NO, No, no. I'm sure he utilized his charm powers in the beginning, but that is not why Rogue is totally and completely in love with him!For instance... one of the main reasons she really started to fall for him was because of his persistence, she knows no one can touch her, everyone knows that so everyone would avoid it and Gambit just wanted it. He knew he couldn't and she wouldn't let him but that didn't matter and he wasn't afraid of her. That was the first time anyone has ever been like that with her, not afraid, just totally persistent even though they may never find a way to touch. He was the only one opening that door. ALSO, lets please not forget the many romantic conversations of "maybe we can find out what it's like to have a relationship past all the physical stuff" which he wasn't lying, he knew perfectly well that it may never, ever happen in a billion years. He also bombarded her with flowers, dinners, and all the little wooing tokens of that nature. I mean seriously, charm powers or not, it was in the bag and I am sad you guys thought otherwise. He really went all above and beyond to get her liking and they may have never been intimate, so maybe you are not giving the guy some credit here?
i know all this...
i never doubted gambit's feelings for rogue, thats not my point...
my point is about that damn power... the power of charm... it defeats the whole purpose of chasing a woman like rogue because in the back of his mind he must wonder whether it was all him or if his power had an effect...
Gambit is by no means gay, but i'd say he's definately a metrosexual...
