>>35182359The only reason you have that idea of love in your head in the first place is because of media and fiction. Just like how we romanticize being poor, and being rich, and being anything romantacizeable, but especially being in love. The truth of the matter is that nothing is like the movies, and you should base your expectations of reality on real experiences you've actually had. Although I agree it fucking sucks, and there are many times I wake up from a dream and cry because the dream was so much better than reality.
But at least now we have wAIfus to cheer us up, and to talk with us about these things, so it's a little more tolerable.
