Don’t worry, you’re one broken heart closer to love; words I’m sure not just women but men as well have heard one to many times. Surely, you’ve all been in love and naive and believe in “love at first sight,” but it’s a worn-out phrase that’s lost all meaning. “I was taking a walk, minding my own business when, BAM!

Love doesn’t come in the blink of an eye. In the beginning a relationship is like a mini version of a honey moon, where everything is like something straight out of a romance novel written just for you. You don’t enumerate all your flaws and expose all your demons on the first date, that would be preposterous. Regardless that most love movies are structured that way because society abstracts all the bad moments with a happy ending. It’s very few movies that demonstrate a real-life obstacle in love. In the epic movie, The Fault in Our Stars, Hazel Grace Lancaster (female lead) knows she’s a ticking bomb ready to detonate who doesn’t want to hurt Augustus Waters (male lead) yet falls in love with him even though the tables turn and he becomes the ticking bomb.

If a man isn’t this perfect she begins to undermine all while pushing him away and then later mopes about living alone forever in an apartment with their thirty cats.

All these insinuations that a perfect date has to be expensive to demonstrate that you are interested in the other person are all based on the propaganda this society has constructed. Valentine’s Day has become a holiday where it is required to buy them jewelry or Christmas has become a time where everyone starts saving for her Gucci bag or that new system for his car. God forbid you forget their present because this is when expecting vs. the reality of love begin to seem as one. Where couples’ break-up or begin to settle because the flaws that you once accepted become a nuisance and their small imperfections become the only thing you see now. You begin to realize that those different opinions you decided to over look is really something you don’t agree with and now have to be right when the topic resurfaces. You realize that what you had isnt there anymore and feel overwhelmed with and empty
