So I was reading a comment section, and I saw someone saying they would never date an actress because she would kiss people and act like they were in relationships with other people. That came off as so insecure to me.

I've done this in the past more than once, and I'd live to regret it. The not very well-known ones are tolerable and sometimes interesting people who have very little education, usually. I had to kind of live with their incessant distress over the fact that they weren't getting the parts that they wanted to get, but then again I would go to some small theaters sometimes and watch them act, and that was kind of interesting for me.
On the other hand - I also dated two very well-known actresses. One for a fairly long period of time. She wasn't worried about the parts she was getting, because she was basically getting everything she wanted and then a little bit more. Instead, what she worried about (and unfortunately what I worried about) was the paparazzi who are really a nightmare. In case you don't know what these people are. They are photographers who follow you around all over the place, everywhere you go, to take your photograph, hoping to catch you in some pose or action that they can sell to the press. We were once staying at a place in Palm Springs that was very private. At 5:00 in the morning, I heard some noise out in the living room and went out to find a photographer there who had literally broken in, hoping to catch us getting out of bed nude or semi-nude. Needless to say, I very strongly asked the gentleman to leave before I broke his nose. He did so thank God. We left Palm Springs early that weekend.
I specifically stopped dating this woman not because I didn't like her and not because I wasn't interested in her or anything like that. It was because of the paparazzi that I could not take it anymore. I was very worried that I was literally going to beat the crap out of one of these people one time, and I knew what would happen to me if I did and It wasn't going to be good. I explained this to her, and she was understanding but also tearful and upset about my decision. I've not seen her in person for quite some time, but I've seen her on television multiple times, and we talk about once a month. We've become friends. She has a new boyfriend, and he apparently can tolerate it more than I could.
So the take away from this should be for you that dating actors and actresses is not peaches and cream. You can do it if you want to, but I guarantee if any time goes by, you will stop doing it because you won't like it.
My wife produces off Broadway plays and I'll volunteer my work for her occasionally. While the actor's and actresses are EXTREMELY talented and have always been nice to me, they are weird! There's only a handful of them that I've met that I could see as being a friend but I would never date an actress.
about the same question as these:
i'd be a lot more understanding if you asked if anyone here would date some kind of sex workers, but actors? really? you do realise that they just put their mouthes on eachother and dont use their tongues, right? it's extremely unsexy for both to be on stage, acting like they were kissing for real, likely even in a specific pose with hot, bright lights shining onto them instead of being at a romantic candle-lit table or so and meanwhile they are actually trying pull back their tongues as much as possible and to not salivate on the other. and they aren't feeling eachother's bodies there, they are only holding onto eachother for the pose. really, they are both just waiting for the next moment to start and for the play to continue.
ofc what happens after is a different story, but that's about the same danger as your date cheating on you with another swimmer that they met in the pool whilst doing their rounds. if you're just a really jealous type, you can still ask your date to think about you during their kissing scenes, but even that i'd view as a bit unfair, bc they really have a whole play to think about. you wouldn't tell your ob/gyn doc husband to always think about you when seeing another woman's body, right? he has a job to do.
really, the only solution is the usual one: if you cannot trust your date to not cheat on you during their work, you as a person cannot ever truly trust them. if you cannot trust your date to not buy himself some love in the red light district when you aren't around, then how you could trust him saying that he loves you?
if you have trust issues, dont let it out on others but work on yourself. it's a bad trait of yours and others won't always just deal with it but may very well dump you for it eventually, or you'll do it yourself bc you cannot continue living like that anymore. this is not a state anyone would want to be in and you'd sooner or later always end up alone like that.
100% yes. Artistic types are the most interesting people of all, especially if they are highly intelligent.

No, I don't think I would. Having been around plenty of actors during my days of video production, and having seen plenty of them in the media since, it's very clear that most actors live in a bubble and are rarely grounded in reality. I assumed that the models would be the weird ones, but no - it was the actors.
Plus, they have crazy schedules, and the majority of "actors" aren't really actors - they're waiters/waitresses or customer service people or warehouse workers who go to auditions on the side and OCCASIONALLY book a couple of days work on something a couple of times a year. Only a small percentage of actors (less than 20%) earn enough from acting to be able to act as a full-time profession, and even then, most of them are background or bit-part actors, but maybe get 10 or 12 parts a year and get 30-40 days of work that pays enough to live on for the year.
Think about this: an average move has about 80-100 acting parts. Of those, you probably know the names of 5 or maybe 10 of those actors, because they're successful enough to get bigger roles that allow you to learn their name. What about the other 90 actors in the movie? Some worked on the movie for 5 days, and some worked on it for 1 scene. Many will only get 1 or 2 other similar bit parts that year. That's the life of most actors.
And that means they get rejected a ton, and THAT means most of them are incredibly insecure. They're all in therapy, most are on medications, and lots seem to supplement that with alcohol or recreational drugs as well.
No thanks, I don't need any of that. And don't let me get started on FAME, which is one of the worst things that can happen to most people.
I often have little mini crushes on actors and actresses but have never actually dated one, I hadn’t thought about it as far as negatives like seeing them be intimate with other people, I guess that might be stressful, but overall I don’t think I would refuse to date them for that reason.
It's not for me. I would personally avoid them. It's not just the fact that they may be physically intimate with other actors (some may say no to that). But it's also the fact that they know how to fake their personality and literally become someone else. For me, while that shows a level of talent that many people do not have, I also don't want to have to question who they are.
I don't need the headache. I had a guy who wanted to date me that was an up and coming actor but he was full of himself and it just turned me off from wanting to date someone in that business.
I'm married so I wouldn't date now, but back when I was single, Sure, I'd date an actress. She can kiss another guy (or girl) as part of her job, so long as she kisses me when she gets home 😉
The answer is No. With actress the advantages that I get will be mostly on looks only. Like for example if the woman is an actress then it is very likely that she will be beautiful/gorgeous and will have a toned physique.
Other than this, her character, her personality, her behaviour, her mindset these things will be highly questionable. I give importance to both physical beauty and personality aspects. Dating an actress would mean taking a risk with the personality aspect. It is possible that the actress will have all types of bad habits that one can imagine. Too much risk and too much of headache eventually as personality aspect is important to me.
I was asked out by an actor while at a celebrity basketball game. I told him I had a boyfriend because I did at the moment. I think if I was single I might have gave it a shot back then…
But really I would have hated the lack of privacy that comes with dating someone in the industry.
my reason not to... would be the fact that I don't like the idea of fame... and having a "second life" for the camera
intimacy, privacy... and "freedom" is something that famous people lack... and that's something I really like so, no thanks... lol
As long as they could turn it off. A lot of those people are so lost in character that you never know what's real and what's character. It was the same with a model I dated. She was always in character. I never knew who who she really was. Like turn it off already.
I've been to theater parties and they are very strange.
"they would never date an actress because she would kiss people and act like they were in relationships with other people. That came off as so insecure to me."
I wouldn't even think about insecurity lol, rather someone literal-minded, which shall give, for them and their surroundings, all sorts of wacky statements and interactions 😂
No because I'm not one for the limelight despite my own small amount of fame.
Aside from that I really value my privacy and when my privacy is threatened or violated I tend to get pretty pissed off. So I would not enjoy having reporters or people looking into my life stalking me or my house, etc.
And I just really despite Hollywood and all the shady and disgusting crap that goes on in it and want nothing to do it with it in any way shape or form.
What!..
I am not against Dating actress or even a Pornstar..
I wouldn't marry one though.. Like in front of God.
I would have Kids, with either, if they are genetically Healthy and physically fit!
Many Actress like Scarlett Johansson & Kate Beckinsale , are Very Intelligent women too, with High IQ and Qualifications..
I believe that the actor Sean Austin had a problem like that. He had to ensure his characters didn't kiss in movies because his wife was opposed to it. I remember Sam was supposed to kiss Rosie in LotR, but they wrote the kiss out of it because of that.
I could, if the person is solid.
The job doesn’t intimidate me , insecurity does.
As long as there’s respect, loyalty, and emotional maturity, I’m not competing with a script or a spotlight.
I wouldn't just 'cuz I couldn't stand the idea of someone over acting my over acting. 🤣
But that's just her job! Find out if she is able to separate her job from her personal relationships in real life!
If only I could. I would drop my panties for Moon Sang Min.
They can’t be trusted they’re always wanting whoever can do better for me and pay for everything and whoever does the most that’s where they go to
100 percent 💯
As long it's not a Porn actor with one triollion STDs I wouldn't care.
I've crushed on quite a few -- not famous actresses, women acting in local productions.
@emeraldsaphire Would l! Would I! You betcha !!!
Maybe but it would depend on who it is. But I see so many divorces and drama with Hollywood couples... so maybe not
I would Saman Ansari
Neal McDonough wouldn't kiss another actress, and almost lost his career because of that. I admire him
The woman in her early 20s in the photo stock photo may look sweet and humble
But remember - it's all about them first. They're an actress, remember lol 🎨 🎭 it'll always be them first
A man must be desperate if he would especially if he's outside even the industry of acting - weird why actresses ever date non actors etc and vice 🗜️
Yeah, I wouldn't have a problem with it. Besides, I'm already an actor, of sorts.
I would date them but would dump them if they were moonbats
Artists and politicians tend to make terrible partners.
One should never be serious with a person who lives in make believe.
Nah, you aren't right in the head if your idea of fun is too play pretend as an adult. It's like a Disney adult. All weirdos
no way. i can't see my partner kissing another than me
That's silly. All that stuff is just work to an actor.
Famous? Nope I wouldn't believe them. They don;t date regular people anyway.
Sure from local plays or Hollywood help them to achieve their dreams.
I like Emma myers, she is my crush. If, I had change, I would date with her.
I prefer not to
I enjoy drama.
I would if I liked them,
@emeraldsaphire Sure
Of course! And I have
If it involves kissing in the mouth, no.
Sure, with big spuds !!!
Maybe, but i would stay out of the spotlight
They get harassed everywhere they go
Yes, of course!
I don't think so...
Sure i would
