For someone who has never been in a serious relationship before (and by serious relationship, I mean never even been on a date. Had a first kiss though...more on that later...), I've come to wonder...just how different RL relationships are from the movies, books and t.v shows.
You see it all the time; The situations in relationships are either reduced to slapstick humor or dramatized to fit the sappy soundtrack in the background. A funny clip from a movie could be a clusterf%^$$^ of epic proportions in real life, while a serious bat#%@ crazy fit from your ex that could be forcing you to call the police could be turned into something hilarious in a t.v show.
So, to everyone who has been or is still in a relationship with someone (whether it be long term or short term), what's realistic and what's not? Where is the line between reality and fiction?
In short, what are relationships really like?
I'm asking becasue I feel like the younger generation is copying behaviour and expectations from movies and tv that are simply not realistic. Maybe it's just me getting older (And I'm only 19. God, I'm weird :p).
So yeah, share your stories, tell me if anything bats$%#@ crazy has ever happened to you while in a relationship. Tell me if it's movie-worthy...just...tell me so I don't feel bad bout my lack of experience. Christ, I swear, I feel like I'm on a different planet sometimes....
