 / 

reminders Hopeless Romantic In You

You know you are a hopeless romantic when the word ‘love’ is enough to cause butterflies in your stomach, and a flutter in your heart.

Youโ€™re the type of person who grew up on a steady diet of romantic comedies โ€” you know every word to Youโ€™ve Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle, and 10 Things I Hate About You. You always knew Pacey and Joey would wind up together. You were torn up about the whole Brenda/Dylan/Kelly love triangle. You got mad at Ross when he and Rachel were on a โ€œbreak.โ€ Your heart cannot even begin to handle all thatโ€™s wrapped up in Greyโ€™s Anatomy.

You believe in soulmates, and you still make wishes on shooting stars.

You, dear friend, are a hopeless romantic. You believe in love, and thatโ€™s hard to understand for some people, so they will try and burst your rosy bubble. Theyโ€™ll laugh at you and scoff at you and think that youโ€™re just naive.

Sometimes it can be hard to tune out such negative voices, so here are some reminders for when the haters try and take you down. 

19 Little Reminders For The Hopeless Romantic In You

1. Being a hopeless romantic is a beautiful thing โ€” thereโ€™s nothing hopeless about it.

2. It means you believe in love.

3. It means you love to love.

4. It means that your heart is bold, big, and beautiful โ€” and believe me when I say the world needs more hearts like yours.

5. At one point, youโ€™ll fall in love with a person who is wrong for you. Donโ€™t panic; it happens.

6. Just because you fell in love with someone wrong for you doesnโ€™t mean thereโ€™s something wrong with them or with you. Sometimes itโ€™s just not a good fit.

7. There is someone whoโ€™s right for you.

8. Your perfect version of love might not seem like a Tom Hanks movie. Or a Meg Ryan movie. Or a Tyler Perry movie. Or any of your favorite romantic comedies. This doesnโ€™t mean that your love is any less romantic โ€” different strokes for different folks.

9. Your perfect version of love might look like a Tom Hanks movie. Or a Meg Ryan movie. Or a Tyler Perry movie. And, if thatโ€™s the case, thatโ€™s amazing. And I might suggest getting in touch with Mr. Hanks, Ms. Ryan, or Mr. Perry to get that movie deal started.
