2Joe Fox
Movie: You’ve Got Mail (1998)
Joe’s email game is A+, so you know he’ll be excellent at texting. A successful business man looking for love, he’ll probably never judge you by your Tinder pic, preferring some deep conversation. Moreover, he always puts face-to-face relationships first, so he won’t abandon you for a random Snapchat crush. Ah, to be in love in the digital age.
Movie: Big (1988)
He’s a child who winds up in the body of an adult, so he will remind you what the world looked like when you were younger. Hint: things were much simpler back then. Plus, Josh is funny, spontaneous, charming, and knows how to entertain. You’ll never get bored with this one!

6Walter Fielding Jr.
Movie: The Money Pit (1986)
Sure, Walter Fielding Jr. may make terrible investments, but he isn’t afraid of hard work. He knows how to make you laugh when the times get tough, his facial expressions are great, and his charm is off the charts. Living under the same roof with him doesn't sound that bad, even if said roof collapses.

7Joe
Movie: Joe Versus the Volcano (1990)
Despite what his name might suggest, this isn’t your average Joe. First off, he’s not afraid to jump into a volcano, showing courage and strength. But since living like a king and dying like a man is worthless without a trusted partner by your side, he’s open to love as well (even if he understands that timing sucks sometimes). He’ll also take you on adventures you only dreamed about, which wins him bonus points.

8Larry Crowne
Movie: Larry Crowne (2011)
He’s looking to reinvent himself, eager to learn, and excited about making new friends. Going back to school isn’t easy, so he may need some support. However, he’s a born sweet-talker, so he’ll more than make up for his shortcomings.
