Good day, bloggers! Finally, after a long break, we’re back and in bigger, better shape – new layout and greater surprises in STORE for you!

Remember: keeping love real shouldn’t always lean towards the romantic side. There are various kinds of love that when found, can change our lives forever and need not be with the opposite sex. Our true friends, families and even our pets are one of the many reasons we should celebrate life and embrace love in all its (de)formities!

To kick start this year, however, let’s give in to the talk of the town, the movie, Twilight.

Edward Cullen – all the girls (or at least 98% of the girls) sigh at the idea of seeing him in real life (sadly, he doesn’t exist) or better, ending up with him in real life. I’ve cited down few of the many reasons why he’s quite the breath-taker.

He’s a vampire. Girls always want to know that there is something unique about the guy they’re dating. Whether it’s the hair or the mysterious vibe, they want to know there’s something to decode. Never would we want to date boring guys, half-way through the date we might lose half of our sense, and half our humor.

A true gentleman. He is too sincere and the way he selects the words he chooses for Bella – again, too breath-taking. He is an import from the 17th century – talk about authenticity. His way of “handling” Bella is how we, girls, even in the 21st century, want to be treated.
Good looks – piercing eyes, defined jaw line and great body exterior. But true, that all-too-white complexion got us quite zoned out.

Great fashion sense. One must admit, when a guy dresses chic, we drool in despair. Aside from good looks, we needed those get-ups to just fall, I quote, madly deeply in love with him – or the idea of him.

But let’s not get ahead ourselves, though the idea of Edward Cullen is what we’ve always dreamt of, there is much more to life than dreaming of the idea of him living and being with us. There’s a reason why he isn’t – if he was, we’d simply be infatuating over him and that is not love at all.

When dating or you’re already in a relationship with someone, never commit the mistake of comparing him to Edward. I repeat, NEVER. And I bet you’re thinking that you’re not that stupid -- but trust me, people do find themselves in this phase where they are hooked on Edward.

Point: Learn to draw the line between the existent and non-existent. Your relationships will not grow if you keep comparing him to an all-too perfect man. The guy you’re going to be with or if you don’t have one now, the one you’ll be with in the future has his own special quality that will make him the perfect guy for you. Lora Garcia, author of KEEPLOVEREAL, once said: “There’s no such thing as finding Mr. Right, we make the one were with Mr. Right.”
