Has your love for Arashi raised your standards?

yup, that's happen to me. everytime i saw a guy i would compare them with my jun. and it took my standard higher and higher, to the point that seems like i won't and i can't love anyone else but jun, or at least, sho. how come???? ~sigh~

honestly, it hurts. yabai yo..

ahh..i guess i was picky when it comes to guys since...forever.
my friends always tease me how i show no efford to get a bf..
i guess, it's because i was hoping for a guy with a great character that matches all characteristic from all the guys(arashi) unsure

so i think my standards were raise a few bars higher.. wink

I actually feel like I know exactly what you mean by your post about having too high standards because of Arashi, dulcidine. I always subconsciously and even consciously compare everyone to them (or Jun).

Nevertheless, I always have been more of a single person, because my standards are high as such, but now when I compare everyone to Jun, it doesn't help much....I should probably become a nun WTH

But I wouldn't be able to drool there...not a good choice wink

It's weird because I know that if I met Jun in the real life, and I didn't know who he is, I most likely wouldn't give him a chance because I don't find him attractive physically, I just love his personality.....yet...depends on what we would talk about. I am weird....and I am sort of glad that I am not the only one who is facing the problem, yet it kind of disturbs me that I have this problem at all.

^ Hahaha I know how you feel.

It's more of a prestige thing I think. While I'd never consider dating Nino, or Ohno in real life if they were just the average-joe's down the street, their status makes them appealing (well of course, Ohno and Nino's personalities are really great too). And in this sense, I guess my standards have become really high XD

It's a tad unhealthy, since I seem to be turning down any suitors I get confused

But I'm hoping it's just a phase I'll grow out of eventually. I'm only 19 after all, no need to be looking for a soul-mate just yet :P

I have this phase for 25 years already and Jun isn't helping much Eh?

Maybe it varies from person to person. I used to be really obsessed with Kanjani8, and my standards at the time were really high (I was looking for my own Subaru I guess) but eventually, I fell out of my K8 phase, and was back to crushing on regular guys I knew.

But then I found Arashi, and now I'm back to square one. I'll still date around occasionally, but nothing long-term. I don't know why I do this XD I know that I've got zero chances with anyone famous, but I still seem to be holding out for my perfect "Prince Charming," even though he probably doesn't exist.

I'm not sure what you could do to get over your Jun-love phase. It's always okay to love your idol and support him, but there's gotta be a line somewhere. Maybe you'll be able to find a nice guy in your area that you like, he won't be the next MatsuJun or anything, but there are alot of really good guys out there if you're willing to give them the chance.

I'm not saying you should give up your Jun fandom, 25 is still quite young too! Just don't limit yourself to j-idols, & know that everybody can't be as perfect as MatsuJun lol-- because you'd be missing out on alot of great stuff, and even greater people.

For me, I didn't think Arashi has raised my standarts physically, but i do love their personality and i would be very happy if i found a guy which is similar to Nino or Riida for example xDD

I think exactly the same way as Kuro no Hana. At first, I didnt care about Japanese guys at all, but after I knew Arashi I started to change my way of looking at people. Now I try to notice the person, specially when the person is Japanese, Korean or Chinese. They have a different beauty when compared to Western people, which were my beauty pattern before, and now I find Easten people much more beautiful, thanks to Arashi.

My standard has definitely taken a huge turn upward. Before I didnt care about anything as long as he wasnt a total jackass...but now...I am seriously in pursuit of Aiba chan...but I know thats just a dream so I m looking out for someone who will as close as possible wink

and occasionally I see this guy who looks like Nino but I am only on the watch for Aiba number 2 hehehe...

Oh don't worry, it's not about Jun as such. I do realize that he is unattainable. I don't limit my choice because of him. I have always been rather a loner with extremely high standards for as long as I remember, so Jun is probably innocent in this matter. But thanks, when I find somebody I like, I will definitely try it.

I am just a very complicated personality. Think of MatsuJun in XX, you can see that even he, as a VERY known and sexy person, has problems to find a GF (or so it seems, picking with brain he is), I am smart but not really sexy with high standards shaped by Jun-kun as well, so I have to look reaaaaaaally well. wink

yep, they really do raised my standardz.

now i wouldn't date dudez who would just ask me out.

now i have really high standardz.

i would date cool looking, cute azn guyz only.

but that rarely happenz.

so i don't go out with people much anymore.

i just want to wait for someone like Arashi.

but my standardz is not based on 1 member of JE.

i think it'z based on everyone in JE.

but if i meet a person that is like a member of the boy bandz...for example Sho-Kun....if i meet someone like that, i'll be really happy just to know a person like that in real life.

i might not date that person because i respect that person, and i think too high of myself.

he would deserve someone better, rite ??

DEFINATELY!
now if i see an "okay" looking Japanese guy, i'd still be like "meh.. i've seen better (alludes to the good looking arashi guys LOL)"
it sucks so much how there's barely any guys who are as good looking as them though!
