This reminds of a great bit in one of my favorite holiday movies, The Holiday. Kate Winslet's character is told something that has stuck with me for years. "You are leading lady material, but for some reason you're acting like the best friend." Kate replies, "Yes, you should be the leading lady of your own life, for goodness sakes."I've been trying to be a leading lady. First I still have to figure out what that means for me. !!
For a more specific answer, I am really alot like Kate in that movie but haven't found my Jack Black yet.

Drew Barrymore in "Ever After".KharisJo says,
Eowyn (Miranda Otto) in Lord of the Rings - she's brave, independent and beautifulKharisJo says,
did I misread the question? That's who I'd like to be like.MsKillie says,
As a child, I wanted to be a Goonie! Those were the coolest kids of my childhood.Dean6805 says,
I frequently feel like George Bailey in "It's A Wonderful Life." Something of a romantic, a bit goofy, even a bit cranky on occasion, but I like to think I can figure things out in time to appreciate what I really have. "No man is a failure, who has friends" is what Clarence writes to him in the book. I feel that's very true and, therefore, I could never be considered a failure.unknown116 says,
I'm still contemplating my own character reference, I'll let you guys know when I figure it out.NumbrOneAunt says,
similar to autumn22's comment, i am the character in every rom com who gets left behind when the leading man and leading lady for whom the audience is supposed to be rooting realize that they are meant for each other and disentangle themselves from their current relationships.catsmeow says,
Well then I'm the Meg Ryan in those same rom coms, who gets what/who she wants. Only the movie stops at the happily ever after part, but my life seldom does.ctgoods2 says,
If I Love Lucy were a movie - I'd be Lucy.accidentaltourist says,
Almost any character ever played by Christine Baranski.Layne says,
Katniss in the Hunger Games. I want to be brave against the odds like her.Browniethehamster says,
I'm the nerdy girl math geek who word vomits all over the place but somehow manages to get the hot guy in the end.oopsalittle says,
I'm like Calamity Jane - the part where you look really pretty and happy, and somehow always end up tripping my self up - falling in mud, egg on my face - you get the idea.ba_miracle says,
the scrappy little red head girl from the wrong side of the tracks who makes good.lillybrook says,
I am the main character, and -- at some point -- I am going to achieve it all and the crowd will cry and applaud. And the critics will love it: the drama, the action, the humor. I am already practicing my Oscar speech ;-)
