All the Protective Strength

Happy Friday!  Just for fun, here's a quick update to this post from 2012 with a few more of my favorite *fictional* men, listed in no particular order. ❤

1.  Tim Riggins -- Friday Night Lights

Yus, pleeease!  He doesn't fall into my usual categories, but wow, soooo hot. lol  Deep, piercing eyes. Scraggly, messy hair. All the protective strength. Playful arrogance. Lots of rough edges and attempts to numb past pain, but also lots of goodness and kindness.

2.  Chuck Bartowski, aka Charles Carmichael -- Chuck

Just precious.  Smart and charming and funny and goofy.  Very loyal and protective of those he loves!

3.  "Nick Miller, or Nicholas for long" -- New Girl

A hot mess.  Easily irritated and hilarious every time he's annoyed.  Very protective and loyal and caring.  Self-deprecating and sexy.  Fights through feeling defeated to find ambition and push for more.

4.  Schmidt, or as Jace calls him, "Smidge" -- New Girl

Playful arrogance to the max.  Funny, charming, confident, competitive, goal-oriented metrosexual. Ridiculous in so many ways but very likable!

5.  Andrew Paxton -- The Proposal

Author and businessman who's sincere, self-deprecating, hilarious, protective, and smart!

6.  Jim Halpert -- The Office

Great facial expressions for nonverbal connections. :)  Playful, funny, loyal, kind, ambitious, and attractive!

7. Joel Graham -- Parenthood

Sincere family man, good dad and husband.  Thoughtful and fun.  Protective strength (definitely a pattern there).

8.  Tom Branson -- Downton Abbey

Bold, passionate, loyal, and committed. Funny, genuine, protective, loving, quick-witted, ambitious, and confident.

9.  Owen Grady -- Jurassic World

Again with the protective strength - my favorite quality in any man. Confident, playful arrogance. Smart and charming and brave!

10.  Jackson Avery -- Grey's Anatomy

Those eyes!!  Brilliant, sexy, confident, successful, sincere, protective, good leader.
