I’ve watched a lot of movies in my day. And in every girly movie there is a guy. Not just any guy; a cute, built, smart and sexy guy who is also nice and thoughtful. There are guys like that in reality, I’m not saying that there aren’t, the only difference is that they are not as common in real life like they are in movies.
I’ve come across many stunning men, and some of them have been interested – don’t be too surprised people! The only problem is, if they are stunning then chances are, they’re an ass.
People have said that the really nice guys are right under our noses and this is probably true but us girls – and I include myself in this statement – tend to do the inevitable ‘friendzoneing’. We chase after the handsome jackasses and run away from the guys who might actually treat us right.
I’m going to blame this on the movies – mainly because I don’t want to blame my naïve self. In those girly chick flicks that we all watch, the geek gets the hottest guy in school. So we all wish we could be them. Sometimes we do get to be them and good things do happen, and it may be movie like and amazing but in reality those ripped, chizzled men are the ones we should stay away from. Those relationships usually end up with you sitting in bed watching the Notebook with a big pot of Ben and Jerry’s Cookie Dough ice cream.
But that’s why we love them; we love to dream that we are Rachel McAdams or Kate Hudson. If we didn’t have these soppy girly movies then what would we fantasise while getting ready for your first day of secondary school, your first date or your first school dance?
The truth is we love to pretend we’re Anne Hathaway with the dream job and perfect boyfriend. That’s how us ordinary girls get through secondary school! And what’s the harm of fantasising about having Channing Tatum to come home to? Absolutely nothing!
It might take a while but we will all find that Mr Right. And he might not have been the popular guy in school, but he’s the one that you want to spend the rest of your life with, he’s the one that you can talk to about anything. He will not only be your boyfriend/ husband but also your best friend. And ladies, that’s all we can ever ask for!
