Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by Nobody: 10:17pm On Nov 23, 2009
They are always so naive, utopistic and really dumb.

. . .hmn. The novels or the girls who read the novels.
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by Nobody: 10:29pm On Nov 23, 2009
Both the novels and the girls. I am in Italy and there is this dumb writer who thinks he knows it all about the new generation. His books are very popular among the teens and I must say it is a shame.

We have teenage girls who can't reason their way out of a situation. How can you possibly read of an impossible love on a piece of paper and think you can apply the same thing in real life? The author may tell you all sort of shit to make his work sell, but for goodness sake you living this life know things aren't like that.

Most novels, whether romance, love or others are fictional works.
To think that any gal wud apply those loads of crap into real-life r/ships is absurd.
No wonder many of 'em don't last in their r/ships.
And as 4d writer of such works, is all about making d money.
That's why they say BS sells well.

Why don't people who read violence comics pick up a gun and start shooting anyone on sight. . .

Or those that read horror novels imagine themselves become vampires?

Why is it that girls who read love novels try to apply what a poverty stricken author wrote just to rid himself of his condition. sad

Nah. . .it just takes some longer to separate reality from fiction or not let fantasy overshadow reality undecided
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by Nobody: 6:32pm On Nov 24, 2009
Ohhh please, it doesn't make you dumber in love unless you were dumb before.

Yea, ice maiden is aight, cus we already have an iice queen. An iice queen who's yet to be seen. grin

@OP

Let me ask you a question: Don't you think it's the same novels that informed girls about "Tall, Dark and Handsome" being the criteria for 99% of girls in the first place? To me, that's dumb and dumberer grin grin

Why'd ANYONE in his/her right frame of mind pick a novel,read it. . .and try to apply it to his/her daily life??

Beats me!
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by Kemjisuper(m): 2:11pm On Nov 25, 2009
I agree with OP.  wink

Just like when I and my girlfriend started dating, I remember she used to say she wants a guy who can make her laugh grin, and also make her cry cry. Well, mostly I do make her laugh. But the period I made her cry, it nearly cost us the relationship. I'm sure at that point she didn't recall her earlier statement which was probably a line from one of the many romance novels she's freaked about. I kept reminding her that that was the cry period she always talked about and she said she didn't mean it like that tongue

Na wah O!  grin
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by iorhenter(m): 2:25pm On Nov 25, 2009
Believe it or not, Girls who read Love novels create a Mental picture for themselves of relationships that are not real. They imagine themselves in what I call 'THE IDEAL WORLD'. They create a mental picture of their Dream Men from the Imaginary Descriptions of: Tall Handsome Men with Broad Hairy Chest, well Built and all that they read from those Novels. Simply put, they live in a FAIRY TALE WORLD which creates a 'Relationship Wound' on their heart that is only healed by time (age).
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by Nobody: 2:29pm On Nov 25, 2009
I know one, always love sick, but my advice is never allow an immature gurl to go thru all this shitty novels, they are likely to believe it happens in reality,
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by TheSeeker(m): 2:32pm On Nov 25, 2009
No, Nollywood and Hollywood movies always make them.
Re: Do Love Novels Make Girls Dumber In Love? by debomb: 2:54pm On Nov 25, 2009
