Ah, the nostalgia of youthful crushes! Now that I’ve had some time to reflect, I’m ready to unveil a few of my most embarrassing infatuations from back in the day. Buckle up for a trip down memory lane!
-
Timmy
My first crush? Timmy from the whimsical world of Magic Land. Honestly, I can hardly recall the plot, but I do remember his unforgettable bowl haircut. Bowls were definitely a fashion statement in that universe! -
Shawn
Fast forward a few years, and I found myself head over heels for Shawn Cassidy. With his singing prowess (at least from my seven-year-old perspective), acting skills, and undeniable charm, he was the total package. My heart took a hit when he tied the knot in 1979, leaving countless girls, including me, heartbroken. -
Mason
After mourning Shawn’s marriage, I stumbled upon a show called Galactic Guardians, featuring a band of teens with extraordinary abilities. I immediately gravitated toward Mason, the fearless leader of the group. I was obsessed, even though my classmates didn’t share my enthusiasm for this short-lived series. A quick search online revealed a whole fanbase that loved Mason too. If only the Internet had been around back then—maybe I wouldn’t have felt so alone! -
Johnny
It would’ve been odd if I hadn’t developed a crush on a character from The Outsiders. I particularly adored Johnny Cade, who wasn’t just your typical “greaser.” He was a deeper character, portrayed by the charming C. Thomas Howell, who had a way of tugging at the heartstrings. -
Jake
Then there was Jake from Sixteen Candles. Jake was the quintessential high school dreamboat that made my teenage heart race. His character, along with the others from those iconic John Hughes films like Blane from Pretty in Pink and Andrew from The Breakfast Club, set my expectations for high school romance sky-high. Thanks a ton, John Hughes—your movies still hold a special place in my heart! -
Michael
During my college years, I found myself infatuated with Michael Steadman from thirtysomething. I didn’t grasp that the show was a glamorized take on adult life until much later. Now, as I approach “fortysomething,” I still feel a bit lost, though thankfully without Michael’s angst. -
Felix
Ah, the 90s—a time of graduate school, eclectic fashion, and a big crush on FBI Special Agent Felix from The X-Files. He was the epitome of charm, wit, and mystery (not to mention his devotion to his partner). In a twist of fate, the series concluded the same year I got married. Coincidence? Or something more cosmic? As Felix would say, “I Want to Believe” it was meant to be.
Since those days, I’ve had my share of crushes (think Daniel Craig as James Bond or Tim Riggins from Friday Night Lights), but none have sparked the same level of excitement. Perhaps that’s because I’ve found genuine love, making those earlier crushes seem so… flat.
