I was speaking with a friend of mine, and She realised that most of the people she's been attracted to have been illustrated as a concept: often as part of a singular narrative.
For example, she's liked the 'bad boy', the 'father figure', the 'innocent gentleman' etc etc.
It made me think of situations in which I've romanticised people as concepts; ideals which are attractive at that point in time. The concept of the unnatainable- lusting after a girl who's in a relationship for example. The concept of the experienced, the less experienced, the damaged etc. What do you think about this? Have you ever wanted someone because they fit a particular ideal? Do you believe lust\love to be far more arbitrary than that? Thanks for any input
