Most women are hopeless romantics, it's just that some do a much better job at hiding it than others. I'm sure that everyone has known someone in their lifetime who complains constantly about their significant other and simply wishes to find the perfect guy/girl. But what makes the perfect guy/girl? Why do people think that these type of relationships actually exist? The reason is simply that we have this perfect nuclear family image from the 50's drilled into everyone's conscience fuels; the same kind of cliche that we see in romantic comedies.
             A romantic comedy is a dramatic story about a romance told with a light humorous touch, in which the audience probably knows the outcome before they ever sit down to watch the movie. So how do romantic comedies engage the interest of an audience? Every romantic comedy I have ever seen somehow tries to explain it's version of the perfect couple, something the audience should strive to be. The writers of these films stick a man and a woman together who are completely perfect for each other. The characters have some force separating the two of them; maybe they're from different backgrounds, or they live too far apart, or maybe one of them is engaged when they meet, or maybe they have never even met. But we all know what ends up happening in a romantic comedy! The people who should be together end up together and they all live happily ever after. But I guess no one really watches these movies to realize the end because they are so predictable. People undoubtedly watch these movies to see the relationship explore and grow, to feel the warm tingles when the two people finally end up together. People like to relive the wonderful beginnings of a relationship, rather than the broken down, bitter wrecks they eventually become years later.
