Okay, i’m 21 and I recently graduated from college and had 3 bfs, but I seem to get a crush on my officemate... I wonder, am I too old to get a crush or a zit on my face?

You're never too old to feel like a school girl all over again....

HELL NO! Even if I’m not a teenager anymore, I can still have crushes and oh yeah zits..... That’s the beauty of  life. I know its just a crush because I admire the guy and I’m not planning to do anything about it... why? Because the guy has a girlfriend and the guy is my officemate... I don’t want any complications at the office... I have too much drama in my personal life that I wouldn’t dare include more drama from the office. BTW, the zit is caused by my wild hormones... got PMS.

HOW DID EVERYTHING STARTED...
When I was just new in our company, he was the one who distributes the modules that we, the programmers should code. At first, I didn’t quite notice him for his looks because I was looking at someone else, but as time passed by and I became friends with a lot of people from our department, I realized that he is quite cute... And I mean cute by my standards...

When he was teaching me what to do, one of our officemates took a picture of the two of us (my crush and me...) At first it was nothing, but my guy officemates passed on the picture and told everybody that it was a scandal at the office {it was really a joke and the picture was innocent...} SO I was just letting things pass but whenever he is near, I can smell that damn cologne... and believe me, he smells really good, the kind of smell that arouses you.... my goodness. I know that he is a great guy and even though at times he treats me as one of the guys, I know that he is a gentleman. You see, every morning, our team including my crush eats breakfast at the food court in our building... We talk about various things, from the job, home life, love life, and even sex life... I like it when he talks about sex, because the conversation is not perverted, on the contrary, he really gives great advice even if its a little green  at times... I like it when he tells me that I should talk to my mom and show her that I’m all grown up. I like it when he approaches me and touches my shoulder. I like it when he Ims me and we flirt a little. I like it when he kids around and we share food... I like it when he acts all brotherly...

There was an incident earlier when I was surfing the internet, he appeared behind my back... I was a bit surprised but I still smelled that damn cologne... I didn’t know that he was looking over my shoulder and was trying to tell me something. He was asking if he could view a code that we did months before... I said okay and I let him explore my computer... to my embarassment, he stumbled upon a personal folder of mine which contains the pictures of guys that I am seeing (yuh, i am not exclusively dating anyone at the moment... ) and some other pictures of our friends. SO in short, I was embarrassed and he was asking who they were or if they were my ex. I told him the truth...:D hehehee... He also knows that I like Jason... the six pack guy... He even joked that if the guys would hurt me or make a fool out of me, especially the six pack guy {Jason}, I’ll just call him and he would gather his friends and beat the crap out of Jason... as if! Of course it was a joke, but I can see that he acts like a big brother {though he is only 23}.... and I do appreciate it... Damn, while he was even browsing my computer, I could still smell again that damn cologne... Hmm.... My goodness, I hate that damn cologne, it does all those crazy things to my senses.... DAZED... get a hold of yourself....  

So why not tell him that I have a crush on him... Well its just a crush.. It’ll pass. Second he has a girlfriend, and from our conversations, I know that he is happy with his girlfriend, and he even told me once that he found the one... And I’m a little jealous but at the same time really happy... I just wish I could be with someone just like him...I don’t even know if he likes me like that...Last, he knows I work hard but I play harder and I don’t want to ruin my office life... 

For now... I am contented by being his friend and smelling that damn cologne... It’ll pass, I know it will. For now, it ain’t bad to fantasize about him just a little. Its just a little crush.... no harm there.

So here’s a video entitle Just A Little Crush by Jeniffer Paige... which really expresses how I feel. Enjoy.

Cheers!

    hehehehehehe crush? i know what you feel is more than that its the animal instinct in you to have a mate! youre attarcted to his smell which means you longed sexual desires with this guy. okay i sound really stupid cuz thats what i feel with my crush. i could feel if he is near because of his fuckingly addicting scent!!!! and when i touched his hand, dear god i'm melting. hehehehe just keep it cool and youre right it will just pass. just dont hope too much you'll get heartbroken in the end. that happened to me. keep blogging!!!
  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 05, 2006....
    Yeah! I know It'll pass. heheh... I think this is more of a feeling of lust rather than a simple crush... I will not get too attached... or better yet, I could buy that cologne so that I could be immune from that smell! hehehe

    Cheers!
  • silverwhisper said on Dec 05, 2006....
    you know, i'm in my 30s. and now and again, i still get zits. and yeah, even though i'm deliriously happily married, i also get crushes. i don't think you ever get too old for these things. well, at least crushes.

    ed
  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 05, 2006....
    yup. there is really nothing wrong with crushes! :D

    hi silver, thanks for dropping by! :D

    life and romance... things you can't separate in a woman's world

    i had a crush on my officemate for years! I was married already, and he was dating seriously. Eventually the crush faded and was replaced by a fantastic friendship. I went to his wedding! And my husband and I even took a vacation with the two of them!
  • MissMimi said on Dec 05, 2006....
    I was fifty, and years married, when I developed the biggest crush of my life. I wouldn't trade the way that felt for anything.
  • missb said on Dec 05, 2006....
    Oh no, never too old for crushes. I have a crush on johnny depp right now :)

    Cheers ;)

    Crushes and zits never go out of style. Beware the office flirtation, though, dazed - it can lead to unwanted gossip which can get out of hand....
  • gingersoul said on Dec 05, 2006....

    I had several crushes in different office places...believe me, it will never pass.

    Crushes do make working life more bearable. I got a horrible one for a guy while i was working at Halliburton. The most gorgeous piece of American meat i have everput my eyes on upclose.... I still have to meet another American guy handsome like him. But he was very into his marriage so we flirted while i was assigned there but nothing ever happened. *Sigh*

     
    So crushes never go away (luckily) and so do zits (unlickily)...i still have them and i am way beyond that age...lol...

    Missb..hands down.....Johnny is mine! ...lol...

    The best pleasure on earth! No generation boundaries. I remember my grandmother, bless her soul - passed away over the age of 90, had still a crush as she was in her 80´s! No zits anymore, though...BWAHHHHAHAHHA.

    Sorry, [hiccup]...I am not aware if she had still crushes at the age of 90, left for abroad, could not do anymore bonding.  She painted her toes red until the day she died.

    My crushes are now my virtual friends. I like `em cute and smart.

    No harm, it´s the spice of life. I´m going to be married for 13 years next year in January. My hubby always know who my crush of the month is !
    ; )

    Wohooo!

    I think my mom's eye doctor is sooooooooooooo crushable!  He reminds me of a cross between a teddy bear and an elf!

    There are actors, musicians, etc. whom I've had a crush on from way back.  Some of them are Buck Owens, Don Knotts, Roy Clark, Frankie Valli, Mark Lindsay, Eric Burdon, Charley Pride, Keith Hamilton Cobb, Henry Winkler, Jonathan Frid, Pernell Roberts...and the list goes on and on and on...

    I'll be 54 in a few days and still get zits.  Not many, but, perhaps, one or two at a time on my face--but they're so much fun to pop and watch their contents go flying and hit the bathroom mirror!  LOL

  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 05, 2006....
    hi kalowkohan. yup love and romance is almost always in a woman's life. heheh, especially in my life, oh boy hehehe :D

    secretlife. wow, that's nice! I already met my officemate's girlfriend and she seems nice enough. hhehe My officemate acts all nice and behaved when he is with his girlfriend, unlike when he is with his pals and me, well that's a different story heheheh :D

    MissMimi. I think I had the biggest crush when I was back in college and till now, I still thought about him... I wrote all about him in my previous post, The One Who Got Away.  Hmm....

    missb. yup, i agree. Oh yeah, I have the biggest crush on Adam Brody and Ben MacKenzie.

    BlogObsessed. Thanks girl. I know what you mean. I've been the topic of hot gossip a lot of times back in the days.. though i don't want to be one at the office.

    gingersoul. yup, zits and crushes are part of life... Thankfully my zit is almost invisible now.. Thanks to water and some cream.

    paperbackwriter. wow, congratulations! I like my crushes witty and cute. Oh and I like them to smell nice too! :D hmm... Anyway, I now know his brand of cologne {wink}

    NotReallyAnonymousAJ. hehehe! Yup, thankfully my zits are teeny weeny and barely visible. I usually have a zit or two at my temple whenever I have PMS.

    Thanks Everyone! Cheers! More power!

     
  • momsrock said on Dec 05, 2006....

    I never really had zits or pimples until I had kids. I love snuggling with them when they are sleeping and unfortunately their heads get too sweaty for my skin to take! I won't give up snuggling though!

    As far as crushes... I have a crush on my doctor...as most of you know. So, no, you don't outgrow them!

    Ed, I am surprised you have crushes though. :)

  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 05, 2006....
    hi momsrock. I never really had major acne on my face... A zit or two probably... The worst was when I had a breakout a day before going out on a date... ahem... oh well... there was still wit and charm and he got captured by it muhahahah.....

    Hey anyone wanna be the object of my ever dying crushing?! heheh LOL

    Cheers
  • whoisit4 said on Dec 05, 2006....
    Yeah... crushes.
    Been there... Am there...

    Acne? Even a forty-something still gets a zit from time to time - sometimes in disgusting places.
  • momsrock said on Dec 05, 2006....
    I'm sure it was your wit and charm! :) I'm convinced my sparkling personality causes all kinds of men to have crushes on me...LMAO just kidding.
  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 05, 2006....
    whoisit4. yup, crushes are part of life... unfortunately so are zits too....

    momsrock. atta girl! heheheh yup I think it all depends on how you carry yourself..

    Cheers
  • missb said on Dec 06, 2006....

  • momsrock said on Dec 06, 2006....
    I am... I am surprised you look at women other than your wife. ; )
  • silverwhisper said on Dec 06, 2006....
    i look from time to time. it's the touching part that i avoid. :>

    ed
  • momsrock said on Dec 06, 2006....
    lol...yes, definitely no touching!  I'm just surprised...who was your last crush? Or aren't you in the mood to share? Just curious...
  • dazed_and_confused said on Dec 06, 2006....
    When Peter Gallagher was younger, like back in the movie, "While You Were Sleeping", I had the biggest crush on him heheh... but since Ben and Adam are on the same show, the OC, they got most of my attention. :D

    But I still like Peter Gallagher, even if he now plays the father figure hehehe

    Cheers Y'all!
  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....

  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....

    you do? and here i was thinking i was a freak! :>

    ed
  • gingersoul said on Dec 07, 2006....

    Ed...you still have a crush on her!!!??  lol..good grieve....

    Yes, i noticed that too..she seems having bigger boobs because she is gaining weight, my dear. Ot she is pregnant or she is definetely eating too much...LOL
    Still cant get over that voice.....oh, imagine being in bed with her and at the moment of the orgasm she screams: yummi-o!!!.
    And you would say..ditto!!!   ...lol....

    Missb...uh uh (shaking my neck and my finger like Beyonce')  forget it, sistaw.......Johnny and i have a torrid secret love affair since the time of Edward scissorhands...he used to cut my hair in such a tender way.......lol...

    Dazed....now i have a side shorty fro Daniel Craig

    Paper....my ex knew perfectly well my helpless crushes for Prince and Johnny Depp....he never understood the first one, though....lol...

  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....
    GS: o god yes! i'll always feel that way about her...and let's just say that it's probably me that's gonna have cause to be saying "yum-o"... :>

    ed
  • gingersoul said on Dec 07, 2006....
    Ed, i saw her newly wed hubby..he is a hunk....bet he is used to that yum-o kudos she gives....and, btw, you are too modest.....lol... hear this....i watch FN with my daughter...we love it...so one day we were watching your Rachel in NYork for the $40 meal a day ...and her hubby was with her...my innocent one commented in this way (i swear): Geez, mom, she is so chirping all the time. How can he stand her? Doesn't he want to shut her up once in a while?" Oh, the pure ones!...lol... I recon you dont like any other ladies in FN,is it correct?
  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....
    GS: they began running episodes w/ nigella lawson, who i gotta say makes me hungry in several ways...i'm not generally big on giada de laurentiis, something bugs me about her...oo, and ellie krieger is actually quite handsome. they used to run a show, the best of , in which one of the co-hosts, jill cordes, knocked me out.

    ed
  • gingersoul said on Dec 07, 2006....

    Oh yes...if you remember i already suggested you Nigella once as a great substitute crush for your Rachel...Nigella at least is voluptous and sensous...

    I agree with you about Giada...she seems more the good preppy girl always in the first row...the cheerleader one...even though in an Italian magazine i read something that really made me look at her in a different way: Giada has been heavily sexually harassed when she was younger by her stepdad. You said once that you liked her Italian mom more than Giada hersef..well, her ex husband, a rich American guy, almost raped Giada and her sister. Her mom is promoting a book about the whole DeLaurentis family. Go figure, eh?

    What is hiding behind that big smile!

    I saw again Jill Cordes as a judge at one holiday cake competition just two day ago...she is a very nice woman.

  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....
    but it's that very wholesomeness about rachael that i like, you see...b/c then it's even naughtier when in my head she does the most shocking things! :D

    ed
  • gingersoul said on Dec 07, 2006....

    You little pervert.....lol...

    so Nigella is too out there for you, got it.... while you like to think that Rachel might indeed hide a very well kept secret to whip you up like a meringue......lol....

    Its the contrast you find exciting....i get that with the cute-good boy look that some guys have...
     
    do i have to come to the conclusion that your wife might share with Rachel the same innocent look while hiding a naughty but well hidden self?....:-)

  • silverwhisper said on Dec 07, 2006....
    GS: ask me no questions and i'll tell you no lies... ;>

    i think nigella's very sensual and it would be great fun to enjoy that garden. there's a sense of "lush"-ness to nigella that i find very appealing.

  • NotReallyAnonymousAJ said on Dec 07, 2006....

    Momsrock--girlfriend, we've gotta talk!  I'll be over to your port...in short, my first crush just happened to be a doctor, and I was only three years old at the time it happened!

    He's a writer, too!

    He's also about 80 years old and married!

    Of course, he was only in his late 20s at the time he operated on me--but he was married!

    But it wasn't that kind of a crush, of course.

    He was divorced (this is his second marriage) by the time that I was 30, and I wouldn't have minded going out to dinner with him, even though I wouldn't say that I was actually in love with him, but we were both writers and caring people, so it would have been nice.

    Oh yes!  Did I mention that he was--even the last time I saw him when he was in his sixties, and he, no doubt, still is--sooooooooooo easy-on-the-eyes!?!
