High Expectations

There may be exceptions to this, but this entry pertains to those of considerably legitimate relationships.

I am guilty of complaining because maybe sometimes I am a hopeless romantic. Every girl has her envisioned fairy tale and when some things don't go her way, well, dissatisfaction occurs and then complaining commences.

Do you ever wish that he/she would whisper sweet nothings in your ear more often? Do you ever wish he would do this or do that just because you like it? Do you have a certain standard that he/she has to live up to but somehow it doesn't ever seem to happen?

Well, I don't know how else to say it but ... here it is below... hope that gets you thinking.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you the best way they know how.

  1. Something you should also think about is:
    Are you doing all those things that you wish he/she did for you because he/she knows you like, for him/her? (man that's confusing, let's stick to one pronoun;) IF you expect him to do those things you like, just because he can. Are you doing the things he likes because you can?

  2. Yes, I should've definitely mentioned the Golden Rule that applies to all aspects of life.

    "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."

  3. I don't necessarily feel that way about other people but, from a guy's perspective, I don't know what "sweet nothings" are exactly, or what to do with them, or how or when to whisper them. Your quote is accurate, I guess, but in that case maybe do a how-to on what would actually make girls satisfied with guys who aren't from their favourite fairy tale or teen vampire movie.

    Or maybe we should stop comparing life to the mmmovies, the mmmedia and, uh, stories and stuff.

  4. First of all, I love the my girl reference (one of my favourite movies ever). Secondly, I think every girl has a little bit of a charlotte york deep down, which means our expectations are probably never totally met.

    I totally agree with the quote you posted. Just because a guy doesn't hand you 24 long stemmed roses on a first date, does not mean he is a lost cause. Sometimes people just need hints ;)
