"Twilight love"

I think the term "Twilight love" should be used to describe "a perfect, unrealistic love that only exists in books"...or something like that.

Once someone reads Twilight, it's like they're a part of this whole new world, a whole new way of thinking and living. And it's like you have a connection with every other Twilight fan you talk to. You can see the fire in their eyes when they talk about it, and you feel that fire inside of you too. It's something you can't really explain or express to someone who hasn't read it. The best analogy I have for it is that it's like a drug; only other ecstasy users knows what ecstasy feels like. (And I'm definitely not saying that I do drugs. Ick.)

I think we all dream of a love that Edward and Bella have, but we're too scared to do anything that would lead us to a love like that (if it even exists). We all want it and understand it, but we don't actually know how to obtain it. You can see in peoples' faces how badly they want something like that. I know I do. It seems so impossible.

But I think the secret to obtaining this is quite simple: Throw away your worries and fears, and show that you CARE about someone.

Forget about being afraid of heartbreak, forget about being afraid of looking stupid. Just do it! Heartbreak hurts, yeah, but you learn to mend with time, or learn to fake it enough to convince yourself that you ARE mended, even if you aren't.

Just....LOVE.

It's that simple.

(and sorry if this is full of me contradicting myself)
