7 reasons not to want a vampire boyfriend

It's because I don't get TWILIGHT. I know it's a contemporary classic. Hard as I try, though, I can't understand why anybody would want a vampire boyfriend. They can't keep you warm at night and I don't even want to imagine what it's like to kiss one.

So, here are 7 reasons not to want a vampire boyfriend:

1. Ashton Kutcher is not a vampire.
2. Josh Holloway is not a vampire.
3. Ryan Gosling - not a vampire.
4. Josh Lucas - not, either.
5. Wentworth Miller - ditto.
6. 
   Ashton Kutcher - just have to mention him twice.
7. And, most importantly, who wants Edward when you can have Jacob?

10 Best Fictional Boyfriends

Chelsea Fagan compiled this list of 10 Best Fictional Boyfriends. While I don't agree with all her choices, I think her Number 3, Aidan Shaw of Sex and The City, beats Big hands down. I would also put the same actor in my list of top 10 as Chris In The Morning from Northern Exposure.

So, my own list, in no particular order:

1. Christ Stevens, Northern Exposure
2. Aidan Shaw, Sex and The City
3. Ed Chigliak, Northern Exposure
4. Gale, Hunger Games
5. Reacher, books by Lee Child
6. Sawyer, LOST
7. Charlie, LOST
8. Rhett Butler, Gone With the Wind
9. Sam Vimes, the Discworld series
10. Burr, Gods in Alabama
