Dating someone who lives through books and who lives through movies just to feel something... you are going to have to be patient and understanding. Because these people have never felt a love from someone so beautiful. And what's dangerous is the fact that they have lived their life hoping for a love like the book they read, for the movie they watched. And this is where you need to be patient and understanding.
Be patient, don't think that just because they lived their lives in a world that is made up, that they will always think they will need a world like that.
Don't runaway.
Stay.
Be patient and teach them, show them that reality is not on a t.v. screen.
It's not in a world that you paint in your head, but that you will show them that they can depend on you and you will love them with everything you have.
That you will believe in their love.
That you will fight for them.
Show them the world outside the pixalated screen.
Show them that although it's not the world they imagined, it is a world worth living and fighting for.
Lastly, be understanding.
Understand from their point of view.
That they have not felt a love so strong or a love so beautiful.
That they want someone to look at them at 5 in the morning with no make-up on, to look at them like they are the most beautiful creature on this earth.
To have small, but amazing moments.
To have someone to hate and love at the same ******* time.
To have someone they can trust.
Understand that all they ******* want is to be shown how to love, and alongside have someone love them.
