#TalkNerdyToMeLover's @nomanmission

In an attempt to take my mind off of life last night I rented a movie. I opted for "Friends with Benefits" featuring Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis. The movie was really good, definitely a chick flick. It was funny and heart warming, plus it had Justin Timberlake in it which is never a bad thing in my opinion. The problem is, just like every other romantic comedy or love story out there it made me long for unrealistic ideals in love. Ironically, the movie often touched on the fact that movies make women in particular want things that just don't happen in real life, yet it had the typical happy; epic love story ending. Damn you, Hollywood!

The movie got me thinking about the whole concept of "friends with benefits". I have never had such a thing because I am just not built that way, but damn I would love to have someone who is my best friend and also my lover. Wait, isn't that what a relationship is supposed to be like? See, I don't get it. What is the point of "friends with benefits"? If a person is your best friend, you can't wait to hang out with them, AND you have amazing sex why wouldn't you want to just make it into a relationship? I am  utterly perplexed by the whole concept. However, at this point in my mission; after not being touched for what feels like a hundred years; knowing that I am emotionally unavailable for an epic love story right now; a F.W.B type situation doesn't sound too bad. Simmer down boys, it is not gonna happen! 6 month no man mission is in full effect.

At the end of this movie I found myself tipsy off a glass of red wine, texting my ex because I was nostalgic, and wishing for my own epic love story featuring me and a sexy leading man who starts out as my friend and turns into my forever. Damn you, Hollywood!

I have always said that I want my life to be like the movies, and I have to admit that it has been in a lot of ways, both good and bad. In fact my life story would make a pretty damn good movie. I have had amazing life experiences, happiness, heartbreak, and my share of epic love stories, but where is my happy ending? Yes, I mean this in more ways than one..he he.

My name is Tiffany, and I am a hopeless romantic who still believes in epic love stories with happy endings and I believe that mine is on it's way.

Damn you, Hollywood!
