    Boy likes girl, girl likes boy, they both fall in love. Only if you're Jane Eyre.

    1. So you've been dreaming of true love's kiss

    2. Maybe something like this?

    3. Or this?

    4. Probably this?

    5. Heck, even an awkward dance would be something

    6. But life isn't like period dramas

    7. And so you decide that settling for Bridget Jones's life is acceptable

    8. That's before you realise that Bridget gets the man too and isn't a helpless singleton

    9. So now you can't relate to Bridget, but you can still follow her advice

    10. It's time to move on and watch more films in the hope that it will find you the perfect man

    11. But in the end they either leave, die or live happily ever after

    12. But it will be alright because all you need to do is try to find one man who takes an interest

    13. And one date leads to another

    14. And finally you begin to feel as though your life could be a movie

    15. But then something happens which means the relationship ends

    16. And so you spend the rest of your days sleeping and drinking

    17. Until you're told to snap out of it and your reaction is...

    18. But then real life gets in the way of mourning and you return to work with a hangover

    19. You slowly move out of the dark abyss and return to watching the films which ruin your life

    20. Just because your expectations will never ever slip
