Jonsing for Love

I have hood rat tendencies but I'm really a softie when it comes to love. So I was watching my favorite movie, "Love Jones" the other day and I got to thinking between scoops of my oreo cookie blizzard, am I doing myself a disservice by watching these types of movies? Do romantic flicks ruin our perception of real relationships? Am I wrong to be waiting for my "Darius?" Discuss...

In many ways, I'm still waiting on that perfect "date" myself. But I won't be holding up life to see another movie again.

THAT'S LOVE!

I hate that they attempted to make a happy ending by having him chase after her train (that wouldn't really happen) and for them to meet up a year later and still want eachother (that wouldn't happen either)

That is one of my fav movies of all times tho - it was romantic, beautifully shot with a great soundtrack - LOVED IT!
