Exploring the vast world of the Teyvat is exciting and refreshing. The beautiful scenery and friendly towns are a great safe place to retreat to after a long day of combat to finally sit back and relax. However, being able to share that relaxing backdrop with a sweetheart would make life in the Teyvat next to perfect.

In an open-world game like Genshin Impact, the possibilities feel endless. But with all the handsome bachelors who can join the Traveler's team, it's a shame the game doesn't feature romance routes. Genshin Impact is known for its unique and well-received cast, and releases new characters often to keep the game interesting. Here are the top eight characters from Genshin Impact that would make great potential husbands if the game were a dating sim.
8 Baizhu, An Intriguing Romance
Baizhu makes a lasting first impression, and could make for an interesting relationship. In all dating sim games, there's always one route that may not seem appealing at first but slowly catches the player's interest over time. Baizhu, the notorious owner of the renowned Bubu Pharmacy, may be known for being a bit greedy when it comes to charging for his special medicines. Deep down, though, there's got to be some redeeming qualities.
So far, Baizhu only has a few short minutes of substantial screentime, so little is known about his true personality. Hopefully though, his fangirls and fanboys, will be able to see more of him in the future. After all, Baizhu had enough kindness in his heart to take in the adorable Qiqi despite her shortcomings; he can't be all bad.
7 Xiao, A Cold Exterior With A Kind Heart
This powerful adeptus is the last of the Yaksha that were dispatched by the powerful Geo Archon, Rex Lapis. Although cold at first, Xiao is merely a misunderstood soul. After being subjected to suffering for his years of slaughter in the name of Rex Lapis, he's reduced to a mere man, lonely and (secretly) longing for some good company.
On the outside, Xiao is a cold-hearted Yaksha that doesn't care for mortal feelings or trivial things like dates or relationships. But after growing close to the right person, Xiao is caring and kind-hearted. After all, he was meant to protect Liyue and all its people, so players know how dedicated he can be. It may take awhile to grow close to Xiao, but with enough dedication, he'll open up and grow comfortable sharing his feelings. If all else fails, prepare him some almond tofu to get on his good side.
6 Dainsleif, A Mysterious Romantic
Perhaps the most mysterious of the current group of bachelors, Dainsleif certainly is an intriguing person. A soon-to-be-released playable character, Dainsleif has finally made a short appearance in a quest dedicated to himself and his journey against the Abyss Order. The way he carries himself is romantic on its own. He's well-spoken and very knowledgeable – even on topics it seems strange for him to be so familiar with.

Behind all the eloquence and stern devotion lies a sense of sadness. It's easy to imagine a route where the player tries their best to help Dain with his mysterious troubles. Even with most of his personality a mystery, it's no doubt that Dainsleif's good looks, smooth voice, and dapper wardrobe are enough to gain some dedicated fans that would love to pursue him.
5 Childe, The Classic Bad Boy
After completing Childe/Tartaglia's quest involving his younger brother, Teucer, it's easy to see Childe is great with kids and is capable of being a loving person. Another plus is his financial stability. Although he's a bit of a "bad boy" he's someone who knows how to have fun and treat a partner to a great time. Sure, Childe is an incredibly dangerous member of the Fatui and the 11th Harbinger, but when it comes to the basics, he's great company.
Childe is an intricate human being with a lot of layers. In order to hide his malicious side, he needed to build a front that's likable and easy to trust. Maybe it's a bit "fake," but it's easy to see how Childe could be appealing candidate. Being an active member of the Fatui must be tiring. Who knows – maybe even the handsome Childe would be willing to take a break from work and turn over a new leaf, so long as he finds the right person.
4 Kaeya, The Dashing Captain
Although he's a bit mischievous from time to time, the charismatic Calvary Captain, Kaeya, still manages to hold a very high status in the nation of Monstadt. Oftentimes when Kaeya shows kindness, he's actually playfully plotting something in the back of his mind. However, it's difficult for anyone to not be taken by his alluring charisma. There's a good reason even the elders around Mondstadt regard him so highly. Behind those dapper looks, Kaeya is a trustworthy and reliable leader.
He's already a well-established, high-ranking member of the Knights of Favonius with looks to kill. All Kaeya needs is a sweetheart to call his own.
3 Zhongli, The Loyal And Gallant Knight
For a great relationship to properly flourish, a partner needs to level themselves to understand their significant other's needs. In this regard, who's more grounded than the Geo Archon himself? Zhongli isn't just tall and handsome; behind those dashing good looks is a gentleman with a vast knowledge of the history of Liyue and its gods.

Zhongli is kind, loyal and most of all, unbiased. When discussing any matter, he remains objective and will undoubtedly be the kind of husband to own up to any mistakes and treat his spouse fairly. Not to mention, as the god of contracts, when he vows himself to someone he will never betray them. The only downside to Zhongli is how often he goes to Childe to take care of bills.
2 Albedo, Hardworking But Lonely
The Chief Alchemist of the Knights of Favonius, Albedo may seem married to his work but he's definitely an interesting person when one gets to know him. Albedo does unfortunately think relationships are a bit taxing and troublesome, but surely he'd get along with a significant other that is as committed to his line of work.
Albedo is a kind and soft-spoken soul, and deserves a life without loneliness. His origins may be a bit of a bump in the relationship. However, with good communication and a spark of understanding from similar work ethic and interests, Albedo has lots of potential to be a great husband. Not to mention, his dulcet voice is enough to calm the heart and make any potential spouse feel right at home.
1 Diluc, The Talented Jack-Of-All-Trades
Not only does Diluc run a successful tavern, but he's incredibly talented in other ways as well. On top of being a responsible business owner, he's a skillful (5 star) swordsman and a well-seasoned musician. During the Windblume Event, it was revealed that Diluc is quite skilled at playing the lyre. In the "Ballads of Breeze" mini-game, Diluc actually holds a top score for unlocking the pro mode reward for the song "Early Dawn".
Diluc is an incredibly well-rounded candidate for a Genshin Impact husband. With his successful tavern and winery, strength, striking good looks, and his dedication to protect Mondstadt, it's no wonder he's got the entire nation in the palm of his hand. It was no wonder that Diluc captured the hearts of fangirls and fanboys alike the moment he made his dramatic entrance.
