In the book Becoming Edward, a guy dresses up like Edward Cullen to get a girl. Would you date a guy like that or run a mile?

No, but not because he's emulating Edward. I'd just rather date a real person, not someone pretending to be a character.
If he was genuinely like Edward, sure, I guess.

Well, yeah... maybe if I was into domestic violence or just having every single aspect of my life controlled.
HEEEEEECK NO. I would run to another galaxy. With the Doctor. Because Time Lords are hotter than sparkly vampires.
I wouldn't date a wannabe in general

I wouldn't date Edward to begin with XD I would date a straight Tyler Oakley
I don't think it's attractive to try and be someone you're not.
Of course! Then I could say he was my 'bling' instead of wearing necklaces and stuff...SO FRWAKING SHINEY!
I saw the title of this discussion, and the first thing i thought was 'Becoming Edward' :D
And probably, to answer your question.
Have you read it. I have a paperback copy- and hope to read it soon :)

If someone isn't comfortable enough being themselves and is more comfortable being someone else, then I question all their motives. Not just their choice in people to emulate.
So, no. I want someone who is true to themselves.

Can't stand wanna be posers. Look the way you want and act the way you want because you really like it but not because you think you will be cool like the one you think is cool.

I would in a heat beat. I always compare guys to him, and if I found a guy like him I would cry.
Well, it seems like he's not so much a wannabe as he is trying really hard to get a girl, seems like he just has a lesson to learn (probably around the climax of the book)So it's not THAT big a deal.
But no, I would not be attracted to someone emulating Edward Cullen as I am not attracted to anything about Twilight.
Also since when do straight men read Twilight - and then get influenced by it? Is this scenario really a threat?
Is it a commonly unfulfilled fantasy of young men to fight over a cardboard cut-out of a girl with another dude who happens to be an age-old enemy?
Though I suppose it's no more shallow than the traditional "Rescue the princess in the castle" format of many games and other stories.

Hah not meaning to be narrow minded or shallow but it just seemed to me that the only appeal of the story was in wish fulfillment, since the wishs pre

Thing is, the wonderful thing about books is people get different things out of them, and interpret them in different ways. I read it less for the rom
