In the movies, there's always a goody two shoes nerd and a leather-jacket-wearing bad boy. She takes off her glasses and plucks her eyebrows and suddenly, she's a bombshell! They fall in love and long story short, they ride off into the sunset together and live happily ever after. Bullshit. This is MY love story. There won't be a knight in shining armor or a happy ever after. I'm not a secret model or princess. Kissing boys doesn't taste like chocolate or freaking strawberries. This is a real, down to earth tale of my search for love and how I found it.
