I have an IRL crush on a doper who shall remain nameless. Thus far I can’t tell if he likes me back is just being really nice. Maybe if he doesn’t run away screaming when he reads this, he’ll play his bassoon for me. 😉

I seem to missing an important ‘or’ in the above post.

I have a crush on someone too - let me give you a hint: He’s smart, hot, funny as hell, a little shy, and has the drop-dead sexiest voice that I’ve ever heard. And he likes to talk more than I do! _sigh_ I’ve met my match.

He knows who he is. 😉

Also, if PLDennison wasn’t happily married to a gorgeous redhead, I’d have an itsy bitsy crush on him for being so damn cute.

Hey! Nacho4Sara, your crush sounds like the guy I have a crush on. :mock glare: Your crush doesn’t like to cook, does he?

Don’t be messing with my sweetie, 'k?

Okay, the “snicker!” after my assertion about redheads was meant to denote that there are indeed several fine lookin’, sweet talkin’, atttiude havin’, redheads on this board, and one in particular that I really dig.

And **jjjfishe**? I had to say something, and I thought that Chrome Boner award was funny. It’s always good to say something funny to a girl, right? In any case, I had to convey that when I look at your picture, I can’t think anything but naughty thoughts. It’s fortunate that you happen to be really cool, insofar as I know you, as well. And thank you for looking upon my pictures with minimal laughter, you are too kind.

**Ruffian** , you must know… My older sister _is_ 27, and she’s gorgeous. You just remind me of her, that’s all. Teaching, likes horses, same color hair, stuff like that. And to answer your question, I am only 24. And you know what? I was in Vegas recently, and saw a horse race in one the sport books. You know which horse won? …Lexicon. Shag, baby, yeah.

My sweet **Silver Fire** , would that I had seen your sig when it was hammered out by my meager wordsmithing. Sadly, I missed it, and named you a liar. Can you ever forgive me?

**Persephone** is right. I am only attempting a feeble jape with my apparent lack of notice for redheads. It’s only that they are so prized that even though they be numerous they still seem precious and rare.

I am currently “crushless”, seeing as how my last(real life) one ended quite badly, and ended with a pit thread posted through tears. 😛 Luckily, I’m well over that one.  
So, anyone want to volunteer to be my new crush?

I’ll be your new crush. I’m a good one, too. Just ask whoever has a crush on me, or who is recovering from one.

Just let me know what you want me to do…

I’m looking for a crush, too, but need someone who won’t reject me horribly. My ego has taken quite the beating the last year.

I’m available to be crushed (especially by someone wearing oversized clown shoes 🙂 ).

I’m crush free!

_Sigh_

Right now I am wearing Dr Marten’s boots (steel toe capped natch),orange socks and an orange T shirt. Sounds like it’s a match made in Heaven (or MPSIMS). Is my being English a drawback?

Man, it BLOWS when y’all say, “I have a crush…on someone from here…but I AIN’T TELLIN’!!”

Talk about a bunch of teases.

Sheesh.

Hamdryad, we just want to keep you guessing. This is worse than 7th grade.
