1. Apparently, I either have to be so beautiful everyone chases after me, or so unique no one knows what to do with me, in order to get anyone’s romantic attention.
2. Because I’m fairly certain I’m neither of the above, I shall be forever alone.
3. I will never be able to breathe properly around my love interest, either because of my unmentionables (damn corset) or because he looks so delicious I hyperventilate into a faint.
4. When I fall in love it will be with someone who probably doesn’t deserve it.
5. My romantic interest will have a rake’s past, and therefore, the sexual infections that come along with all those bed adventures.
6. One or both of my parents will die before I meet my romantic interest, meaning I will doubt his interest in me over my inheritance (which, let’s be honest, will probably not be very much).
7. When I catch my romantic interest’s gaze across the room, our gaze will burn so hot we might cause people to spontaneously combust.
8. I will want to have sexy time with him every time I see him. This will prove to be inconvenient should I see him in church.
9. My romantic interest will have a brooding past, which the books tell me is supposed to make him irresistible. I now fear for my sanity.
10. The first time I have sexy time with my romantic interest, it will either be mind-blowingly good, or so bad I’m crippled.

What about you?

Best, Belinda
