Movie Characters I Want To Date: Boof

Since I’m not dating real people, I came up with this idea a couple of days ago. I think I’ll make this an ongoing thing that I’ll fall back on when I have nothing to blog about. This has nothing to do with the attractiveness of the actress playing the role (although it’s a movie so, odds are, they’re attractive). Certain elements of the character appeals to me romantically and sets unrealistic standards for real people who don’t have the benefit of rewrites.

Character: Lisa 'Boof' Marconi

Film: Teen Wolf

Actress: Susan Ursitti

Attractive Qualities: Boof is the perfect embodiment of that girl was like your best friend but was not-so-secretly in love with you (I say "not-so-secretly" because everyone knows it but you...at least consciously). Does she make you feel guilty about liking other people? Nope. Does she even talk to you about and actively help you try to get with people that you want to get with? She knows you'll come around someday. That what you two could have would rival anything you had with middling little crushes...Until you actually get together and it's a mess and you realize that you should have stayed friends after all but now it's too late. But hey, why focus on the negative?
