Harry Potter star Emma Watson is at the top of everyone’s hot list right now -- she’s in-demand as an actress and model, and we’re pretty sure every twenty-something guy out there wants to date her. Well, every guy except her ex-boyfriend.\"We had a bit of a thing a while back, but I have always been an ambitious person and I want to achieve my own notoriety for what I’ve done,\" Made in Chelsea actor Francis Boulle told Heat magazine in their new issue. \"That’s why I chose not to pursue it any longer, because I didn’t want to be the boyfriend of some child actress.\"Watson’s hardly \"just a child actress.\" Perhaps Boulle just came down with a case of the Foot-in-Mouth Disease going around Hollywood these days. However, he does have kind words for his one-time gal pal.\"We do share a lot of mutual friends and our paths cross from time to time. I actually really like Emma. She’s a really cool person,\" he said. \"She’s a very different person to who she is in the media. That’s what I liked about her -- she’s very interesting.\"Watson is now dating actor Johnny Simmons – they met on the set of their new film The Perks Of Being A Wallflower -- and she reportedly asked him to move in with her while she studies at Oxford University this year.Still, Watson isn’t immune to the self-doubt that plague many girls her age.\"My friends are always telling me I have to play hard to get because I\'ll pretty much say to a guy, \'I like you -- let\'s go hang out.\' But my friends are like, \'You can\'t do that! You have to string this guy along.\' And I\'m just like, \'No! I won\'t! I just want to go on the date! It\'s a nightmare -- I definitely haven\'t figured it out yet,\" she told Seventeen this summer.\"I say to my friends, ‘Why hasn’t X called me?’ They’re like, ‘Probably because they are intimidated.’ It must be the fame wall.\"\"I find it hard to believe anyone would find me intimidating.\"
