Is it just me, or is it starting to feel like romantic love is just an illusion?
It's not real.
It's in our imaginations.
It's just all a dream.
And once we wake up, it's all over.
We don't want to wake up from this dream, but we have to eventually.
Romantic love is just an illusion.
If you're in love romantically, it's because you're delusional.
Wake up.
Is it just me, or is it starting to feel that way?
Listen, I'm not trying to be a pessimist at all.
In fact, I'm actually in a really good mood today.
It's Friday when I'm recording this TGif.
So I'm actually in a really good mood.
But I'm just being real, okay?
At least in my silly little brain, it's starting to feel like romantic love is not a real thing, okay?
And I'm not just saying this with no statistics to back it up.
According to the American Psychological association, approximately 40% to 50% of first marriages end in divorce.
The divorce rate for second marriages is even higher, with approximately 60% to 67% of second marriages ending in divorce.
Beyond that statistic, though, it just feels like romantic love is destined to fail.
