True love doesn't exist. "Love" never lasts. I've witnessed it first hand but somehow, deep down, I still want a soul-linking, all-consuming, epic love. A love that never fades, overcomes all obstacles, and lasts forever. A love that just doesn't exist. How ironic; I'm named after one of the most influential female romance novelists of the 19th century and I couldn't be any less romantic. I don't date, I don't do feelings, and I do not say "I love you". Summer hookups, meaningless flirtation, and leading men on- that's my specialty. Everyone knows that.
