Everyone has such high hopes when getting into a relationship. Could it be that we have grown up with stories of Snow White and Cinderella? Are we all waiting for our prince to come riding into our lives or are we waiting for our princess for us to save? The truth is that our relationships are NOT always Disney fairy tales. What we can do is try to understand our relationships better to make them something that we are happy with.

I will start off by saying that I am a huge sucker for anything Disney. I think that Disney World is one of the happiest places on the earth. The last time I visited I was with my girlfriend and we had a great time. We were totally taken in with the Magic of the place and we were toally happy. 3 months later she cheated on me. How is that possible? What was going on that I did not not know about?
Our need and want for a relationship that resembles Disney fairy tale often masks what is really going on between us. From my experience, we were to caught up with what was on the surface that we hid how we were really feeling from each other. We let these feelings build up until something bad had to happen. Part of the problem was that we did not understand how each other thought and looked at things. Once we gave it some time and took the time to get everything out, learned all that we possible could about each other and we realized that we had something that was worth putting more time into.
Minnie is always looking out for Mickey. Mickey is always getting Minnie flowers and they are always together. Well we are not mice nor are we drawn into a perfect world. I cannot say with a high degree of certainty that we are always looking for this perfection because we grew up with this Disney world but I would not dismiss the idea quickly. In contrast, if you find yourself thinking that Disney is a perfect world consider this: Beauty had to see the Beast for who he was before she got her prince, Snow White was poisoned and Cinderella was basically a slave before her fairy godmother came along.
The important thing to realize is that we need to work at our relationships. Just like the characters mentioned above had to overcome some type of hurdle to get their happy ending we usually have to make an active effort to learn our relationships.
Instead of trying to have the perfect relationship I would suggest visiting the a perfect place (Disney World) or even just settling for a Disney movie night. The time spent together will help you get to know each other better and make things just a little easier to deal with.

Great post Mikey :-D
I don’t know any girlfriends who still gets flowers from boyfriends these days. haha it seems like the ones that do give them are the type girls don’t like. Different world we live in today.
Funny thing about the flowers. I think it is still one of those long forgotten nice things to do. I try to make a point of getting them for no reason at all. I hate the whole "I messed up so ill get you flowers and it will be ok" thing.
A sign of the times: I recently got my girlfriend flowers and instead of a thank you she took a picture with her blackberry and mobile uploaded it to her facebook to show everyone.
Yeah dude… I’m not saying it doesn’t happen but it’s so uncommon nowadays. The only time you give flowers is to apologize and not because it’s just Tuesday. Funny your gf sent a pic of it to everyone. Shows you how rare it is these days. Lucky girl.
She is a lucky girl… I have to ask for flowers to get them… or it is some sort of apology like was said above.. :-( I would take a picture too!!
