Why Tatiana?
RealAnastasia:
I wanted to start this new thread, for I'm not a great "Tatiana fan". I always liked much more the dreamer, moody Olga, the special Anastasia, the sweet beatiful Mashka than the plain (for me) practical Tatiana.And now I would want to know WHY some people considers she is their favorite GD. I know that Tatiana had many vertues: she was very kind to her mother, and cared very much for Alexei when he was sick a bed. She was very religious and practical...Yes; but I can't like her especially.
I wait for your opinions! :D

I think so many people like her because she was so incredibly beautiful. Even though it's superficial, it's one of the huge reasons why people like someone. It goes for me too. It's a big reason why Olga is my favorite.
RealAnastasia:
It's a good reason for me! I liked Olga very much just for her beauty. Of course, it's not only for this I like her...But I can understand those who admires her for her exotical beauty. She had a sort of "Eastern beauty"...Didn't she?

Lanie:
I think so. Most people said Tatiana was the most beautiful of the four girls; she was fashionably pale, had dark hair and gray eyes, and her eyes were oddly shaped and far apart with the Hessian features from her mother... she looked exotic and therefore more attractive to men, and was so tall and slender too. I of course was not a big fan of Tatiana until recently as I amwriting a long sort of biography about her; she was interesting. People think she was just the bossy one of OTMA, but at the same time she was unselfish in her desire to please her mother--but also used this to her advantage to manipulate, as I see it, to get things she or her sisters wanted since she knew how to keep cool and charm her way into a "yes" answer--and was a talented pianist and artist just like her older sister. She also suffered a lot in her short life, falling in love like her older sister did, and him apparently loving her back... and Olga also having a crush on this man... as well as trying to calm her mother during all the anxious times from 1917-18.

Lanie,
I am curious, who won Tatiana's heart?
