I have a love-hate relationship with rom-coms.
(If you don't know what that is, here's a hint: Romantic Comedies)

Every single one is the same and every single one makes me feel the same way after I'm done watching it.
I'm not too sure if Rapunzel is considered a rom-com coz its a Disney animated film, but essentially, it has the same plot as all the other 'adult'(no I do not mean x-rated here) rom-coms out there.

Girl is sad(and attractive).
Girl meets boy who is an unlikely match(usually under strange circumstances).
Boy turns out to be the perfect match(and also happens to be very attractive).
Girl has trust issues with boy even though he makes her very happy.
Certain event(past coming back to haunt, misunderstanding etc,) causes girl to leave boy(crying while doing so usually).
Boy does something to salvage the situation(or girl realizes her folly).
And they live happily ever after.

I LOVE IT.
And I can't get enough of it. Even though they're all the same, I still am very drawn to them. Just can't help it. Maybe because the circumstances are always a bit different. Like they have different jobs, and they lead different lives. Thus the scenery is different and the jokes are different and they always lead interesting lives and have random jobs like cheese farming. Is that even the right term? o.o

But anyway, I love them coz they show me a perfect love. And I am naive enough to believe that whatever they have, I can have too. And I really want to have what they have. So badly. So very badly that I hate the movie for showing it to me. Because its so FREAKING HARD to get it! And then I just end up moping over how my life is so miserable because I haven't found the perfect love. Because I've never done all those romantic things in beautiful places with anyone. I've never been able to be so free and easy with anyone like they can. URGH. So annoying! Stupid sluts.

But its alright. I don't blame them. I know it's not everyday that you meet someone wonderful who ends up being your soulmate. So I will continue to strive and search for that perfect Love. The one that will make nothing else matter(as much). Sigh. As I like to quote(because I feel it very true), my Myers Briggs personality test very kindly informed me that I am an Idealist. So yes, I am an Idealist. I kinda like the fact that I am an Idealist. But that's besides the point. Point is, I'm not ready to settle for anything less than perfect at the moment. Not anytime soon I believe.

So whoever you are, wherever you are, wait for me. Coz I will find you. I WILL find you.

Rapunzel was a good movie. I liked it very much.
