Blog #9 Expectations and Reality When Getting a Boy/Girl Friend

Expectation

I am always faced by this question- which quality do you look for in your boyfriend? I start to give a list of qualities that I expect that my boyfriend should have. I am sure a lot of people have this kind of list in their mind. For girls, their boyfriend has to be handsome, tall, rich, caring, understanding and protective, have giant muscles etc.



Reality

For boys, their girlfriend has to be beautiful, charming, cute, caring, not possessive etc. Everyone likes to believe that one day their dream boy or dream girl will come into their life and change their life for better. Some people find their dream partner and some people don’t. Most of the time people have to compromise. It is never possible to get all the qualities in one person. If the person is good looking, he is not rich. If he is rich, he is not caring. The more you expect, the more you will be disappointed. Reality is not like a dream.
