Romance, like in the movies.

Does it exist? I realize i may be a little naive when it comes to love.. or maybe I just want to be happy, but i've been searching for prince charming and I really dont think i'll ever find him :(

I've been deeply in love before.. but we didnt have toomany "movie moments' And now i've got myself stuck in something that couldbe great.. but its like..on pause. And its ruining all my other possibilities and GRRR

I'm just STUCK.. and confused.. and don't know what to do, or if I should even bother because maybe "hollywood love" is only found in the movies.

Honestly, I do believe it exists, because I have had those "movie moments"...but really it's just real love. The swoony, grinning from ear to ear moments, perma grins, falling into his arms and crying. ok. not falling, but running. It does happen, just not so staged:)

*sigh* EXACTLY!! Yup, I know exactly wut u mean. I may seem extremely pesimistic about love on the outside but I'm a real big romantic sap. sshhh don't tell anyone. If only everything could be like in the movies, but that's just my fantasy world. I have yet to find my prince charming...who knows if i'll ever have one. *sigh* This thread made me depressed. :P

oh yes. and to add to what I said. It doesn't happen all the time either. I don't think it could...because if it did, don't you think life would be so boring after a while? You need to add some flavour and difficulties to make life and love more exciting.

thanx hun, me too heehee.

I mean I have a great guy.. but we're like.. in the middle.. We're not just friends with benefits.. and we're not in love.. though I could easily be with this guy. I've been to scared to bring things up with him,. and even if I did i'm not even sure if its the right thing for me at this time in my life.

I don't like Hollywood romance, I'm more of a shoujo anime kinda girl. In my years of shoujo anime watching experience I've come to know that no matter what happens, the two people that were meant to be together, always end up together.

Now here's where reality comes kicking in.... there is no such thing as Prince Charming, or whatever, romance nowadays is dead. Infact, it died out a LONG time ago. A boy coming into your life is not going to magically sweep you off your breath and make it all better...

I've had moments where my life seemed like a movie, and sometimes a really poorly acted out soap opera.

Movies are meant to represent moments in time which characterize the protagonist's objectives and theme's objects right. Well, depending on the theme of the person or person's (cuz it takes 2) this so called "movie-romance" could be achieved. Like in the movies life is really only a series of moments, you got to take advantage of them. If you don't they could just pass you by. What you choose to do with them or him/her is up to you both. I've found out that though, these moments are entirely enganging, it's not enough.
It has to be multi-dimensional, which movies and real-life romance is not. There's no truth to a superficial facade. If you get past this moviestar romance bullshit, and all the other cards point support your romance, then perhaps bliss?

movie romance isn't romance, it's schlock.

true romance exists, you just need the right person.

Ragga_Wh0re will become famous soon enoughRagga_Wh0re will become famous soon enough
ur not happy with urself it seems if u really wanted things to happen u would make them happen. Why i say u r un happy with urself... cuz if u were truely happy with urself then u would make things happen. U are un sure and insecure. if u r not sure of urself and insecure I dont think u could have a healthy relationship with anyone. Some bullshit happened tonight and I realized that the reason why these things happened is because I was not happy with myself. Do not sell urself short. Sure being alone sux but get ur shit figured out b4 u try 2 go figure out shit(relationships)ITll save u a whole lotta heart ache and tears... but then again perhaps u need those experiences to better understand urself.

Everything that happens is a lesson learned. If u r unhappy make urself happy.
Ps it sounds like this "guy" is just sticking it to yah
I repeat do not sell urself short
guys r prix fuck em all

LEZBIAN 4 LIFE

I think romance/love like in the movies exist...although I believe that the movies created that "romance wave" themselves....

My last...er....present (?) relationship was fiiilled with "movie moments"....day after day....mostly the sappy, corny, yet incredibly sweet sayings and stuff that every little girl dreams of. Only lately have I seen the confusing, heartbreaking, stressful "movie moments" and the "How Stella got her Groove Back" process...hehe....

Actually, now my (ex?)bf wants to talk about it...and he is saying that he realized he loves me and that he needs me....and all I can picture/fantasize/dream about is him showing up with a big bunch of roses and begging for forgiveness....

Haha...my love life is always like a movie to me....I hear music in my head to suit the occasion (soundtracks).....

Oh, I'm a loser....

The room is cold and has been like this for several months.
If I close my eyes I can visualise everything in it right down
Right down to the broken handle on the third drawer down of the dressing table.
And the world outside this room has also assumed a familiar shape
The same events stuffed in a slightly different order each day.
Just like a modern shopping centre.
And it's so cold - yeah it's so cold.
And as I'm standing across this room
I feel as if my whole life has been leading to this one moment.
And as I touch your shoulder tonight this room has
become the centre of the entire universe.
So what do I do? I've got a slightly sick feeling in my stomach
Like I'm standing on top of a very high building oh yeah.
All the stuff they tell you about in the movies
but this isn't chocolate boxes and roses.
It's dirtier than that, like some small animal that only comes out at night.
And I see flashes of the shape of your breasts and the curve of your belly
And they make me have to sit down and catch my breath.
It's so cold yeah, it's so cold.
What is this feeling called love.
Why me, why you, why here, why now ooh.
It doesn't make no sense no. It's not convenient no.
It doesn't fit my plans no.
It's something I don't understand oh.
F.E.E.L.I.N.G. C.A. double L.E.D. L.O.V.E.
Oh what is this thing that is happening to me.
Oh. What is this feeling called love.
Why me. Why you. Why here. And why now ooh.
It doesn't make no sense no. It's not convenient no.
It doesn't fit my plans but I got that taste in my mouth again oh.

(pulp)

Yeah I've been kinda waitng for the right girl to come in my life too, its good to fuck around and whatever but being with someone you really care about is so much better. I'm not stressin over it though, its not like I've been searching everywhere and expecting every girl I meet to be her. I'm just goin with the flow, if somethin comes up then I'll be able to tell whether shes the right one or not.

I still don't mind being single though, all the shit you go through after the frist one kinda makes you appreciate being single. But eventually somethings bound to happen........its just a matter of when.

Leslie, what's shoujo? You have me curious!

Jenna, I seriously don't understand why you would post this thread. Isn't it better to make your OWN movie instead of plagerising(?) another one like the little mermaid or something? Why copy some one when you can be yourself?

But you can can movie scenes I guess in your love life.. but not have them all.. play your own role, its WAY better!
Well in most cases it is....

Leslie- I know that one day, I will find the person i am meant to be with (hopefully) and that is the man (maybe woman?) I will marry. But i'm impatient :P I want someone to love me to bits, and to show it. Not just with words but with actions.

And I know "prince Charming" doesn't exist. Anyways in most fairy tails the prince has never even met his "true love". He just saves her because he's supposed to.. thats not love. And most movie romance is bullshit too, I'm just using it as an example almost. But it still has the perfect music and so on :P

stina- I get what youre saying but i'm waay to tired to respond :P Brain.. not .. working..

werdy-and I know I need the right person.. but where the fuck is he. And what if I assume hes the right person but he ends up being a 20 yr old stoner/coke head that has a gr 10 education and isn't going anywhere like my first love?
OR ends up fucking around on me or some shit. Basically, at this age.. I know theres no happy endings, (i doubt i'll ever marry a guy i meet at 18) But i still would like one, at least a semi-happy, not wanting to kill the guy ending.

godessa-youve got me all wrong. I'm nowhere near insecure, thats npot the problem. And whether or not I am happy with myself i can't MAKE true love happen.. no one can. You're right on the ball when you say i need to find out more about myself though,. i'm sure thats one of the obstacles. And the guy i'm with loves me to bits, and vice versa. We care ALOT about eachother, primarily as friends and i think thats whats making us hesitant about seeing how great things could be. We don't want to mess up the friendship we have.. so no, hes not just "sticking it to me"

guice- I do appreciate being single.. I think thats why i'm being a little selfish and whiny about the whole "love" situation. it COULD be staring me right in the face but i'm 1) scared, 2) young and horny.

jovi, i dont want to play a mapped out role hun, i just want to be deeply in love again with someone that will do things for me other than bring me flowers or do something sweet on birthdays or major holidays.
Fuck, even flowers would be good. I've recieved one flower in my life and it was plastic.. and sung.. which was cute, but .. :P

ok i'll just stop whining. I think i got my answer. I know life isnt as simple as the prince charming- sleeping beauty scenario. And after the music and the movie ends the people probably fall out of love or have an affair or something.

that does sound cute :P

And jovi i was never really IN love with him. I could easily be but theres a few obstacles in the way. Some I could clear by talking to him which i will hoepfully have the guts for soon. Dont get me wrong, i love the guy to bits, but to me being IN love is different.

yeah, it's kinda hard to be in-love when there is shit keeping you apart from it. maybe it'll work out in the future.
