When you wish upon a star

I feel like I haven’t addressed this properly.

I have an unrealistic expectation when it comes to my future half because of books and boy bands.

I never wanted a Mr. Darcy. I like the idea of Mr. Darcy, because it’s someone that would challenge me, but I would have been even more verbally abusive than Elizabeth, and probably more like Elisabeth in Pride and Prejudice and Zombie than the original.

I never wanted an Edward Cullen. I like the idea of Edward Cullen, because of his vast knowledge of music, but I wouldn’t want to have someone that is constantly cold and hard as marble. And knowing me, I’d like to mix a drop of my blood in everything just to annoy him and see how long he would be able to hold on until he craves – because playing with fire is the best game, of course.

So many books have the set up where the main male lead is strong, powerful and very overprotective.
To certain extends, that is appealing.
Until the overprotective part.
I like it be able to be my own person, and own myself and whatever I do, it’s not being judge or dictated by anybody.

Fifty Shades would have been my worst nightmare.

Boyband members are the worst because they really are what give you the most unrealistic expectation when it comes to men.

Joey McIntyre, New Kids On the Block.
He was a lanky human and there wasn’t much to him, but now he is just a very hot human.
Nice Carter, Backstreet Boys.
I used to think of him as my world. He is still in my world, but my view of the world has expanded a lot since.

Sakarai Sho, Arashi.
He looked like a thug (a good looking Japanese one, no less) when he went to uni with piercing and punk hair, and graduated top of his class in political science and economic, and became a news anchor on top of everything.

Kato Shigeaki, NEWS.
I wanted to punch his face when I was in uni. He went to uni as an arrogant little shit, graduated top of his class in law, and became an author on top of everything else.

This season of Japanese tv on the other hand, has given you what reality is.

The super smart forensic pathologist was ditched by her fiancé because she works too long hours.
A twenty something year-old just want a simple relationship but can’t find one.
A beautiful and smart teenager thinks she is just a massive mistake that her parents made.
Good looking and top of the class inspector was being looked down by his own father because god older brother and sisters are even smarter.
Beautiful and rich girl with good manners were being bullied by her friends because of what she is.
Newly qualified barrister has no money.
Artistic thirty-something galaxy owner just want someone to spend time with.

The best one?

The top male escort of the Tokyo – not wanted by older woman.

I look at all that and think… I am quite happy living in my own world and in my little bubble.
