Again, with the crush thread. Looking back, yes, I can see where I was coming from on some of those, but the latest and greatest is [HGTV’s Income Property’s Scott McGillivray](http://tvguide.ca/NR/rdonlyres/40265F3F-E6BD-4DA8-9571-BCC800BB3B4A/155365/incomeproperty_149.jpg) Dark hair, olive skin, and he can make [this](http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/real_estate/article/0,1000144,HGTV_32662_5939920_13,00.html) into [this](http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/real_estate/article/0,1000144,HGTV_32662_5939920_14,00.html).

A gentlemen known to my friends as Mr. TDH (tall, dark, and handsome) – incredibly attractive and totally out of my league. He’s ten years younger than I, a full professor at an Ivy League school, smart, accomplished in various fields outside his area of academic expertise, and really, really good-looking. I’m trying to decide whether to go along with the “just friends” thing that we’ve got going – he is, in general, excellent company – or whether that’s going to drive me completely freaking nuts. ( **checks again to see if there’s an email from him** ) ---

In between crushes. Just finished a good one, but that’s good and gone at this point. After a spectacular ‘fail’ the last time I was truly and totally overwhelmed out of the blue, I have pretty much avoided romance, but for a fling here and there. I just don’t have the time for anything _but_ crushes, and unrequited crushes can get soul wearing if you let them go on too long… ---

The girl at work who used to be an intern, then disappeared for a few months, then magically reappeared as a fully fledged reporter. She even does that remove-glasses-let-hair-tumble-over-shoulders thing; it’s most distracting for a married man. ---

I am happily not crushing on anyone at the moment. I don’t like crushing unless I stand a chance with someone. And I know I don’t with any celebrities. I hate sitting around wanting what I can’t have. Still, to at least sort of answer the thread, I’ll name one of my largest crushes in the past: Soleil Moon Frye. (And not as Punky Brewster, you pervs :p) ---

Been thinking about the girl who I was madly in love with when I graduated High School, the only person who could have kept me where I grew up. Haven’t thought much about her in years, but I had a dream about her last night. Gorgeous tall blonde, but I was stuck right in the ‘friend’ category. ---

She’s in my Visual Communications class. She’s blond, blue-eyed, willowy, tomboyish, intelligent, with cat-eye glasses and a distracting expanse of lower back she always shows while sitting down. She also has a serious speech impediment: she can’t pronounce _r_ or _l_ at all. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-do-you-have-a-crush-on-right-now/512260.md?page=2)
