Because fairy tales are better left in books? Lol I adore many fictional characters with whom I know I could never be friends in real life. Same way I love Amish novels but wouldn’t survive a week on an Amish farm.

When you read a book, even though the words belong to the author, the character is shaped by your interpretation. Real people have no such saving grace.

However, I think some of their qualities they possess in books are actually lacking in real life! lol! 😉
