Who is/was your animal crossing crush?

Shamefully...it was Avery. I do not know why this was. I was so sad when he moved away without saying, that I lay a bunch of seashells on the markings where his house had been and had a windmill built there too. Cringe.

I soon moved onto Ken. Guess I just had a thing for feathery guys back then.
 
When I was in middle school and played wild world I was really obsessed for some reason with Wolfgang, I don't know why but I always had to go every day and hung around him. And wrote him always tons of letters.
 
It has always been Marshal for me :love: I know, I know... very common, so very not original.

But truly, I instantly fell in love at first sight when he randomly plotted his house in my town. I was new to the franchise (and Marshal was new too), so for a long time I wasn't even aware of how much popular he actually was! Not until I joined the forums at least.

I cried a river and was actually depressed when Marshal accidentally left. I had been sad over other villagers leaving before, but nothing compared to this. When I found someone willing to let him go, I offered all my bells to that person (700 at that time), every single one of them, for the chance to adopt him. That's how desperate I was to get the little marshmallow back with me.

I never lost him again after that :giggle: Marshal has been my hosta- I mean, my BFF since then!
 
I mean, I can't say I have a crush on a digital animal... but, I can say I find molly pretty cute. And I've alwats enjoyed Eunice quite a bit, until New Horizons.

*cries and screams*
 
I would say probably Wolfgang or Roscoe. I don't think I have a literal crush but I think they would translate into cool guys lol. When I was a kid I did have a crush on the fox cartoon character from Robinhood, but I guess as an adult it doesn't translate as well for me. :)
 
I had a huge crush on Ankha back in the days. I thought she was really cute and I would send her letters telling her how much I loved her ... she's always been a part of my town no matter what game, so I think she acknowledged 5-year-old me's confessions, pft!
 
I love Zucker. He’s always been my favorite and when I first saw him I thought he was so cute. I wrote him two letters a day in New Leaf just to tell him how much I cared about him and thought he was a really swell pal! I’m not sure if it’d go as far as a crush or anything but he’s my best buddy!
 
Boone.

I was 9 years old, he moved into my town. It was love at first sight, I knew I had to befriend this gorilla. He quickly became my crush, I wanted to marry Boone, I would die for Boone.. until he decided to move away. He asked to leave, I accidentally clicked yes. Panicked, I turned back time but it was no use. He was in boxes and the next day he would move far far away, never to return to my town ever again. I internally screamed. “NOOO.” I couldn’t believe my beloved gorrila, my best friend, was moving away. After that, I did the only thing I could do. I went to The Roost and cried. I was heartbroken.

And that kids, is how I got my heart broken for the first time… by a virtual monkey.
 
I was an older teenager (think like 15+) already when the first Animal Crossing came out stateside so I was a little too old to get any crush on the villagers. I mostly remember being annoyed at how rude they all were, in stark contrast to how a lot of people think the villagers are a little too nice in modern titles!
 
I don’t seem to have a crush on any of the villagers. I do make up stories for them of them having crushes on each other. Same thing with my playable character and other playable characters.

I don’t think this counts as a crush, but I thought it was cute when Kapp’n flirted 😂
 
when i was like 7 and playing wild world, i loved wolfgang so much lol i definitely had a lil crush on him

i definitely don’t crush on any of them now but i will always have a soft spot for wolfgang <3
 
in wild world i had a crush on butch, sometimes i'd roleplay and pretend he was my boyfriend 🤦‍♀️
 
for sure Isabelle in NL (not v original I know!)
But the way she was practically in love with your mayor in NL was super cute & she worked so hard omg.
