Reality Bites



One night

One Call

One small secret revelation

She whispers between the voices of her pain

"I sabotage my own relationship... I wonder whether I'll be able to make any relationship work"





Oh baby,

I really want to tell you...


that we are fucked up



Fucked up by Disney.. That's what I really wanted to tell you
We grow up watching these movies....
Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty..... thinking that we are the damsel in distress and we need a knight in shining armor to save us..

There's even a whole disorder named after one of disney character

Cinderella Complex

Described as an unconscious desire to be taken care of by others, based primarily on a fear of being independent.



This complex is named after the fairy tale character Cinderella, popularized by the Disney movie of the same name. It is based on the idea of women that the story portrays, as being beautiful, graceful and polite but who cannot be strong independent characters themselves, and who must be rescued by an outside force, usually a man (e.g. the Prince). Any strong female characters who do have power are seen as wicked and nefarious (e.g. the stepmother).




We really do have to applaud them..
We've been really screwed, man..

Well baby,
Wake up and the smell the stinkin' roses ..
Nobody will save us
No knight, No Prince Charming that will come in their white horse, bring us glass slipper and wake us from our 1000years of sleeping
Happily Ever After is overrated
1 out 2 marriage ends up in divorce
And I bet the other half just hate each other and stay for the sake of the kid
If the statistic doens't make you depressed, I don't know what else

Even Barbie and Ken have a famous on-off relationship
and Barbie has thirty-eight recorded pets, owned pink convertibles, trailers, jeeps, holds a pilot's license, and lacking 17 to 22 percent body fat required.
If she can't make it, I don't know who else

As sabotaging your relationship..
you're not Barbie and he's not prince charming that will save you
So I say....
If you're lucky enough to find one person that can make your stomach twist
you hold on to it and embrace it

These days you'll be lucky if you can find someone that you can live with
even when ideally you want to find someone that you can't live without
