What are some reasons you would or would not date a famous person?

1. Lack of privacy is a huge deterrent for me. Dating a celebrity means my love life is out in the open and available for scrutiny.

2. Would- probably be some fun dates because usually famous means rich and there would be experiences that you wouldn’t otherwise have

   Would not- lack of privacy.

3. I’m too insecure and introverted.

   I would not like attention or the lack of privacy.

4. Lack of privacy and dealing with fans/stalkers/paparazzi would make it a deal-breaker to me in most situations. Potentially workable only if the person was “name famous” but not “recognizably famous” so we could still live our lives outside of the public eye.

5. Paparazzi , lack of privacy and angry fans.

6. I’d date Chris Evans specially because he’s fucking hot and I wanna destroy him. It would probably be short lived because he’s super famous. Every other celeb can jog on.

7. Dating a celeb crush sounds fun in theory. Like, I would be floored if I somehow befriended mine and he liked me. But all the horror stories about individual celebs being abusive coming out now make my brain go “nope nope nope not worth it bye.” The shit that so many of these people have been allowed to do to their girlfriends/wives for so long would make Stephan King cringe.

8. Would not. I would like to wear sweats to target and not have my photo splashed all over the tabloids, with people giving opinions about how “trashy” it is wearing sweats to target, and how every woman all of sudden “never walks out the house like that” 🙄🙄🙄

9. My partner is in a band. I don’t have any proof since I would rather not disclose who I am and who he is. But it’s pretty fun until people invade your privacy.

10. The paparazzi pictures

11. I feel like you’d just get all of the attention and none of the benefits, because people don’t have a reason to like you like they do your famous lover. I’d do it for love though

12. I’d date them simply because it’d be hypocritical of me to say no when I’m technically kind of in the public eye from basketball.

13. I’m chronically introverted. Enough reason.

14. I would not want to date a celeb for many reasons :

    1- No privacy, paparazzi.

    2- Getting hate said celeb has crazy fans who are overly jealous.

    3- If it’s a celebrity I knew before dating it would mean I know about him more than he knows about me and I had a parasocial relationship with him and I can’t see such a relationship successfully become a two way relationship.

    4- Not to generalize but many celebrities are entitled, spoiled and such. Especially the very rich, well known ones.

    5- I don’t know if I can deal with dating someone from an entirely different world.

    6- The pressure. Mental illness in celebrities in a known problem. I’m sure their partners suffer from that too and so I can only imagine how stressful it may be. Or him being on edge because his week was filled with interviews and work and such.

    7- Feeling insecure in the relationship. That’s completely on me. I see myself as someone who can become the wife of someone simple and have a simple life. I’m smart but not too much, and average in looks, plus I’m fat. If I imagine myself with someone who’s rich and well known and loved, constantly chased by women probably… I would not be relaxed at all lol

    I can still go on and on and on… Doesn’t mean I don’t have celebrity crushes tho lol!

15. Lack of privacy; my own life sifted and looked through a magnifying glass; “friends” sharing details; fans, stalkers, groupies. Women throwing themselves at the guy.

    I’ve dated very good looking guys. One not only had women coming on to them, but also guys (he worked in the cosmetics industry).

16. I don’t want to be a stepmom of 10 kids..
