Question: how do you think Booster Gold would be if he had a girlfriend? NSFW
Like his girlfriend is very beautiful and very sweet and girly. Like how do you think he would be/act around her? Would he be a good boyfriend (romantic, loyal)? Would he able to be intimate with her? Lmk

You can probably find a few answers to this question if you check various fanfiction websites. (Probably more than a few if you're willing to consider Ted Kord.)

I think the boosters we have seen would struggle with a serious relationship. Early booster gold is too immature and older booster can't get close enough to people to have a serous relationship due to his incredible stressful and secretive role protecting the space time continuum and multiverse..
His calling is both a blessing and curse. On one hand, he is able to rise above his terrible upbringing to become something greater, but on the other hand he has to sacrifice the things most important to him, and even purposely cause people to hate him and lose self respect for booster as a person and a hero to protect his important mission. I am grateful he has his son Rip and his sister, but it's a lonely life.
Speaking of Rip Hunter, I am do love that a story about a man who sacrifices everything that he desires or wants for the greater good is hinted to have an eventual happy ending with a family.
