You girls are getting a little bit carried away. I personally think that he would be the PERFECT boyfriend for me, because I love dark-haired men and as far as being a good dad is concerned, I definitely think he would be an excellent one.

Late to reply to this as I'm catching up.
The way I see it, Apolo is only 25. That's still young to me. I think Apolo considers himself quite young too as he alludes to it often in conversation.
I don't see him even remotely considering anything serious until he at least hits 30. For 12 years he's completely devoted himself to his sport...and he'll continue to devote himself for another 2.5 years. It's obvious he has no aspirations at present to settle down. His life so far has been nothing but intense discipline and a daily regiment of on ice training, working out, phychological preparation and nutritional considerations day after day after day. I don't even know that he's had the opportunity to have a 'normal' relationship with anyone given his lifestyle. I'm aware he's dated casually and perhaps even seriously with Allison, but I'm still doubtful it would be 'serious' in the context you and I would consider serious.
I think once 2010 rolls around and he puts competitive short track aside, he'll focus more on himself in terms of new career challenges, a permanent home base and a solid relationship.

Do you think Apolo will settle down eventually if he meets the right person?I think he would make an awesome dad and I know he is young but I wondered your thoughts on this? Absolutely he will settle down one day. He has said himself that he sees this happening in his thirties, after his competitive days are over, and that age range seems about right to me. In the meantime, he needs some serious playtime. He needs to date different girls and have fun. But I've always thought that when the time is right, he's going to fall like a brick for some lucky girl. I really envy his future wife, I think he's going to make a great husband and father. I had the pleasure of watching Apolo interact with a large crowd of kids at the spring '06 "Mathmovesu" event in Washington, D.C. Some people are naturally very good with kids and he is one of them. It's clear that he loves and respects kids and they adore him right back. He will make a terrific father. |

That women will be a verrrrry lucky girl and I would be lying if I wished it was me. His babys will look so much like him, with the Japanese eyes and the beautiful locks of hair. ahhhh! What a dream!  |

kari 123 Hey jennaceeta25:
There was the same question just like this one.
(will Apolo ever settle down?) There was this one thing I read some where on the internet and it said that Apolo does not have time for a realationship and that he is trianing hard for the 2010 Olympics...just giving that out! Thought that might be interesting!!!

Do you think Apolo will settle down eventually if he meets the right person?I think he would make an awesome dad and I know he is young but I wondered your thoughts on this? Yes, of course, he will eventually marry and have a family. Deep down, I think he wants to be a family man with a wife and kids to love and be loved in return. Otherwise, he'd be lonely. I was hoping that Allison was the right woman for him. But I read a news article somewhere that one of the reasons Apolo and Allison broke up was because she wanted more of his time and attention in their relationship which he wasn't able or willing to do at the time. I've always wondered if that was true. Anybody know for sure? In his 20's, Apolo seems to be at that stage in his life when he's mainly concerned about his personal goals. I don't think he's selfish or self-centered, but right now there are too many things he wants to do and achieve as an individual, and a relationship would be distracting and demand too much of himself, I think. He has his father's love and support, and that seems to be enough to sustain him emotionally for now. He would have to fall hard, real hard, for him to think of any kind of serious relationship at this time in his life. And when he does, he'll probably have a lot of things in common with the woman. That's why he and Julianne never really clicked. I thought they made a charming couple who got along great, but they had so little in common. Also, he probably thought she was a bit immature, like a little girl who still needed time and life experience to grow and mature. JMO. It would be so nice if he met someone who shared his interests, ideals and goals in life. I think that's the only way he'd truly be happy. I just hope he doesn't fall in love with the wrong kind of woman for him who will ruin his life and break his heart. I don't know why I think this could happen - just a feeling. After all, you just never know about love. It's unpredictable. On a brighter note, I think I know him well enough to know that he'll probably choose wisely and be a happy man all his life. I hope. |

....and you just better hope that Yuki likes whoever he picks, or life could be miserable.
I remember reading somewhere that when A&A were dating, Yuki was concerned about the time being spent, concerned that it was diverting Apolo's attention. Apolo's response to his dad was not to worry.
Like I said, things might get a bit bumpy if dad doesn't approve...

Like I said, things might get a bit bumpy if dad doesn't approve... Certainly Dad is his biggest confidant and 'go to' guy for advice. But Apolo seems a very independent soul and it appears he makes it clear to Yuki that he is capable of making his own decisions. ...that's not to say that 'dear ol' dad' couldn't make life a living hell on earth for any significant other--as you marrieds with in-laws well know!  |

This is a question that has been going around for a long time already. Off course he will settle down. Now, i am a different kind of female human breed who is against marriage and everything that it offers, or does not. People, no matter what, want to be loved and taken care of by someone they are not only attracted to but, people want to be with someone who makes them feel safe and "at home". Apolo is no different in this matter. i am sure he wants to be with a person who he can rely on. However, because he has a life, this feeling can come later in his life. I mean, he is not too young, he will be 25 in May the 22nd of this year  , saw how I know this fact. He, he, he The only problem with this assumption is that we want us to be that woman to occupy that place in his life. Even though he does not know we exist, we get upset with the one girl he is with at the moment because we are jealous and she has what we can't seem to get. However, that dream is not UN reachable. That is because apolo is not like Hayden Christensen in my case, UN reachable. Apolo seems friendly and accessible. Hayden on the other hand is outside the Milky Way for me. If you play your cards right and the right time is here, Apolo or any dude for that matter can be yours. Just work in making it a reality and not just a great dream/fantasy |
