I tell my SO all the time she needs to chill out on binge watching Lifetime Movie Network. I swear she tries to live them out in real life sometimes.

Yep. They might as well call it fairy tale TV. It's the modern version of a romance novel and it's on 24/7.

There's a reason why a lot of those movies end when the two love interests get married/together. A Disney movie about what marriage actually is after the wedding wouldn't sell very well.

Yep. Lifetime is awful. I can't take women who watch that network constantly seriously. Its the same thing every time....its just full on garbage.

Not really. So many sitcoms have hot women with ugly men, and they bitch about each other incessantly. I don't see many ideal TV sitcom relationships.



Exactly what I was thinking. The last thing I'd ever want is some fat idiot husband a la King of Queens that I bitch at all the time for being a fat idiot.

Don't forget Facebook. It's inevitable that at least one of her friends is going on vacation or doing something interesting at any moment. She sees it as "everyone but me is doing something fun" and the bitching commences.


My wife's friend just went on a weekend trip to fricking Houston. She asked why we don't take trips like that, completely forgetting that went to San Fran less than two months prior.

I am a woman and I do not buy into the move/tv type relationships. I am a realist and am annoyed by those sappy type stories. I hate romance novels and prefer to read nonfiction because real life is more interesting than some made up story.

I also married a man who is a realist. He does not go for the silly romantic gestures. I do not expect him to. What he does do is infinitely more important and sweet. He will go out in hurricane force rain and wind to get the generator going, he will work in the summer heat to make hay or to hunt alligators to provide for us, and he will do whatever it takes to get the job done. He does not believe in the word "can't". He will find a way to accomplish it.

F*ck getting flowers, sappy cards and "happily ever after". That chit isn't going to help one bit when life gets tough.

Also his ability to make me laugh is sexier than any card or romantic gesture could ever be. If you are going to be a realist, a sense of humor is a great thing to have.
