Why You Should Date A Writer

Creative people are an interesting bunch. All of us know at least a few of them in our lives and we are all aware of how intriguing they are. Be it musicians, painters, designers, writers, it’s almost as if they perceive reality itself differently.

It’s beautiful to see them work and if you have such friends, your life really becomes more interesting as you are constantly given a taste of the more abstract side of things.

They really have a profound impact on people around them in ways they might not even be aware of and are often the silent source of inspiration and motivation for many.

That’s why, in my opinion, one of the best things that can happen to you is if you manage to get a creative soul as your special someone. Let me tell you why I think so, by taking an example of writers and why you should date them.

Flawless Communication

In any relationship, communication is one of the most important factors at play. We are basically bags of emotions and feelings and it is really healthy to be able to share them with someone.

If you date a writer, communication won’t ever be a problem because that’s literally their bread and butter; to convey thoughts and feelings in the best way possible. And since they also love listening, you could tell them anything and everything you want to, without the fear of bogging them down.

Also, conversations will never get boring as writers always know how to keep the discussions going, as they are knowledgeable about a variety of things. You could have talks about the silliest of things and you could also have the deepest and most meaningful of talks.

Passion - The Secret Ingredient

Creative people in general, are really passionate beings. Writers for example, tap into their innermost feelings to be able to write a really touching story or a poem and their passion becomes the reason for their various masterpieces.

Having such people in your life means you could be kept feeling special as they could literally tell you in a thousand different ways what you mean to them or why they want to be with you. They could also write about you or mention you subtly in their works or even create an entire fictional character based on you.

Such is their passion for things and people that they decide they want in their lives. It keeps the spark alive and that is very important for a healthy relationship.

They Have A Beautifully Different View of the World

As I said before, creative people tend to have a totally different view of the world than other people. Somehow they perceive things in a much greater detail and are therefore more aware of what’s happening around them.

Writers for example are very observant and can immediately understand what you are going through even though you want to hide it for their sakes. They can then turn a seemingly bad situation into a good one by changing your perception towards it. Who doesn’t want that kind of positivity in their lives?

Dating a writer could very well turn you into a positive, free-spirited person too as slowly but surely you start to look at the world as they do and you begin seeing beauty and artistry everywhere you look.

Really Flexible Lives

Most writers do not have the typical 9-5 job and therefore live really flexible lives. A lot of them work from the comfort of their homes or anywhere else that they feel comfortable getting their thoughts on paper.

This allows them to adjust their schedule according to yours to spend more time with you, which is also a very important thing when you are dating someone. Spending more time with someone creates a feeling of bonding and helps you understand each other better.

Since most of the times all a writer needs is his laptop (or his pen and book), you could even travel the world while being able to work at the same time! Now that’s a life worth living for.

I would like a flexible job. Maybe this this is not so far.
The writers looks a little dreamers. That isn't a bad thing.

A flexible job is the best job. I think we are starting to see a lot of such instances in the world now.

While you have given many reasons for "Why you should date a writer", here is a reason for "Why you shouldn't date a writer" : Whenever he expresses something you can never make out if it is his real feelings or if it is his creative juices at work ;)

Men shouldn't date woman period. Tom Leykis.

Just don't screw them over. Some of the funniest blog posts I've ever read were by spurned lovers.

I agree with everything in this post!...of course I'm a writer myself so am slightly biased!

Are these just reasons for people to date you. XD

I don't consider myself to be strictly a writer. So, no! :P

I agree with you on every words!! In my life I met many creative people, writers, painters, etc and everyone give me "something" and help me to see differents views of the worlds ^_^

Yes, that has been my experience as well :)

Yes...right you are.. Writers are awesome. Everyone should date writers as they are with many virtues that any partners would love to see those virtues in their partners.

But one thing I would like to mention, it is also heard, partners of writers saying that their writer partners don't have time to talk to them as they are always thinking and writing...

Well I suppose it comes down to the individual then.

Well, many regular writers (not George RR Martin), I keep hearing about, have some boring-ass inflexible jobs because they cannot make a living on writing alone. Others don’t have to work, but that’s often courtesy of their stable partner, so technically they’re not datable any longer. I know, I’m poking holes again... Good post BTW :-)

haha, that is quite often the case too. Thanks for reading :)

Yes indeed I am considering the option now :D Specially I do appreciate the time flexibility as I am not working 9-5 :)

Yeah, the flexibility thing is a real gem in today's world, isn't it?

I think I love the most their different view of the world. In some way that kind of people makes us to think out of box and deeper than usualy.

Yes, it's always great to be able to expand your perception. Such a beautiful thing, it is!
