Fandom Boyfriend

[ithildin]

Been meaning to ask thoughts on this term. I see it used a lot, and I sort of get it, but I don't [g] So what does the term 'fandom boyfriend' mean to you? Is it your favourite character? The one, if he were real, you'd want as a boyfriend? Or the one who'd want to be your boyfriend? Or is it more along the lines of a friend who's a boy? None of the above?

Silly question, but I realize I'm not really sure what it's supposed to mean :)

I've never used the term myself, but when I see it, I take it to mean that it is the guy who you wish was your boyfriend. And since most people fancy more than one person/character, it's the one who you currently fancy the most. For a long time I would have said it was Ezra, but right now it's Daryl Dixon. :)
