Yes, I am obsessed with sappy, romantic, love stories. I can go all day long listening to different stories anything related about love. I always have this feeling that whenever I read a book or watch a movie it seems like I am the girl in that story. I put myself into the character's shoes and it feels like I am a different person. In some way, watching movies, reading books, listening to love songs and even looking at pictures are keeping me sane. It makes me believe that I still know how to feel in love. Every time a story have a crappy ending, by which I mean the couple I am "shipping" doesn't end up together, I cry, I cry my heart out. I would sob for days that sometimes last for weeks or months but I don't mind. I sure have fictionally dated a lot of guys by now. Personally, It sure feels way better than real life.
I've dated a soldier who would never get tired in saving my life and me saving his whenever he showed up in the hospital from a special mission. A guy with one leg who would give me his "Genie wish" to meet my favorite author in Amsterdam. An underground boxer who isn't afraid of anything but afraid of losing the love of his life, me. A vigilante turned to superhero who would marry me and my nerdy blabbering mouth. A tribute who would make me feel that love is real. A band member who would never get bored with me going to an opera. A rich quadriplegic who changed me into a whole new person and made me go to Paris for my adventure of a lifetime. 

The list goes on forever but I know all of this don't happen in real life. In real life, they will say sweet words but never mean it. They will promise that they will never leave you but leave you hanging one day. They will fuck up your feelings until there is nothing left for you. And, you don't want to believe in love anymore. 

But, I am still hoping that one day I will find mine. The one who will make me feel that reality is better than fantasy. It might not be as romantic as the books and movies at least I have my own love story to tell.
