A Hopeless Romantic

The title pretty much sums it up! That is what I like to classify myself as. I love "love". The idea of love, being in love, everything about love. I just think it is just the most amazing thing in the world :) Just the idea of being able to share your life with someone, is amazing in itself.

I was in love once, so I know the feeling. And trust me, it is the most amazing emotion you could ever feel :) Nothing tops being in love with someone, and having them love you back just as much. Not all things work out though, but I do have my beliefs. Since I am a hopeless romantic, I believe all those cheesy lines. Love at first sight, knowing when someone is your soul mate, etc. I do believe I have a soul mate waiting for me in this world, maybe I have already met him, and maybe not. But I do believe this will be the year to change that. I have my hopes :)

As most people wish, I too sometimes wish my life was like an 80's movie. (as said in the movie Easy A). Everything was so romantic back then. I guess in general, I just wish my romantic life was like the movies! I know one day I will meet my prince charming ;) hahaha! And I always hope deep down, it will play out just like a romantic movie. Just like how John Cusack held up that boombox to express his love to that girl. Or even like in The Notebook, where they both run up to each other and kiss in the middle of the rain. Ahhh... -sighs happily- Just sooo romantic! :)

It's hard to find nice guys out in the world, willing to devote themselves entirely to being an incredible over-the-top boyfriend. Going out of their way for you, always surprising you, constantly telling you how much they love you. Guys like that are hard to find I tell ya! :( It's a search I have to keep on going through. I just hope, I find a guy like that. Who truly loves me for all that I am. Who will go out of his way to make romantic gestures. Like set up a lighted dinner in the middle of the park for our anniversary, or something :) Who will sprinkle rose petals all around the bedroom haha! Just playing. I am not that picky. But, I can always dream right? ;) Just a simple candlelit dinner would be nice! A guy who will randomly surprise me with roses or gifts, just to remind me how much he loves me. The little things are always nice... and often get overlooked. I know one day, I will find my soul mate, and it will be worth it :)

I may be asking a lot out of my boyfriend, but trust me, I would be just as loving in return. I have a lot of love in me, that I am willing to give out and share with someone. When I am with someone, I fully devote myself to them. I am the type of girl who would go out of her way just to be with someone, or make them happy. I would make sure to remind them of how much I love them everyday. I would make sacrifices for them. I would spend my life, trying to better theirs. I would really care about their happiness. I think that is a strong part of a relationship. Always looking out and being there for one another.

I don't ask for much in a relationship to be honest. Aside from the whole, hopeless romantic part of me, I just want someone to love me for who I am. Someone funny who knows how to make me laugh to cheer me up. Someone sensitive and caring enough, to actually talk to me about my problems. Someone who is always there for me. Just someone I can be myself around. Who I can talk to about anything, and be completely honest with. In the end, all I want is to marry my best friend :) I think that is the only way to be truly happy in a marriage.

Valentine's Day was great today. Even though I was single, I still enjoyed every bit of it :) I got to go on a make believe date with my friend Chip haha! It sounds very silly, but it was actually very cute. He put a lot of thought into it! I also got a valentine card from my friend Andrew, which was really nice. Both made me smile :) My parents also gave me a stuffed animal and chocolates! Some giant Mrs. Field's heart-shaped cookies, and chocolate covered strawberries as well. And quite a few of my friends wished me a Happy Valentines Day and asked me to be their valentine! It was all very nice, and I felt very loved. I am thankful for all my friends and family. It just goes to show you, that even if you don't have a significant other in your life at the moment, that all you really need is the support and love from your friends and family :)
