Post 12: Sophiam (1-9-14)

 

 As some of you may know (or will find out right now) three of the five members of One Direction are in relationships. One of them is Liam. Liam is dating a girl named Sophia Smith who comes from his hometown. Apparently they were childhood friends. A lot of my Directioner friends have asked me at one time or another about my opinion on Sophiam, which is their ship name. I'm going to express that opinion now.

Was I happy when Sophiam got together? I'm going to be completely honest: not really. It's probably because Liam is my favorite and sometimes I get kind of protective over him. I just can't help it. Sometimes I wonder why I'm so upset. It's not like I have a chance to be with him. He's a pop star from England and I'm a random fangirl from New York. I guess anything can happen though, and even though it's not likely, I still cling on to that hope.

Like all celebrity relationships, I have no clue what's actually going on in their personal lives. For all I know, they could be totally in love and completely happy with their relationship. What I do see is the public side of their relationship and that's not very convincing to me. Whenever I see pictures of them, Liam seems very focused on Sophia, but Sophia never seems very interested in him. Come on, Sophia, you're on the arm of a huge and very handsome pop star. Look alive.

That's really all I can say about Sophiam. Am I happy about it? Not really. I'm afraid Sophia is going to use Liam just for fame. Liam had a very hard time getting back into the dating scene after the crushing breakup between him and his girlfriend, Danielle Peazer, (whom I liked so much more than Sophia to be honest) and I don't want him to get hurt for him. However, it does seem like Sophia is making Liam happy so I have to be okay with it. Even if I don't really like Sophia, I would never hate on her like some fans do. That's wrong and completely crosses the line. I guess I just have to wait out Sophiam until Liam and me get together.
