Hopeless Romantic Meaning Novels & Stories

“If you’re unhappy, it’s because you refuse to believe that you deserve to be happy! I think you are the problem! Not the guys you dated! You!” I had never seen Marie mad before. She was always positive, always saw the good in people. She was the type who would go home with guys and actually believed they would call her when they promised they would, and they almost always never did. But she didn’t lose hope. When she failed, she would just try again. Marie was not really a slut, just a hopeless romantic. “I’m sorry,” I said. “I was only messing with you. I am open to possibilities. In fact, I tripped on the way here and a really beautiful guy caught me in his arms.”

A kiss! I didn’t have any expectations for an “us”. I had wants but no expectations. I may be a hopeless romantic happy to get lost between the pages of a hot and steamy novel or a sigh-with-sweetness one, but I am not naïve enough to believe that those kinds of things happen all the time. Some people will get that kind of love that makes guys wonder and girls swoon, but not everyone.

There were two famous deadweights in Kingsgate's high society. One was me, Millie Tanner, the pampered little princess whose only talents were shopping and throwing parties. The other was my childhood friend, Iver Langford, the fragile young heir born with autism and congenital heart failure. However, my older brother was the most feared name in the underworld, and my second brother was the richest man in the country. Iver's older sister was the undefeated queen of the courtroom, and his second sister was a surgeon whose hands could bring back the dead. One day, the four of them were chatting over a game of poker. "Raising one hopeless case takes the same effort as two. Might as well pair

If he had told me two hours and five minutes ago, before the sun had set, maybe things would be different. We wouldn't have had to confess our love out of necessity. No one mentions how love pursues torment more than it does comfort. Hopeless romantics are irrational masochists, for who would willingly want to experience a piercing pain they know will eventually come? I am a hopeless romantic, I laugh. Because of that, I say it back, "I love you too." Maybe if the world was kinder to us. If he wasn't forced into a burning

"A connection that goes beyond just knowing each other's names." Raphael's expression didn't change, but I could see a flicker of curiosity in his eyes. "What kind of connection?" he asked, his voice a little softer. I smiled, feeling a sense of hope. "A connection that only comes from sharing a deep and meaningful experience," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "A connection that can't be broken, no matter what happens." Raphael's eyes searched mine, and for a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer of recognition. But it was quickly replaced by a look of confusion, and I realized that I still had a long way to go.

She was still clinging to the possibility that something good would come out of this… That this forced marriage would have a happy ending, like in silly romances. But now she understands that it will not work. She knows it was just a foolish hope that now has been broken into a thousand pieces… just like everything that was holding her up.

She would have faced it head on. “You know,” Malik begins as his finger finds mine and lock it. “I think—this is purely speculation—our meeting was fated.” I snort loudly. “You must be kidding me. I cannot believe that you are pulling the star-crossed lovers, meant-to-be card?” “I am a hopeless romantic.” “Well, bad news, lover boy but this Juliet is not falling for that stuff.” “Just think about it; you and I frequent the park so we would have eventually met—”

The collective we that is we. Before anyone can answer, Hope appears. In her God form. Looking at us with infinite eyes. "Oh Grandma." She sounds heartbroken. "What did you do?" "We tried to stay together." I sob. We sob. "We tried to avoid the Absolute. We tried to love forever. We failed. We chose wrong. We doomed ourselves differently." "No you didn't." Hope touches our merged form. "You chose love. Real love. Sacrificial love. Eternal love. That's never wrong. Never a failure. Never doom."

It was a harsh reminder of my own longing for love and the disappointment that often followed. My past experiences had left me yearning for affection, turning me into a hopeless romantic, longing for something that seemed elusive. But hey, who knows what the future holds? Maybe one day, my delusional puppy-like optimism will lead me to a love that surpasses my wildest dreams. Until then, I'll keep hoping and maybe even enjoy the journey along the way.
