No fairytale

What do you do when the man you thought you knew, the man you cherished and cared for does a move that completely throws you off guard? How are you supposed to respond? Are you supported to just nonchalantly throw him out of your life? Are you supposed to forgive him or what he put you through? See here’s the funny part. He told me all of it.. He told me there would be no emotional attachment, he told me there would be no relationship, he is the way he is and that was the end of it. Although in my mind, it wasn’t. I thought I could make him into someone who wanted me. If I said and did all the right things, he would magically change his ways and see the truth. That we were made for each other, that there was no way in hell that we weren’t supposed to be together.
    
     Then I realized, unlike the life I wish I could lead. This is not like the story about Cinderella where he see’s her, says she is gorgeous, she loses her shoe, he finds her and they life happily ever after. This is more the real life story. He see’s her, thinks she is cute, flirts with her, makes her think she has a shot and then leaves her in the dark with nothing but her mind in a cloud of smoke going, where did I go wrong? Hell of a fairytale if you ask me. Maybe they should just flat out make books like that so that women will not grow up thinking fairytale’s exist. The imagination would eventually catch on. Someone will eventually come up with their own fairytale in their head and live happily ever after in their own world. We all have our own fairytale, some of us want to be movie stars and others want to be lawyers, some of us want to live in the country and nothing pleases some of us more then to live in the city. In the end you make up your own happy ending, so then why do so many people end up unhappy?
    
     What is the one thing that can make all your hurt and pain go away? Love. And what is the one thing that also can do the opposite? Pain, anguish, and just downright depression. Love. So why do we do it? Why do we constantly get into the battle of love? Why love at all? For some of us, it is the chance of finding a happy ending that is the best part, for others it is the chase that we love, for some even it might be the idea that love can conquer all. No matter what… through thick and thin, through rocks and oceans. The idea that Mr. Perfect is out there someplace still makes us all smile. It’s just finding him that is most the battle.
