Should Rarity get a boyfriend?

[~Chaotic Fireball~ 499]

It could make for a great episode, where rarity tried to juggle time between her friends, her bf, and her general work (making dresses, etc.)

I think it could be worth a shot, plus, Hasbro would be able to make more toys, and then they'd be happy.

It would be a win/win situation!

[Dashabel 381]

Lol yeah!

Well, not so literally, but she could have a crush. I think it's about time they bought some lurve into the show.. It's be funny!

[Righteous Fury 344]

No. No no no.

 

No.

 

Nooooooooooooo, just no. No no. No no no no.

 

Nonononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononononono. No.

 

No no no no no.

 

NO.

 

In summary, my response to this idea is a firm and unyielding: no.

 

(No.)

Wouldn't that make spike sad? I don't see it happening, though. But if it did happen, Rarity would be the pony who would most likely get a boyfriend, she's into romance and stuff.

[Ganondox 899]

No, the show is targeted towards people with boyfriends, and it's drastic of change. However, maybe she could have one for a single episode, there are a few different things they could try with that.

It's entirely possible in my opinion, that atleast 1 of the mane 6 will gain a partner at some point during the following seasons. Who it will be, Im not quite sure, but relationships are universal, and just so long as they don't  ruin it by making it some pathetic Gen 2 or 3 love story, then Im completely fine with it...

 

I do agree that AT LEAST one of them will....especially Applejack Twilight because she's of royalty. I mean, wouldn't YOU like to date royalty?

I don´t know, but wouldn´t that completely break spike´s heart? :´c

But, yea, it has been at least hinced before, and maybe will find it´s place in season 4, I wouldn´t lay my hoof in the fire for it, though...

YES! BREAK HIS PATHETIC HEART! I mean seriously...if the show is about love lessons, there should at least be a message that you will get rejected one time or the other, or about "puppy" love. I continue to hate that term... And can make friend-zoned guys (like me) feel better.

 

I agree with you. I mean it's a nice idea that's been mentioned before and all but....Would it put too much stress on the Mane 6 remaining whole? I mean it might make for a good episode if Rarity was trying to juggle time between her friends and her boyfriend, but I doubt it would go very much farther...It might be one of those, "Yes it's around but not mentioned." type of things if Rarity does get involved in a serious relationship.

I suppose that if the show will be teaching love lessons, I suppose there will be an episode where the lesson is where one must decide between a relationship and one's friends...so I guess that can be incorporated  as well as time for friends and time for relationships.

 

Don't worry, it'll most likely happen in Equestria Girls. I mean they are going to High School and all. 

 

And Thunderlane becoming her boyfriend? A bit too sudden, don't ya think?

Lol, Equestria Girls will SUCK like a vacuum cleaner. I do think that Thunderlane+Rarity=doom. I mean, seriously...she'll bitch about his haircut first. Then his looks. Then his personality. 

 

I would like her to have a date in an episode, BUT NEVER A BOYFRIEND!!!! JUST NO! FORGET IT! NOT GONNA HAPPEN! 

 

now, just because Thunderlane caught her in Wonderbolts Academy doesn't mean that she should date him, my perfect stallion for Rarity would be Beat Spark Fancy Pants, he just need to get rid of certain b*tch 

I do think that Rarity is way to bitchy to be in a relationship...but she can keep an open mind. Fler de Lis doesn't really do much, does she?

 

There's plenty of good morals to be found in relationships and freindship is a part of relationship, plus Rarity is romantically focused, so why not?  Be really interesting if at some point, Rarity announced that she was pregnant.

Rarity? Preggers? That'll be the day...although it will probably get pulled for "Encouraging Teen Pregnancy" and all that. I do think it'll be interesting to see awkward conversations.

 

Unless it's Spike, I don't think that Rarity should get a boyfriend. Unless it's somepony that has an arrogant, horrid personality, so that Rarity realises that  looks aren't everything. Then maybe she could realise how much she actually likes Spike, and then go out with him instead. I think that could make a good episode

SPIKE DOESN'T DESERVE HER. I DO . I don't think that Spike should date Rarity. There should be an episode about the Friend Zone and all that to make guys (Like me) feel ...accounted for.

 

Since the series has become more made for the fandom I think season 4 would be more adult too. So I think it could be perfectly possible that Rarity will get a boyfriend. Would be awesome just because that means it's turning more and more adult don't you think?

I do think that the show has more and more adult references. The show is turning into...a commercial for adulthood, actually. I find it quite amusing, actually.

[Sugar Cube 4,843]

No, she should not. What I like about Rarity is that she's the only one who shows any interest in other stallions, but she never actually gets with anyone. That makes for a lot of fun imaginations, but it's not something that should happen because this show is not trying to be another run-of-the-mill girl's show where every female lead has to hook up with someone. I just don't want any of the Mane Six to get a boyfriend, because it's not necessary.

 

Also, how would Spike feel if Rarity got a boyfriend? A big part of both Spike's character and Rarity's character is the way they care for another and treat each other. Spike would never be the same if Rarity got with someone, and that'd be pretty dark.

Rarity isn't a teenager.  The ponies are considered to be in their lower twenties.  It would be no different than if Cadence announced she was pregnant, especially if Rarity got married first.

Now that would be obtrusive. It's one thing for Cadence to be pregnant, because she's a supporting character. Rarity is a main character, and making her a mother would totally change the dynamic of the show.

 

Plus it would have that fanfic-y air about it.

Oh god, if people got upset about Alicorn Twilight, I am scared to see what they would do about Pregnant Rarity. That would be absolutely terrifying actually. Meep, I'm scared now.

   I personally can see Rarity becoming busy between her relationship with her boyfriend and the Mane 6 and working with her dresses. This would typically lead to conflict. However, knowing the writers, I can see an episode trying to improve this, but as I said before, it'd be just awkward, in my opinion, to have any pony in a relationship. It just doesn't seem like something involved in the main focus of the show: Learning about friendship.

Managing a personal life is a part of reality, so they could make it work in context of the show.

 

Actively looking?

 

Ehhh.... No.

 

She has standards, you know, she had a crush on ONE pony for who knows how long, she doesn't seem to look for anyone.

Maybe you're right.  I was being a bit unfare.  Rarity may be the only one who we've seen looking, but that doesn't mean the others are not.
