Your life as a fandom - could this be a meme?

Pretend that your life is a fandom.
Who do people ship you with? Feel free to expand on your answers, name the ships, whatever...

Here are some questions to get you started:
1. Who do the fans like you with in a nice, tasty PWP? Angry/hate sex? Any special kinks that fanon!you seems to have?
PWP - Well, if I must. My most recent ex, probably, there was certainly no plot there... One of my profs - a man beyond the first blush of youth - is surprisingly appealing to me. Don't know where that came from. And there's this doctor that I run into from time to time. He seems nice, and yet I don't feel like we need a lifelong commitment... Oooh! On that note, I have a friend that the timing has never been quite right with - we wouldn't work as a couple, but you know, just a ficlet. :D
Hate sex? Well, there is this one guy that I see out dancing every so often. He's infuriatingly arrogant and completely rubs me the wrong way (c'mon people - open gutter, extract minds), but if I didn't care I wouldn't care, you know? Hmmmm. Yeah.
Fanon!me is definitely a prude. Don't know how it happened, but without exception my canon!partners have commented that I project "prude". But if the authors were prompted for kink, I could see a femmeslash orgy at my local post office. I seem to spend a lot of time there...

2. Who are people shipping you with in romantic, soul mate fics?
The hell if I know. I guess that three of my exes are possible, but in addition to being very happily partnered, they're my exes, you know? There was obviously a flaw.

3. Any ships that squick you? (I'm assuming incest, bestiality, etc. Anyone else?)
Yep. My thesis supervisor for one, although he's a great guy. A dance teacher I used to have - ew!

4. Who are you being shipped with that's your own personal Giant Squid - someone that is simply inconceivable?
Well, I've had the same landlady for 3-4 years without ever having met her. So I'd say she's pretty unlikely. And there's a high concentration of an orthodox religious group near here...I think that's too unlikely to put it in the squick category...

5. Who do people pair you off with in dubiously-supported-in-canon!het or -!slash stories?
That's easy - my dance buddy Julie.

6. What default ship are you in when the fic is primarily about another character?
Gary Sue. :p
