Right now, the novel I'm reading is "Lessons in heartbreak". At first, I thought it was a boring book but when I got to about chapter 4, I started to like it specially with the 90 year old gran's story about her life as a servant in a known aristicrat in their town, how she hated it and escaped from there to become a nurse etc... I felt like being there, like I was stuck in the earlier days and it felt good. I like the feeling to be like in the past. Like time travel it's so amazing. That's why I like reading, it takes me to deifferent places, different situation, different times and sometimes i can pick up lessons that can be applied in real life. SO now, I prefer to read books rather than watch those happy endings movie like fairy tales which feeds up my mind about the perfect relationship and promises yet in real life, it doesn't happen that way so I prefer novels now. Bitter much? Or just being careful and reality? LOL

You're just being a reality chick. However, you can have a marriage made in heaven if you find your soul mate!
