Name a fictional character and I'll tell you three reasons I wouldn't want to date them.

Date: 2012-08-29 03:55 pm (UTC)2.) I love a man who can cook (especially since I can't), but what if that spoo gives me food poisoning?
3.) His followers scare me. If he ever writes me a letter, which, what with him being a great writer, I would hope he would, they'd steal it and treat it as a holy relic. And/or kill me.

Date: 2012-08-29 04:07 pm (UTC)1.) She's married to a possessive man with an ever growing ego and death score, and by now nearly zero scruples. Mind you, the fact that the only person she dated outside of her marriage so far ended up in a hospital is actually one of the few things that absolutely aren't her husband's fault, but still. RISKY.
2.) Recently, she started to smoke again. I'm a dedicated non-smoker.
3.) Her son, a sweet kid of whom the truth about his father is kept, would blame me for breaking up his parents and guilt trip me with his accusing glance. And then he'd terrorize us with bad music.

Date: 2012-08-29 05:39 pm (UTC)1.) She likes her wine; I don't. We might annoy each other when she wants to booze it up and I remain sober.
2.) Being a psychologist, she'd probably figure out things about me I don't want to know myself. And say them out loud.
3.) London is great for a visit, but I'm really not sure whether I'd want to live there (*eyes living cost*)

Date: 2012-08-29 03:58 pm (UTC)2.) If there's an emergency that makes me jump out of the bed and grab the next pair of shoes, and they happen to be hers instead of mine, I'd tear my ankle trying to master the high heels.
3.) There is that pesky blood or her hand and the fact she's a tyrant. Not a problem when she's on my tv screen, but in my actual life I try not to get into bed with oppression, so to speak.

Date: 2012-08-29 04:01 pm (UTC)2.) Maybe I'd be actually dating her doppelganger. Not that I'd object in principle, but it makes "no, I'm sure we agreed to marathon Breaking Bad next, not The Wire" conversations a bit difficult.
3.) If I'm really unlucky, she'll discover I'm a Cortexiphan experiment, too, and then my life span would be nearing its end.

Date: 2012-08-30 08:17 am (UTC)1) dating Diane would disqualify me from writing her biography or at least profile her in the papers when she inevitably becomes head of the Supreme Court
2) I would feel inhibited in the presence of so much awesomess
3) I'm high maintenance, she's high maintenance. This would be a problem!

Date: 2012-08-30 08:37 am (UTC)I love #1; definitely not a hindrance I had ever considered. As for #2 -- well, as they say here: duh! Obviously, I also get #3 on a very personal level. ;)
