CarrieMpls said:

I still don't know who he is.

PunkMistress said:

This of course, is about the most inaccurate thing I've ever read.

TheVoid said:

there aren't enough zeros in the universe to qualify how infinitely wrong HE. IS!

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

It was hilarious.

You got blamed for 2 of my remarks because I don't think he new how to figure out the structure of the thread. "ball-rest chin" & "butt-hole deserving to be ripped apart."





But seriously. I mean this.
He seems like a nice guy. I'm not longer fascinated by him on a 'let's temporarily stalk a minor celebrity out of boredom' sense, but it's nice from time to time to know these folks are aware they have fans.
Imagine Prince browsing Tame's threads.

I've actually been refraining from posting my latest minor celebrity crush because I can't take anymore of these blog surprises from them.

He originally used my full name and I was like


Perhaps if I used one of my alters

Sorry, we 'torked up" your thread, GirlBros

I wish we'd done Torkellshops.

We still have time.

TheVoid said:

Don't be daft! I love it when threads get... um... Danned.

GirlBrother said:

I like this term.

Anyway...

The mutual love-in has gone into overdrive.

We had a bizarre conversation with a co-worker yesterday, about what kind of men he'd sleep with if he were "forced to." No, I didn't instigate the conversation, he did.

I also logged-on this morning to find a mushy email from him.

I bought him another chocolate milkshake today and he said, laughing, "My girlfriend's going to think I'm having an affair with you." I just replied glibly, "Oh, well." As he walked away with the milkshake, he turned to me smiling and repeated, "Oh, well."

I feel giddy and can't speak properly to him now, without tripping over my words.

GirlBrother said:

is your resume up to date?...because you're swimming in very dangerous waters.

holy shit..."Is this all harmless fun, or will it all end in tears? He was singing 'Say You, Say Me' by Lionel Richie at me today. I think he expected me to join in - but it was just too fucking weird."

GirlBrother said:

once again i repeat (only out of concern 4 u)

this guy might be on some sort of twisted power trip, please b careful. i do hope my inner feelings are wrong

BlackAdder7 said:

I don't think he's out to get me. I really don't.

His flirtiness has now been observed and acknowledged by others, without any prompting from me. I was asked by a male co-worker yesterday, "What's going on between you two? Why does Dan keep serenading you?" I just replied, "Why are you bothered? Do you wish he was singing to you? You're just a jealous hater!"

My work has gotten better. I walk into the office with a smile on my face.

The only thing we could both get into trouble for, is personal emails. He's sent quite a few and I've replied every time. The email he sent me this morning was so nice, I got a lump in my throat.

GirlBrother said:

it's your life, GB, you're able to make your own decisions. to many here, what's going on is inappropriate on the part of your supervisor and you're putting yourself in a position to potentially lose your job. good luck to you..

lafleurdove said:

He just doesn't seem like he's got any ulterior motive, other than being super-nice and super-flirty with me.

Last weekend, I was wary - but now I'm not.

GirlBrother said:

Maybe all the cautionary warnings you're getting are valid, but I say enjoy it.

GirlBrother said:

Well, what did it say!!

PunkMistress said:

agreed! there's nothing like an office crush to make work tolerable

even i'm getting butterflies now

Cinnie said:

Oh. Well, on Tuesday evening I sent him an email (he'd gone home already) asking him for help with something the next morning. It was just a short note, like:



The reply I received when I logged-in yesterday, was pretty much this:



I think that was pretty much it. It was slightly longer - I just can't remember stuff word-for-word.

I feel like I'm being love-bombed.

are there any pics on this thread?

GirlBrother said:

Awww, that's disgustingly sweet.

PunkMistress said:

I know.

Life isn't fair. I wish I'd met him years before he settled down and had a child. With a woman.

He's taken a week off now; going to a log cabin in the Lake District with his wife and daughter. The open air will probably clear his head, and he'll probably be back to normal the next time I see him.

We sat next to each other in a team meeting today. I asked a question at the end, and everybody laughed, except for him. He just turned to me, did this "mock quizzical" gesture with his eyebrows and smiled just enough so I'd see it and no-one else would... I melted.

He may be married... but he don't seem very straight.

I have a somewhat similar situation going on with a classmate

It's a bit annoying



GirlBrother

omg Justin, don't fall in love, unrequited love HURTS
