Default Too old for celebrity crushes?

I was just thinking about this....Since I was about 12 years old, I've been having these celebrity crushes. Completely normal for t(w)eens, right?

Only thing is, I'm almost 24 now and I still have them. And sometimes they still feel as intense as they did back then. We're talking watching every movie they're in/every TV episode they're in/listen to every song they have made and so on, spending hours online looking at pictures of them, and even feeling a little jealous (!) of their wife/girlfriend/date from time to time. This makes me feel really silly, and I feel like I'm too old (and also too married) to still have these crushes Am I the only one, or is it more normal than what I think?

I don't think it's typical, but at the same time...if you're not hurting anyone, then I think it's fine. I wonder though if you like it because you're craving excitement and you know this is a safe way to get it? This is complete speculation. If this is bothering you (or your hubby) then you might want to just stop the way one would stop eating sugar. You might miss it and it might be hard to do, but it's worth it if it changes your life for the better.

I'm 25 and I proudly have a crush on David Tennant (particularly of him as The Doctor). I, too, am married. It's just something I keep to myself and just enjoy as a silly little crush

Girl, I am 23 years old and have been in love with Justin Timberlake since I was 8-10 years old and he was in N'Sync. He will always have a place in my heart.

I think it's ok to be a fan or/have a crush on/be attracted to celebrities, just so long as you aren't still buying teen bop magazine so that you can hang up posters and kiss them goodnight
