I was talking to my friend just now and he says, jokingly I'm sure, that I underestimate how lucky I am. I realised he's right. Then I got sad. Sure, I have everything I wished for a few years back.... well, not everything....
Anyway, I also realised that getting the things I wanted hasn't made me happy. I thought once I got my own place and was

*hug* Romantic love isn't always fullfilling too though.. and that sense of romance tends to fade a couple years into marriage... XDXD hahaha! so it's really about finding happiness, but nothing of the world can supply that (rich people who have everything are proof of that lack of fullfillment in worldly things).
So.. I'll pray for you, k? ^_^ Even if you don't believe in spiritual things maybe, but still I'll pray. Cuz I lurves you <3

To play the devil's advocate: What makes you think romantic love will make you happy?
IDK. My views on love are not the norm, so take what I say with a giant grain of salt. Personally, I think romantic love is idealistic (and if you want the history of the social construction of the concept of "romantic love" and its connection to women as a commodity and the rise of consumer society, ask me sometime). I don't think love can solve most of the world's problems. And monogamy is something that we've been socialized to believe in, but that rarely exists in real life.
I can't put my hope in romantic love -- especially "perfect love" -- since it does not exist. Don't get me wrong: there can be romantic love, but it is never perfect, and always requires large amounts of energy to maintain. (The only thing I'd want romantic love for is companionship, and I have great friends for that.)
Anyway, I guess I'll just sit and be patient, put on my ( ... )

I don't put my hope in anything these days, but I do believe in monagamy. I refuse to one day be married to someone only to have them off doing.... things... with someone else. It'd tear me apart.
I know there is no such thing as Prince Charming, and I'm not asking anyone to be perfect, I'm just asking for someone to want to be with me because they like me for who I am, not who I should be, and not because of sex or anything like that.
I dunno... it's hard to explain? >.>;;
P.S. How's my icon for a distraction? ^_~
