S2 Love Me Like the Movies Entry I of III

I’m addicted to love stories, yes it’s true. I’m a hopeless or,
rather, a hopeful romantic. Love Jones, Brown Sugar, Poetic Justice, Something’s
gotta give, 50 first dates, and one of my favorites Eternal Sunshine of the
Spotless Mind. I’m just a sucker for a good love story. I wouldn’t say I’m so
much of a sucker for love, but I would love to be in one of those stories. But
how realistic are the movie’s “love story” compared to real life “love Stories”?.
If we took some of the sweetest scenarios from the movies and made them
reality. Most wouldn't work. Like running to the airport at the last minute or
holding a boom box outside a girls window. Airport security is stupid crazy and
standing outside someone’s window might get you arrested or shot by her father
or something. Don't get me wrong the ideas are lovely, and I love to watch
them. But I can't see it actually happening. So without it being over
exaggerated what is a real love story? That's a real question. I don't have all
the answers I just know that when I'm in love I turn into a fighter. I fight to
keep that love. I fight to stay in love and if I think love is slipping I fight
to rejuvenate it. I'll be everything I need to be for a woman that deserves it.
I believe in true love and believe it is to be cherished. So when a girl asked
me while we were listening to a KEM song, "do men really talk like that to
women" my responses was yes I do and I have. I guess I'm part of the old
school or my image of love has been tainted by love movies and love songs.
