How To Be A Romantic Realist

How to be a romantic when you're also a realist :

1. read a lot of fanfiction. 
2. be very very VERY spontaneous
3. lose your rationality
4. deprive yourself of sleep so your brain doesn't catch up with your heart
5. find romance in every single tiny little thing. 
6. wear sunglasses. A lot. 
7. don't keep a diary. 
8. or rather, keep a diary, but write about stupid romantic notions that excite you
9. read a lot of chick lit
10. watch chick flicks
11. practice giggling before you sleep
12. look in the mirror every night and tell yourself three girlish romantic things before going to sleep
13. try not to get your heart broken. 
14. try not to let it overcome you when your heart gets broken
15. don't wait 
16. just jump into it
17. pray a lot
18. cry a lot
19. keep emergency stashes of ice cream, preferably chocolate flavoured
20. don't drink your sorrows away; they just come back two fold









To be honest, you don't need 20 how-tos to be a romantic when you're also a realist. 
You only need one. 
One person. 
Romance can be reality, but how many of us are that lucky?
