i just wanna meet her in person and mission accomplished

I would risk my great job to meet her.........o wait I'm already doing that.
To answer this question the farthest I would go is probably selling my car or house because if you think about it if I have a relationship with her I can just live with her and also before my parents died they made a bank account strictly to buy me a house just in case somthing happend to the one I'm living in right now. But, I'd never go to prison or live in seclusion for that matter.

Respect To All
Peace Out

Hypo 1

Be with Alizee but on the condition that you first have to spend 10 years in a federal prison? Here, though, there is no chance of being killed nor suffering sexual assault while in prison.

Well... i'm not loving her that much...

Hypo 2

Be with Alizee or be the quarterback of a really good NFL team (and therefore really rich, play a sport you might enjoy, be really famous, and enjoy any other perk you can think of)?

Easy choice ! Be with Alizée ! ( I don"t care about NFL !!)

Hypo 3

Be with Alizee but on the condition that you live in Siberia with her alone in a very secluded cottage. This means, though, that you can never see your family again, no TV, no video games, no friends, no music...etc)

Well, I suppose that Siberia is not so cold... when your with Alizée...

Hypo 4

Be with Alizee but on the condition that you just won 20 million in the lottery and that you have to give away the 20 million to support a political campaign you oppose?

That's a strange one. I don't care about giving money I just won... but supporting the polical parti I usually fight... wow... that's wrong.

Hypo 5

Be with Alizee but on the condition that you're her servant: have to walk her dogs (3am daily if requested), you clean the house while see kicks back watching her favorite show, you have to do her laundry, cut the grass daily, clean the pool (and never enjoy swimming in it) take care of the house while she goes skiing in the Swiss Alps...etc.

Let's play master and servant !!

I could love this one ...

I would choose situation number 3 because it's all I want!
Live with her all my life it's a dream!

It's a bit crazy but....

Express yourself!!

Spaltl · #17 03-31-2008, 10:33 AM

I would choose hypo 2 and 4

Although these exercises are sometimes fun to contemplate, keep in mind that a unilateral relationship born out of a one-sided sacrifice seldom leads to happiness, and more often leads to much worse. This is true not just in our celebrity infatuation, but also in our day to day lives.

How far would I go for Alizée? I vote for forgoing any radical departure of norm and to keep the relationship on a respectfully anonymous fan/celebrity level. Note Alizée benefits most from our COLLECTIVE hearts and spirits as fans. Although great is the desire to thrust our individuality above the COLLECTIVE through some great sacrifice, such an act will inevitable meet with disaster.

Stay cool. Be a fan.

LOL. Some of these threads just kill me.

None of those conditions have any connection with reality. I suppose you're being offered this by the Devil or something? As with all deals with the Devil, the prize ends up being ruined by the conditions.

I'll say first up that I don't even know, at this juncture, whether or not I would want to "be with" Alizée (in a romantic sense -- I would definitely like to have her as a friend, though). Not saying necessarily that I wouldn't, either, but without having actually met her how could I know? What I feel for her, more than anything else, is gratitude, for having saved my sanity and quite possibly my life. Is that enough for a romantic commitment? No, although it's a good start.

But if I did, here's how I'd see your questions.

1. I'm already old enough to be her father. Not sure how many good years I have left beyond those 10! So, no on this one.

2. I hate football. I can't stand jocks. I love physical activity, but the mind-set of professional athletics is a complete turn-off. I would never want to be a professional athlete. So the Devil wouldn't offer me this deal anyway, it's too easy a choice.

Now -- If it were, that I can be with Alizée OR be a best-selling author, that's different. I would not sacrifice my dreams to get any lover, period. I would not ask her to give up her art for me, and no way would I give up mine for her, either.

3. Classic poisoned offer. She is tied to Corsica. She needs, ideally, to live there, but at minimum be close enough to visit often. I could stand living in Siberia, but it would be bad for her, and would ruin our relationship. No on this one, too.

4. Since I have a feeling my politics are pretty similar to hers, if she ever found out about this . . . better not.

5. Hmm . . . How much is she going to pay me? Maybe we can work something out.

Here's a more serious consideration if you want to think about how far you would or wouldn't go.

Would you be willing to have Alizée as a lover on the understanding that she would be gone a large percentage of the time, doing pop-star things around the world, and that you would miss her a lot?

Would it be acceptable that she is adored, lusted after, and the object of passionate love by large numbers of other men, who do crazy things to show their affection and get her attention? Would that make you feel jealous?

Would you want a lover who would plunge you into a mad celebrity lifestyle, having to deal with reporters and papparazzi, being recognized everywhere you go, having no anonymity and no privacy except what you ensure through measures you never have to take now?

Could you deal with a lover who is rich and famous, or would the fact that you could not support the lifestyle you have with her on your own make you feel insecure and inferior?

These are the realistic "how far would you go" questions.
