It's easy to fall in love with something you can't have and even easier to fall in love with the perfect storybook character. Whether it's the character who starts out as a terrible person, but you learn to love them once they see the light or the hopeless romantic you've loved from the beginning, we all want to date fictional characters. Fictional characters are the easiest to fall in love with because from a book, you can envision them however you like, but in a movie or TV show, you have the exact mental picture to drool over. So here are the fictional characters we wish we could date.
1. Chuck Bass
Well-dressed and treats his girlfriend like a princess--is there more to ask for?
2. Captain America
Because, I mean, superheroes.
3. McDreamy
It's in the name.
4. Nathan Scott
He just never gives up, and even when he does, he doesn't.
5. Augustus Waters
Just read the book.
6. Lucas Scott
Basketball star and wants to be a writer; high school me is fangirling so hard.
7. Jim Halpert
I don't even need to explain this one.
8. Nick Miller
Yeah, he's awkward as hell, but you can't even lie and say you wouldn't date him.
9. Harry Potter
Who wouldn't want to date a wizard?
10. Edward Cullen
Go ahead, deny it all you want.
11. Jacob Black
Maybe if you're not team Edward.
12. Austin Ames
Of course another Chad Michael Murray character.
13. Cory Matthews
Setting standards high since 1993.

He's literally a "super man."

I personally will settle for either.
16. Noah Jr.
"I want all of you, forever, you and me, every day."
17. Jack Dawson
Before he died, of course.
18. Patrick Verona
Heath Ledger in his prime was enough to make a girl drool.
19. Landon Carter
Just watch "A Walk to Remember" to answer any questions.
20. Peeta Mellark
Although I'm Team Gale, this boy is a hardcore romantic.
21. Gale Hawthorne
Team Gale, always.
22. Tobias Eaton
More fictionally known as Four.
23. Tom Hansen
Need I say more?
24. Schmidt
He might be slightly overbearing, but he's such a sweetheart.
25. Prince Charming
He's perfect because he's exactly who you want him to be.
26. Troy Bolton
Or any Zac Efron character for that matter.
27. Ezra Fitz
He's older, damn attractive, and he's got a love for literature.

He's cute, goofy, and so sweet.
