I always have dreamed of my happy ever after. What girl doesn't? I had my whole life planned out, my whole man planned out. Who knew someone could come into you life and change everything. He makes you realize all your planning was worthless and a waste of time, because he is the one for you. I hate to break it to all you dreamers and idealists out there, but he is not the man you thought you would marry.
I dreamed of a sophisticated man who was intelligent and had a serious charm to him. He had this perfect smile and the perfect name. He was only an inch taller than me, but somehow it seems perfect.
All this dreaming of the perfect guy would set me up for a life load of disappointment and maybe never getting into a relationship because of my unrealistically high expectations. Right? Wrong. I dated in high school. one or two guys. Then, I also had my fair share of boyfriends in college. In college I had maybe two or three boyfriends. Yes, I know. It is a low number of guys, but I have never felt the need to constantly have a boyfriend. I am independent and strong on my own, but I always, obviously, dreamed of getting married. That dream came true, but not with the Aaron my mind picked out, but my special man, Mr. Lee Kwangmin.
Now you have to realize that Kwangmin isn't the exact opposite of Mr. Serious-and-Intelligent Aaron, but he definitely has his differences. Wait, you won't fully understand everything I am saying unless you hear my whole romance story. So stay and sit tight while I start from the beginning.
Enjoy :)
