Westley (The Princess Bride)


Talk about your devoted man. This sweet but brave farm boy-turned-adventurer goes up against all sorts of evil and malice in his quest to reunite with his beloved Buttercup. Imagine having a man whose every response is “as you wish”? Sure, it might get a bit boring after a while, but really. Look at his face (we have to go with the movie adaptation here because Cary Elwes was just so damn yummy). Could you really, ever get sick of waking up to that face every morning?

Plus, on top of being incredibly charming, full of undying love and devotion, and brains that can outwit even the cleverest Sicilian, he also has mad pirate skillz. Being a Pirate + True Love = literary lust.
