What happens when the butterflies go away…?, when that giddy laugh fades away….?, when that can’t stop thinking about him/her look dwindles…?
Romantic Movies have happy ever afters because everything starts and ends with the honeymoon phase….We don’t see the grind, the day-to-day efforts of making love work….But in reality we grow out of the honeymoon phase and we begin to realize that there is practicality that comes with keeping real love alive….certain quality traits surface that we don’t like, that aren’t ideal, that were hidden in the beginning and we struggle, we fight, we break-up and make-up trying to hold on to the honey moon…we want it to last because movies imply that they do….
….Yes those butterflies feel damn good and we should enjoy them while they last BUT we should also accept it when they are gone…
