I got the email advising me that someone has a cruch on me, so of course I put my boyfriend on MY crush list, and he thought that was great… BUT he wasnt the one who started it all like I thought.

Which brings me back to d’oh! Who has the crush on me?

Well, it wasn’t me (sorry to disappointed :D), but there have been a couple of threads about this before.

I had this happen, and the way the site works is that you enter in a bunch of names to get a hint. You’ve then got to sign up for various other sites to get more hints. If you don’t, then whoever you entered in will get an e-mail saying that someone has a crush on them.  
The site seems a little scam-ish in that way.

Well, this thing’s going through the SDMB like some sort of cold virus…

I got one, too, but didn’t enter anyone else’s emails.

Okay, now I know what you’re all talking about. [this](http://www.crushlink.com), right?

Apparently nobody has a crush on me.

They must just send them out at random to get people to their site. I got one, and thats the only explanation I can think of.

Not necessarily, Juan…

I got one and I guessed right the first time…but that’s because one of the other candidates isn’t online now…and I didn’t know the other one’s email addy…which you have to enter to see who it is.

And to the unnamed Doper…

Thank you 🙂

No longer necessary, **Astroboy14** old buddy…right after I posted here not one, but two lovely ladies indicated I’m the bee’s knees. And you’ve got **Astrogirl** anyway, so stop whining.

**Astrogirl** is off to Saipan in the AM, and tonight she is out with her co-workers… so I’m left by myself!

Damn!

**Astroboy runs to the fridge for some beer!**

I almost sent one of these things to a guy I had a crush on about three years ago-- it was a different site, though. Given how the thing seems to snowball I’m glad I didn’t! Oh, that, and he was a jerk.

**Sound Effect** : _glugglugglugglug! The sound of poor **Astroboy** drowning his sorrow in beer…_

Notice to all: you may expect more threads along the lines of “I just peed on my foot” soon… unless I go to bed soon…

How YOU doin’? I knew there was a Doper I’d forgotten to add last night. And now I’m at work, where the crushlink site is blocked.

In addition to assorted Dopers I added the redhead who so cruelly shot me down a few months ago; what the heck, maybe she’ll have a change of heart?

And one of my ex-girlfriends, just to mess with her mind.

The site reminds me a little of Six Degrees, with the difference that it’s not needlessly complicated and slow-to-load.

**kellibelli**  
If I had a crush list, you’d be on it.  
You were nice to me on one of my first posts.
