8 Things You Need To Know About Dating A Doctor Who Fan

6. Roleplay

Those of you who are really unfamiliar with the Doctor Who fandom probably won't know that many fans partake in the popular pastime of 'cosplaying' which basically involves them dressing up as their favourite characters and monsters. You either get it or you don't. As such, and to avoid any confusion, you'll have to clarify exactly what you mean if you ever suggest heating things up in the bedroom through the art of roleplay. It's an embarrassing conversation but it's definitely worth having it to save further humiliation down the line. If you don't, you'll only have yourself to blame when your other half turns up to the party dressed as a Dalek or an Ood or something, and the consequences would be pretty embarrassing for everyone concerned. Unless you like that sort of thing, that is, in which you're in for one hell of a ride. Tumblr M7jm5vf09f1rthy64 Gif
