Everyone knows, okay perhaps not everyone but only people close to me, would know how I am a sucker for romantic stuffs, korean dramas, the whole prince charming in shining armour/frog prince package. I would really like to blame it on disney, or the whole korean drama for leading me to live in this whole warped idea of love/relationships or whatever kind. But when young, as a young kid of course the whole princess-y thing is what makes up your childhood. How about when a person gets older? Did this disney thing lead us to have a false idea of happily ever afters? Do happily ever afters even exist? Or perhaps disney mentioned that the prince and princess lived happily ever after, but with each other? Or they probably forgot to mention all the arguments, disputes experienced, hurt feelings. Cause after all, some things are better left unsaid? It was actually all good till a few years ago I found out the "truth" about little mermaid and I got so affected, I cried. I didn't know why i got so affected then and kinda went "thats bullshit", but thinking back, it might actually be true?
Someone very important was telling me that day that what is shown in korean dramas, don't happen and thats why we watch them. Cause they never happen in real life. There's no kissing in the rain, running after another on a bus, cooking porridge when the other is sick and staying by their side. Well, and people don't wake up looking that good or even when drenched in water/mud, smelling that great, for the matter right? People kiss, but not in the rain. People kiss cause maybe they are drunk? Or cause they just want to? When people get sick, a "take care, drink more water, remember to take your medicine" text is probably one of the best you can expect. Guys in the korean dramas don't want much physical contact from you, perhaps just a kiss and then next scene! In real life? I can't be too sure its the same. People have morning breath when they wake up, and cmon, they're hair isn't always perfectly styled, and clothed in such fancy pyjamas. More of rags? Hahahahah.
But then again, if you are able to accept the good and bad, then thats what you call real love right? And thats the whole challenge. Love isn't easy. Nobody said it was. Its definitely not as easy as saying it. Everyone can say it, few can mean it. It can be shown in many different ways. Does not necessarily need to be in a particular way that is conventional, cause different people have different ways of showing it. It might not be very obvious, might not be the way you want it to be, but whatever it is, when its real you will know it. There's no right or wrong.
