to find it amusing that I fancy the pants off DH but not his celebrity alter ego

Because DH is very offended that I don't fancy his Hollywood heartthrob doppelganger and can't see how I can fancy and love him but not fancy the Hollywood hunk.

Clearly this is a bit of silliness but is my DH alone to get the arse over something so petty?

Well, you can't do this and not even tell us who his celebrity doppelgänger is!

Depends who he looks like.

SPILL!

I think personality has a lot of to do with how attractive I find someone. So husband and Hollywood hunk may look the same, but the different personas are what makes attracted to one than the other.

A bit like fancying Legolas but not Orlando Bloom, I suppose

Your DH thinks you mean he doesn't look like said celeb, and is hurt because he would like to think he's super gorgeous.

Is that funny? Confused

OhFlippityBolax · 10/02/2015 18:58

Not a stealth boast at all. I've not exactly been stealthy with it have i Grin

confused that's how I see it. There is no denying they look alike (and no I'm not saying who it is!) just I only fancy a whole person and not just a face on a screen or magazine

I totally understand what you mean. I can fancy the arse off an actor auing a certain role but he can give me the boak playing someone else. It's most likely because I fancy the character as a whole personality and all rather than just the outward appearance.
I fancied dp when we first met but my god he is waaaaay hotter to me now because I like him too.

ThatBloodyCat · 10/02/2015 19:03

I can't possibly comment unless I know who he looks like.

Is it Stephen Fry?

dougierose · 10/02/2015 19:03

Is it Sacha Baron Cohen as Borat?

dougierose · 10/02/2015 19:03

dougierose · 10/02/2015 19:04

Is he a cartoon character? Gru, perhaps?

OhFlippityBolax · 10/02/2015 19:04

I am totally right.

Actually, SBC is rather cute, espec as the French guy in Taladega Nights.

McSqueezy · 10/02/2015 19:05

Erm, ok.

I'll have a guess, is it Mr Bean?

OhFlippityBolax · 10/02/2015 19:07

''is my DH alone to get the arse over something so petty?''

No, many men get the arse over petty crap. It's not an attractive trait. Is he a twat in other areas of his life?

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 10/02/2015 19:45
