha, even after her divorce from Björn in 1982. In fact, every 5th April (her birthday), I say a prayer of thanks that I am not married to her.

Do I protest too much?


I don't know but, if so, at least listen to my all time favourite songs by some Swedish group:


Sj_9CiNkkn4



BshxCIjNEjY




In case, you didn't know by now, I LOVE ABBA. Finally out of the closet about it and it feels good ;)

[Ciaran]

I will seriously crush on anyone who loves ABBA half as much as I do.

"Seriously crush"? Why waste your time with serious crushing, I'll marry someone who loves ABBA as much as I do.

ps - what are you doing second weekend of March? Fancy a w/e in Vegas?

[KCBUTCH]

Jumping into to matter-of fact I FRICKEN LOVE ABBA THAT IS ALL!!

[Ciaran]

Why are we closeted, anyway? And why the hating on ABBA? Don't want to guess at little_fish and Lil-Miss-Sunshine's ages, but we had fun music back then :). We had fun times, period :).

Being closeted in an ABBA sense is a powerful tool and is very different from being closeted over sexuality or identity.

It's not that being "out" as ABBA is wrong or that we fear our families would turn against us etc. Rather, being "closeted" gives us the surprise factor ......... I work up to 16 hours a day, it's a hard and conservative and smile-less life. It's black suits and hard work.

But on my way into the office and on my way back home, there's nothing better or more real than listening to "dancing queen" .. or my current favourite:

RCvkq8l6R_w


ABBA, for me, is the same as my fashion. It's just a part of me. Some get it - most don't. That's fine as I don't get most people either. It's so out of my day-to-day world of 9am to 5pm white collar-ism that if I ever tried to actually fit into it I couldn't.


ps - I'm all for kissing the teacher.

[jac]

I would crush on ABBA if they were here at the Planet...lol

My favorite ABBA masterpiece is Thank You for the Music... I really :heartbeat: that song!! :D

[WolfyOne]

I love ABBA as much as the rest of you.
Danced to their music at the bars in my 20's.

But...the BIG question is, who do you have a crush on here at the planet?
Always enjoy reading those, whether it be serious or friendly.
I always like to read about how we admire each other for whatever reason.

[MarquisdeShey]

Crush... deadly crush... hopping up and down kind of crush.

http://ts1.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.4699983596748892&pid=15.1

Be still my heart....two of my crushes are ABBA fans as well. *swoon*

Ah .... but ABBA is a bit like alcohol. Embracing ABBA is a bit like drinking a few alcoholic drinks, inhibitions are lowered.

All of a sudden, folk start telling you (Wolfie) who they fancy.

[espressolover83]

Oh, it's been going on for almost 5yrs now :)

[Ciaran]

<----the girl who sings along VERY loudly to ABBA Gold on each and every opportunity

Ummm ...... that doesn't tell us enough. ABBA Gold is very diverse.

It's a bit like someone telling me that they are a New York baseball fan and then I'm still nervous to say the Mets are ***** on the off-chance they actually like the Mets and do not support the best team in the world (THE YANKEES).


Good songs from that album (others are nonsense):

Dancing Queen
Knowing Me, Knowing You
Take a Chance on Me
Super Trouper
Chiquitita
Fernando
Waterloo


If you like the above and dislike most of the others, you are a potential wife. Just saying.

[Ciaran]

Oh, it's been going on for almost 5yrs now :)

Didn't think you would pop up here Nicky :)

[stepfordfemme]

I crush on ....
Ciaran's fashion sense.
SleepyButch's dance moves.
Wolfy's sweetness & coffee making skills
Little_Fish's charisma
KCbutch's energy
*femmecrush* little_ms's fabulousness
*femmecrush* dixie's kick-butt motivating self.

And the general crush kinda warm fuzzy feeling Im getting from the crush thread!

Unfortunately my current crush isn't on the planet so no further reveals are necessary!

[stepfordfemme]

"Seriously crush"? Why waste your time with serious crushing, I'll marry someone who loves ABBA as much as I do.

ps - what are you doing second weekend of March? Fancy a w/e in Vegas?

Only if there is shoe shopping involved ;)

[Ciaran]

Only if there is shoe shopping involved ;)

Shoe shopping? Yes, a full hour to buy some Italian leather gucinari shoes.

Then, the rest of the weekend is spent in an Irish bar.

Okay with that?

ps - do you want tea, guinness or whiskey?

Way too liberal / PC for my liking.


Anyone else like to be my wife? ***

Alas, I am already discovering that I am just not wife material. Thank heavens, or I would be heartbroken.

Awww that's not true... You're right prince(ess) charming has just not made their appearance yet. It will happen.......

[dixie]

Thanks. That is very sweet of you to say. :)

I think maybe their horse got lame along the way. Or they were the one kidnapped and I must slay the dragon. Damn good thing I'm fearless. ;) :D

[Ciaran]

Alas, I am already discovering that I am just not wife material. Thank heavens, or I would be heartbroken.

Wife material? I don't even know what that is.

Was thinking more of a whirlwind marriage, trip around the world and then get divorced.

Oh, in that case sign me up! I have a passport.

[Ciaran]

Ok. Genuinely.

Up for this.

Life is too short and sometimes you need to take a risk.


ps - don't want many family members at wedding as don't want needless cost so can you say you are marrying an itinerant or something like that



ps - on the honeymoon, we need to go to Montevideo.

[MissItalianDiva]

Hmmm I am going to play coy and say perhaps...

Potential wife material here. And I'll say I've always loved Duran Duran (esp. Come Undone).

Besides, I've always wanted to go to Uruguay.

[SleepyButch]

I crush on ....

Well heck... thanks for noticing. You know I crush on you just because you are beautiful, sexy, smart, and basically the whole enchilada!

[Gráinne]

Aww, you know I could never throw you or da Beaker to the side ;). Always crushing on the two of you :).

:wine:.....:sunglass:
OHhh I am so glad...Beaker is, too....:hangloose:

Not in the true sense of the word though there are many gorgeous butches and lovely femmes here. Today I am feeling single = freedom.

Maaaayyyybbbeeeee I have a crush.

Okay, what are you doing on 2nd March? I've a free space in my diary from 2pm to 3pm so if you want to get married then, we can make it happen.


ps Duran Duran? Um ...... that's a bit like saying you are a San Diego Padres fan. I start to feel detached and a bit of pity at the same time. Now, if you'd said Ultravox, I'd be on my knees by now. If Ultravox's Love's Great Adventure isn't one of your top ten all-time songs then the marriage probably won't last past the end of March.

[espressolover83]

Anyone else like to be my wife? ***





*** I'm genuinely a nice guy.

I don't know about being your kinda wife, but you had me at Chimay (blue) :) I say get married at Murphy's (but since no same-sex marriage laws in the Philippines, so it really won't hold any water, but it'd be fun) then do a trip round the world, only in 'football countries' that have decent beer and Irish pubs! PS. I do pop on here once in a wee while :)

The San Diego Padres? What? My heart will always be in Cleveland. That makes me all the more pitiful.

Right group, wrong song ;). LGA is up there, but this leads:

*pencils in 2 March, 8AM CST (=2PM GMT).* You have too little faith. I give it until mid-May at least, especially if lasagne-making attempts are successful.

*pencils in 2 March, 8AM CST (=2PM GMT).* You have too little faith. I give it until mid-May at least, especially if lasagne-making attempts are successful.


Okay, I'd booked the church and told my parents. My dad was okay with it but my mum said she'd only give her blessing if you were Irish and Roman Catholic. Acting instinctively, I converted you to Catholicism (I have a bottle of holy water for you) and changed your name from Guihong to Gráinne. Hope that's okay.


We were all ready for the marriage and I was looking forward to it :)


And then I read the above words of betrayal - "My heart will always be in Cl***land".


Those words are like a dagger through the heart to me - even the word "Cl***land" (I cannot even type it out in full as it is too painful) is enough to render me emotionally impotent as it was in that city that Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak was ended on July 17 1941.


I'm just so glad I found out about this before March 2nd. The wedding is now called off ***



*** that said, I think that the conversion to Catholicism was bone fide. Therefore, I hope to see you at mass later today.

[Gráinne]

Gráinne. I like it :).

But I might have known my almost fatalistic love for my hometown teams (who haven't won a championship in anything since I've been on the planet) would come back to bite me in the butt, big time. And all because of the fate of having been born there. Lasagne-making skills and love of obscure 80's music notwithstanding, the C word is one of those dealbreakers.

Bantering around in the crush thread can get you crushed (w).

*walks away muttering 'so close, so close'*

PS. I do pop on here once in a wee while :)

I believe in total honesty so here's the deal.

You're an attractive lady and we share a mutual love of beer and football (that's "soccer" to most of the folk on this board as they don't speak proper English). However, you're not marriage material for me. Not at all.

Any why is that? Because, despite your beauty and cuteness, whenever I think of you I cannot get an image out of my mind of you playing the tambourine with some hippy band in an Irish bar one late, drunken night in Manila. That one moment left me emotionally scarred. There's something incredibly sordid, vulgar even, about that image of shaking the tambourine with willful abandon .... to make matters worse, I don't even think it was in tune with their Mr Tambourine Man song.

I'm starting to feel sick even thinking back to then but, in summary:

- Marriage Material? No
- Mistress Material? Sure thing.

Mistresses have more fun anyway ..... well, that's what they tell me


Gráinne. I like it :).

Our decades are shaped by mere moments. Had you not disclosed the Cl***land thing, then you'd soon by Mrs Ciaran and I'd have bought you a really nice apron and some trendy kitchenware (in fact, already ordered via Amazon - anyone want it at a discount?).

That said, the Cl***land thing would have come out eventually so best to avoid the heartbreak further down the line. I will try hard not to hold this vulgarity against you but I'm not sure if I will be able to, esp. with the baseball season starting soon.

[espressolover83]

*walks away muttering 'so close, so close'*

You're definitely right about that, Gráinne. I am now crushed about my big crush here in the crush thread. Let this now be a lesson to me, I now feel like taking some tambourine lessons... I'm from a very Catholic family, Ciaran - so being a mistress might be something I'd have to think about first. Let me think about it, as long as you promise to behave once you get to meet Sharon.

[little_ms_sunshyne]

Good Morning Crushers and Crushees...

Will you be snagging yourself a Valentine? Anyone planning any grand romantic gestures? I am a sucker for these things!! Or will you continue to admire from afar? I want to see some love connections made via crush thread!

I also want to attend Ciaran's many weddings...Make them destination weddings! lol

How does one snag a Valentine? Should I put some chocolates on a line and throw it out and see what I get back? Perhaps some flowers?? Maybe I should try some heart boxers??

I do not know whether to be flattered at your significant investment in my domestic skills, or ticked off at the Betty Crocker image I've somehow fostered. I see how it is-my name doesn't come to mind after the sentence: "People likely to stay out until stupid o'clock at an Irish bar dancing/karaoke-ing/banging a tambourine/whatever".

Clearly, I have gone awry in your perception of me.

I am as hardy as the winter winds blowing in that d*** stadium on the lake. We who call ourselves natives of Cl***land get used to the gasps, "Noooo's", and backing away at the mere mention of the C-word. Maybe it's DiMaggio's record being broken, or the time the city couldn't pay its own bills, or the Cuyahoga River catching on fire, or the genius who put giant tanks of natural gas in a residential neighborhood, we have surely seen it all. But just to show no hard feelings from the almost-Mrs. Ciaran, I will prepare a kielbasa with your name on it.

[Ciaran]

I also want to attend Ciaran's many weddings...Make them destination weddings! lol

What weddings? This time 24 hours ago, I thought I would be getting married to three women. However, Dixie won't work out as she likes the bad ABBA songs, Espressolover won't work as she cannot play the tambourine and Gráinne (formerly Guihong) won't work as, well, she's from Cl***land.

I made it my resolution to get married during 2013 but my aspirations are crumbling around me. At this rate, I think I'll be marrying Cornelius in Little Rock in September.



Will you be snagging yourself a Valentine? Anyone planning any grand romantic gestures? I am a sucker for these things!! Or will you continue to admire from afar? I want to see some love connections made via crush thread!


Romantic gestures? I'm all for those. Will simply buy someone a plane ticket to London and book a meal in my favourite restaurant here for when she finally arrives. Travelling thousands of miles for a meal sounds a bit crazy but I do find that the best gestures are always under-stated.

[Ciaran]

I do not know whether to be flattered at your significant investment in my domestic skills, or ticked off at the Betty Crocker image I've somehow fostered. I see how it is-my name doesn't come to mind after the sentence: "People likely to stay out until stupid o'clock at an Irish bar dancing/karaoke-ing/banging a tambourine/whatever".


I've never come across a lady before who wants to be associated with banging a tambourine. I hope it's not an euphemism. Don't know if I should be intrigued or scared. I am both.

I don't know of this Betty Crocker woman but she sounds nice - in fact, I think I'm in love with her name.

You still have an option for a quickie Vegas wedding after tea and Italian leather.

Only if we can get an annulment and I can find perfect shoes...

You're on.

Just two things.


Firstly, I'd prefer to get a divorce than an annulment. Annulment sounds so cold and, well, as though we were never married. Divorce would be better. Plus, I think that if I can describe myself as a "divorcee", it adds a certain mystique and can use it to attract some new women into my life.


Secondly, I was re-thinking the whole Vegas thing and it's a bit tacky. I want to get married in Iceland instead. Hope that's okay.


If this is agreeable to you, please let me know and I'll have my lawyer send through the financial status questionnaire plus the forms to sign over all your assets into my name.


I think I finally know what it feels like to fall in love.

This is amenable. Iceland it is. Excellent backdrop for the wedding photoshoot.
I'm thinking fjords and a winter color palette. I wonder if Vivienne Westwood does parkas?

Will have my lawyer forward the proper documentation.I think you would fair far worse in divorce proceedings. No pre-nup correct? ;)

I don't know of this Betty Crocker woman but she sounds nice - in fact, I think I'm in love with her name.


Betty Crocker is a brand name on baking mixes, boxed dinners, flour, and even yogurt. "She" has written a zillion cookbooks, many of which reside on my kitchen bookshelf.

Given my love of all things cooking and baking (note I didn't say talent, just a love), you gave me a most appropos name, Grainne, meaning "grain". Perhaps it should be my screen name. The nationality would finally be right.

[Ciaran]

Okay, so it's 5am here and I had a terrible night's sleep due to nightmares as a consequence of this thread.


I dreamt that I was getting married to Stepfordfemme in Reykjavik, Iceland but everything went wrong.


Firstly, she'd cleaned out my bank account paying vast sums of money on Italian leather shoes. Even worse, she'd had some fancy ass lawyer look over my pre-nuptial contracts and turned the tables on me. Knowing this, I didn't really want to go ahead with the wedding but I had little choice as my mum always loves a good wedding and an excuse to wear a hat.


To make matters worse, Dixie was the photographer but there were almost no photos of the bride and groom as, somehow, Agnetha and Anni-Frid from ABBA turned up to the wedding and got all Dixie's attention. The result? Hundreds of photos of Agnetha and Ani-Fred in their retro 1970s sparkly clothes and no photos of me (I cannot remember if there were photos of Stepfordfemme but, since we're now going through divorce, I'm not too worried).

Gráinne (formerly known as Guihong) was also there as the wedding caterer but had got very drunk the previous night in a Reykjavik Irish bar. This meant that the lasagne was way over-cooked. Somehow Wanda Sykes also came into the dream at this stage to claim that she was the real Betty Crocker - so now I know.


And just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, it turned out that Espressolover had been booked as the musical entertainment for the wedding reception. Even the more patient of the guests had had enough of her banging her tambourine after 5 minutes or so.



All-in-all, a very bad start to married life. Can someone give me the name of a good divorce lawyer? Once I get the divorce sorted out, I think I'm going to join a monastery or a convent.

[espressolover83]

Over the weekend, I spent a lot of time reading through the forums here at BFP, and I was thinking to myself - wish we had something like this here in Manila/the Philippines as I've now added a few of the butches here in my crush-meter! :)

I must say I'm very disappointed with all of Ciaran's running around. Especially after having a panic attack that my straight colleague had possibly killed my oven AND I bought lasagna pasta.

I have in mind to change the lyrics to Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights", something along the lines of ...

"Kiwiiiii, it's me, Ciaran, I'm hungrrrrrryyyy
I'm so bored, let eat me your lasagnaaaa
Kiwiiiii, it's me, Ciaran, I'm hungrrrrrryyyy
I'm so bored, let eat me your lasagnaaaa"

To which I would promptly close and lock them in because he's been fooling around with other grrly's lasagna. :fastdraq:

Kiwi,

I can assure you that the pending future nuptials are strictly for sham purposes so that Ciaran can henceforth be referred to as a divorcee (I can't find the accents on my phone). And for procurement purposes of my love of all things leather.

You can enjoy the added mystique of a previously married Ciaran, as I fear my lasagna recipe may not be enough to keep him around.

Best,
Stepford (Ex-Wife) Femme.

My darling fiancee

I would be most grateful if you could please not refer to our impending marriage as a "sham". Such terminology can alert the authorities who may think we are getting married for nefarious means. This could result in being imprisoned and, whilst being incarcerated in a women's prison has long been one of my fantasies, I think it might be better as a fantasy than reality.

Please refer to the wedding as a "marriage of mutual convenience and honourable intentions across all parties" to protect us from any legal repercussions.


Note that my planning of the wedding continues and two things to update you on. Firstly, it is incredibly cole and snowy in Iceland just now. Therefore, my intention to but you as mamy pairs of Italian designer shoes has been superseded by the need to but you a pair of snow boots. Also, as it is so cold, I would suggest wearing two anoracks instead of a dress for the weddding.

Secondly, I've been busy adjusting our wedding vows to make them very personal and meaningful. In particular, the wording "til death do us part" is changed to "til next Friday". Trust that is okay.

As painful as it is when love breaks our hearts, it is love that once again mends our heart and allows us to love again...:)

Oh I did!!! lol I was home by 4!! This is the earliest I have been home since who knows when....

As for my big Valentine's Day plans...Pizza with my little brother and sister. :) I found the coolest Darth Vader Valentine with light saber lollipops for my little brother! lol

Great company on Valentine's Day, I can't complain. ;)

[WolfyOne]

I've been quiet all day in this thread and just popping in to read posts until now.

I'd like to say, Happy Single Awareness Day to those crushers that are single
and Happy Valentine's Day to those that have crushes and are partnered.

I hope all y'all have had an awesome day :)

i've always heard that love never broke not one single heart. but rather it's the lack of love that breaks all hearts.

I work in a London banking office. Long hours are the norm and I've never noticed any sort of Valentine's Day exodus before but, yesterday at 5pm, when the office would still usually be very busy, the office was fairly spartan due to people going out to celebrate Valentine's Day with their spouse / partner / whatever.

So, on the spur of the moment, my work colleague and I decided to go out on a date together. When I say a "date", it was totally platonic and totally for laughs and smiles .... nothing more. She's 15 years younger than I am, 15 times more attractive and got 15 times more Valentines Cards .... that said, her's were e-cards whereas at least mine was real ;)

Anyway, it was totally just to laugh with each other over being SAD (how terrible to called something Single Awareness Day) but it was actually really fun and I came into work this work with a spring in my step as a result.

[Wrang1er]

I have a couple crushes from this site that I have never even spoken to. However, their wickedly wonderful sense of humor makes them irresistible. Smart and funny...I find it hard not to crush.

The crush is immeasurable and has been for such a long time; it turned into love and now its more of a "madly in love with that person" type deal ~ never thought i'd find that love but now that its mine i'll never let it go :heartbeat:

I know exactly what you mean
For as much as my crush list has more than one, I have that BIG one and it oversees all the rest and leads me
I know the only way for me to move forward one way or the other is to meet this crush face to face
It was going to happen within weeks, but at the moment I have health issues that I'm dealing with right now
I am however not down and out because I have faith and hope
My belief is, if something is meant to be, it will, no matter how long it takes

Happy Saturday Crushers!

I can relate to this too. I have many crushes on many different levels but I do have one or two of those HUGE ones, the ones that push all of the rest aside or lead to having the list vanish

uh huh.. The rest don't matter. There is one that takes precedence over all others.

Oh yes I crush hard ~ tripped and fell, and oh so happy :D

[TheMerryFairy]

Did anyone give anything to their crushes for Valentine's day? Did anyone receive any nice surprises from admirers?

[Ciaran]

Oh yes I crush hard ~ tripped and fell, and oh so happy :D

Due to icy conditions, I tripped and fell when walking on my way to work last Monday. Fortunately, it was still dark so I don't think anyone saw me. However, if that's what crushing leads to, I'm outta here :)


Did anyone give anything to their crushes for Valentine's day? Did anyone receive any nice surprises from admirers?

I'm not a Valentine's Day person in any way, shape or form i.e. I don't want to be told or shown how to be romantic (which, by coincidence, always appear to involve spending money on tacky rubbish).


That said, I did receive a Valentine's Card on Thursday which was anonymised. It was sent from UK and was addressed to an office address that I haven't had for about two and a half years (I am still in the same office but now on a different floor etc). Not very many people I know socially would have my work address but I'm not sure who sent it.


I think I've only received Valentine's Card two times in my life where I wasn't certain who they were from. To be honest, I find the whole thing a bit weird .... I mean if I liked someone, I'd either send them a card with my name in it or I wouldn't bother. But maybe that's just me and I realise I'm a lot more grumpy than most folk around here :)

[little_ms_sunshyne]

Happy Sunday Crushers :)

I received a fantastic femme friend Valentine! That is about it.

I am headed for North Carolina today for a few days of training :/

I think I have done a pretty good job of avoiding cupid or he may be too busy getting to you all right smack on the rear :cupid:

Either way, crushing is a fabulous thing! :seeingstars:

Happy Crushing :hk19::heartbeat:

[WolfyOne]

Not sure what kind of plans cupid has for me, but they didn't happen on the 14th
I'm always the slow one out the gate where love is concerned... I call it cautious

Have a Super Sunday Crushers

[MarquisdeShey]

Grumpy? Not one little bit.(insert sarcasm) Slightly combatitive. Yet, exceptionally charming...smiles..

Aaagggghhhhhhhhh.


The difficulty when someone pays me a compliment is that I find myself needing to be polite to them and less grumpy. That upsets my equilibrium as I get stressed out when I don't have my grumpiness as a comfort blanket.


Thanks a lot for nothing MarquisdeShey ;)

:cigar2: There's an awful lot of mushiness going on in here...

[oksoftbutch]

I wonder if it isn't more comfortable to "know" Valentines is just another day than to have just met someone and all the emotional changes and such are happening. Not so sure I deal with the latter well.....:vigil:

Hiya Crushers,

How is everyone?

Just wanted to drop in and say hello.

Valentines Day...hmmm...yup. There really is a Cupid.

Who knew?

I agree, there is. Though I have been enjoying my floating, I was very lucky to have a couple of very special valentine's this year.

[Contessa]

I did get 2 Vday Cards that I did not expect. Those were nice surprises.

[oksoftbutch]

I gave a sweet card to a lady I am courting...but she isn't on this site....No one gave me anything but that was ok because I spent the time with a love interest.... :rrose:

I am in the same boat. :(

[PoeticWitch]

I have several crushes.. but I like them that way... I am always afraid that if I take them farther then just a crush I will be terribly disappointed. So I put them on their lil pedestal and leave them there for the time being.

But then I am lucky to already have the love of my life a part of my life. Crushes are nice, they make me feel good and kind of alive. But my true love has proven I am alive and brought my back from the brink of disaster. I don't know if any of my crushes could have done that. sorry random thought popped out there.

[MarquisdeShey]

Help me tie 'em up and throw 'em on a boat? We can move into a desert island and make 'em love slaves... Not that I have thought about this to any extent at all!

That comment includes you... *s between you and I, I am sure we could take out a few with minimal damage.

[Daktari]

Aye. Most are already 'crushed and taken'. Those that aren't usually have admirers, so their egos are stroked enough :winky:

:seeingstars:..........:hangloose:......(f)......

Still crushing hard and still loving the feeling of floating along freely.

Slippin' in ever so quietly....I don't know about all this "tie em up throw em in boat, being on an island stuff" First it was arrows now it's this?? No wonder I don't come here often.

I am a pretty open person but I agree, privately admitting crushes works a lot better for me. Unless my friends locally pick up on it, then I start getting more nervous.

All of my crushes have crushed out.. I'm just gonna hang around and enjoy the company of friends.. When it's time, I'll meet a nice girl in real time.. No catfish for me..

Yes, it's almost exactly like that Merry but my definition goes more like dis...

1. Crush-Lite: Intelligent, sexy, witty, and/or good looking chatter who probably only lacks potential due to distance.

Everything is relative. I have a massive crush on Violet Crawley. If she ever met me, she would likely find little in me to attract her. However, in any event, that opportunity will never arise as, not only has she been dead for a hundred years but it turns out that she is a fictional character.

C'est la vie ......

Sure don't but love seeing others crush their crushes though
