Dan In Real Life Questions

1.       Dan writes a column on parenting advice but has a lot of trouble parenting.  Do you think it’s important to write about what you know?:  Personally, I find the most success in writing when I’m writing about what I know.  I think that the reason behind this is that I’ve felt the emotions that go with the situation.  I also find success in writing about situations that people I’m close with have gone through.  When making up a situation I don’t personally connect with I don’t have the best results
2.       What makes someone a “hottie” to you?: I am really attracted to musicians.  If you can sing or play an instrument I am probably into you.  If someone wrote me a song I would probably fall in love on the spot.  I like people that I can have fun and be extremely stupid with, but also have serious conversations with.  I REALLY like tall guys.  And I love blue eyes.  I’m not too picky with looks usually it just depends on if I like your personality.  But guys that are shorter than me or significantly smaller are not usually my type. 

3.       Dan and Marie aren’t supposed to fall in love.  Is illicit love more appealing to us?: For me personally, illicit love is a lot more appealing.  I don’t know why exactly.  And I realize how messed up it is.  But knowing a relationship won’t work out or knowing there are things standing in the way makes me want them more.  I think it may be due to the fact that if the relationship can’t happen, then nothing can go wrong.  So I build up this perfect idea of what it could be in my head, knowing I won’t get hurt from it because it won’t happen.  But it’s kind of ridiculous my mind works that way.  That I want what I can’t have.  The even more screwed up thing is that when the door is finally opened to what I couldn’t have, I want it less.  Kind of like a “the grass is always greener on the other side” sort of thing.  I’m not saying it makes sense, or its right, but I definitely think illicit love is more appealing.
