I've heard time and time again that nothing good last forever, and that everything changes. Statements such as these scare me at times, (well, most of the time) because I am a hopeless romantic at heart. Yes, many of you may find that hard to believe, but put away your shock for the moment and pay attention to the topic at hand. When I hear such comments as stated earlier, it scares me because it makes me think that long lasting, even life-long relationships are things that only happen in movies, or to the those extremely lucky people in life. That the people that actually experience life-long love and happiness are exceptions to those rules, and that everyone else will either be stuck in a loveless relationship or live by themselves, lonely and miserable. Maybe I'm just being over-dramatic, but the fact that I see couples break up that I would never guess were unhappy, or when I see a spouse cheat on someone that would do, and has done any and everything to please them, it just makes me lose all hope in love and relationships, and in humanity all together. I know that I am young and I have a lot of heart ache and relationships to endure, but if they are all going to be in vain in the end, why go through it? Why keep getting my heart stepped on and feeling that stab of rejection if in the end I don't find my Prince Charming? Because isn't that what dating is about, a trial and error stage for a person to find a person that they are truly compatible with, to marry and spend their lives together? I guess I'm just looking for somebody to tell me that it is possible for two people to stay together, forever, and stay happy and in love. And not to just say it because it's something I want to hear, but because they truly feel that it is possible, because they've seen it happen, because it has happened to them...or maybe I'm just a dreamer looking for a dreamworld where people can stay in love...
