Chick Flick
Why do women see chick flicks? They always seem like a good idea, but turn out to have disastrous affects on us. At least they do on me.
I wont even say which silly chick flick I saw tonight, because it's doesn't deserve my heartache. When I was in high school it seemed like chick flicks caused crushes on actors. Us girls would get all swoony over some famous cute boy and we would have daydreams of marrying him and having his beautiful babies. But now, these movies just remind me of my singleness, and I pay little attention to the actors and think instead of the principle of the fairytale itself-- "When is this going to happen to me?"
I know this isn't at all new. I know I'm not the first to worry that I will still be single at age 30. I know that movies can make me feel these feelings much more acutely and that in a day or two I will feel differently. What I don't know is why I continue to throw myself into the torment that is the chick flick.
