To fancy Ser Jorah from Game of Thrones?

Actually maybe this is one for the weird crushes thread in Chat.

After much persuasion from friends I recently started watching GoT from the start and have really got into it. All of my female friends have been harping on about bloody Jon Snow and Robb Stark but quite frankly as conventionally handsome as they are they do very little for me I'm afraid. There is however something very alluring about Jorah, his rugged handsomeness and unfailing devotion to Daenerys.

It's the same actor who played one of Lady Mary's many suitors in an early series of Downton isn't it? I didn't fancy him in that.

Am I weird?

No I love him. He just seems like a nice guy. It's the devotion, like you said Grin DP keeps reminding me he was exiled for selling people into slavery apparently...
I do love Jon Snow though.

Radiatorvalves · 07/04/2015 22:19

Nope. There is something about him... Although his undying devotion to the Mother of Dragons does put me off a bit.

I like his voice. Him on one side, Mark Rylance on the other. Whispering filth. Rylance can even recite lines from Bing if he wants. I'll pretend he's saying something else.

Iain Glen
Oh yes

owlborn · 07/04/2015 22:24

I would. I don't understand why Danaerys insists on running after grunting neanderthals in eyeliner and never seems to notice him.

Yes I think maybe it is the voice, it's very soothing isn't it?

YANBU I would walk over hot coals for Iain Glenn.

Salmotrutta · 07/04/2015 22:37

Iain Glen is actually mine.

So bog off.

It's relieving to see I'm not alone.

I also like Jon Snow, but I don't see why everyone I know seems to fancy him?

Oh, and in real life, Jon Snow is a right short bloke.

LaChatte · 07/04/2015 22:39

Pah! That's nothing, I fancy Iwan Rheon who plays Ramsay Snow/Bolton, now that is fucked up.

Salmotrutta · 07/04/2015 22:40

I don't fancy Jon Snow at all.

He's got greasy hair.

petitepeach · 07/04/2015 22:41

Ooh me too! Can't contain my excitement for series 5!,

Have you met Jon Snow in R/L Salmotrutta?

Is Sean Bean all mine then?

JeanneDeMontbaston · 07/04/2015 22:45

Not that I'd kick Jon Snow out of bed, but he's really not a sexy character. He's a nervous virgin who gets uncomfortable around references to periods, and he's miserable All.The.Fucking.Time.

And no, MrsTP, Sean Bean is not all yours. But I'll share nicely.

MrsTerryPratchett · 07/04/2015 22:46

If I must

All the more Rory McCann for me then.

GentlyBenevolent · 07/04/2015 22:48

emerald I have. He was quite nice. Iain Glen though is gorgeous and lovely and I've been of that opinion for about 20 years, I don't see any need to change horses now. :D
