I Date Only Psychos

hi I'm Kiara and I'm a hopeless romantic but before I continue please like And subscribe I completely blame mom for my problem she's been a soap opera actor since her teens and I think playing the heroine and all those love stories made her believe they were half real even though she was often disappointed in reality but a hopeless romantic doesn't give up easily despite some bad experiences you continue to believe that one day true love really will conquer all so I grew up watching classic romantic movies and Disney fairy tales and I believed in soul mates and love at first sight and happily ever after that's what the movies told us it had to happen as long as we believed well mom was still looking and I was on this journey with her and when things went bad I was waiting with ice cream and her favorite rom-com When Harry Met Sally when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody you want the rest of your life to serve as soon as possible oh my heart this gets me every time God where are these men hiding as mom threw her Bowl away angrily my BFF Lauren walked in uh did I come a bad time oh no we're just watching rom-coms and crying the usual come on join us I was mostly a normal teenager even a successful one I'd inherited mom's good looks had plenty of friends and I got good grades my only problem was that I was always looking for love and I fell for guys way too easily like there was Anthony in freshman year who was the one until he stopped calling and pretended he didn't know me at school or Leo who forgot to tell me that he was moving to California till he had already moved and most recently Mark who suddenly told me he was becoming a priest and couldn't date girls anymore I don't get it these guys seem to like me and it's going great and then I don't know what happens they go out with you because you're pretty and cool and then you lose your mind and drive them away what am I doing wrong oh I don't know how about when you told Anthony on the second date that you were in love with him or Leo man to his eyes and said you could see his soul or Mark you sang a song for him at his sister's wedding you weren't even invited I just wear my heart on my sleeve you come on too strong and you always picked the wrong guys they look like your dumb idea French charming and they're exciting but they're not right for you okay okay but look at this guy I bumped into at the coffee shop today he asked me out Lauren immediately set a calendar alert for six weeks what's that for when you guys break up this time it's different I'd love to be wrong about this but she was never wrong six weeks like clockwork the end and I would scream into my pillow and swear off stupid boys forever till the next one of course Lauren always supported me but after watching my Summer Romance Crash and Burn before senior year she'd had enough I can't watch you go through this again listen why don't you let me choose someone for you I know you inside out and I'll pick someone right I'll try anything at this point okay but there are three rules first you have to go out with my pick and you have to get to know him before you decide you're in love don't rush into it agreed and you can't reject him until you've had at least three dates done we wrote it into a contract and signed it Lauren was taking her research very seriously and I couldn't wait but that Friday I came home from school to find moving trucks next door I casually looked out my window and that's when I saw him he was carrying boxes and it was a hot day so he took his shirt off and I nearly fell out the boy was a freaking work of art and his smile brighter than the sun I wished I was the box he was carrying inside his house maybe on our wedding day snap out of it idiot I really tried but I just couldn't stop thinking about him so two days later I went over to introduce myself I rang the doorbell but suddenly I lost my nerve it turned around to run and I tripped my landed face flat in mud someone helped me up and I turned to the son of Zeus himself hey are you okay that must have been a bad fall oh this no no you've got it all wrong see we don't have mud at our place right now so I just came over to do a mud facial it's really good for your skin you should try it not that you need it no sorry I've seen you around and you don't need it either you're really pretty and all I'm Brett by the way he held out his hand and when we touched fireworks I don't remember much from that moment except that he said he was going to start at my school on Monday it practically floated back home I couldn't wait to tell Lauren except the next day at school she told me she'd finally picked someone for me Lauren was explaining her decisions by the locker but my eyes were busy scanning the hallways for Brett are you hearing any of this of course yeah sure thank you but just then Brett walked up to me smiling hey I was hoping to run into you think you can show me around later I would love to as he walked away Lauren turned towards me angrily no what do you mean no you have to go with the guy I picked he signed a contract remember I know it's just that I can't hear you okay fine Lauren had picked out this guy Steven and she forced me to talk to him we've been going to school together for years he was perfectly nice and even cute in a skinny geek kind of way but I didn't feel that spark still I agreed to go out with Steven on Friday night because of that stupid contract but I couldn't get bread off my mind every day that week we met after school in his kitchen did our homework together and just got to know each other I found myself falling for him hard on Thursday I learned he was falling too so go out with me tomorrow night I can't it's just this stupid thing I agreed to do for my friend she picked someone for me and I committed to this date this Friday what about Saturday then Saturday sounds perfect the next night was my date with Steven and it was interesting I always thought he was shy but once he got talking it was hard to stop him he was smart and made super lame jokes that he cracked up over himself which made me laugh but I decided to come clean look this was great but I kind of have my heart set on someone else right now I'm sorry oh don't be that's a relief actually I'm coming out of a relationship and I'm not ready for anything serious so who's the guy it's my new neighbor it was like love at first sight like he's my soul mate you know no I don't actually I think that whole idea is stupid what why because it's stupid like what we're supposed to believe that Cinderella and her prince found true love after dancing for two and a half minutes there are so many other examples Romeo and Juliet those morons didn't live long enough to discover there were probably better people out there for them how can you not believe in love you have to know someone with all their flaws and then decide if you still like them enough to want to be with them I believe in love just not your dumb fairy tale version of it how old are you ten gosh you're so rude I flung a glass of water in his face before I stormed out who is this jerk to judge me I had to break the contract no way was it going on two more dates with this guy Lauren wanted to know all about my day but I decided to tell her the details later I had my date with Brett the next night and that was amazing we grabbed a quick bite from this burger joint and then went to a party with other seniors I couldn't believe how quickly he had made friends with everyone people just gravitated towards him and I loved that we danced all night and standing next to him I felt important we kissed for the first time on my porch I walked inside feeling excited and dizzy and then I found Lauren sitting on my bed yeah she knew I'm so sorry I was gonna tell you it's just this time it's really real Lauren pulled out her phone and started flicking through it he's incredible he's confident and fun and we went to this party Lauren can you please look at me what are you doing six weeks just setting my alert come on don't be that way why did you go out with Steven in the first place why did you ask me to do any of this you put so much more faith in random guys than you do in people who actually love you you Stephen turned out to be a jerk okay he and I have nothing in common but with Brett it's something I've never felt before I have to give this a chance okay six weeks and you know what just turn that alert off you jinx my relationships oh it's my fault now I'm not turning it off yes you are give me that we both ended up wrestling like crazy over the phone but as I pulled at it it suddenly went flying and smashed into the wall I tried to apologize but Lauren just stormed off I'd never really had a falling out with her and it didn't feel good but if she couldn't support me being with Brett then I wasn't talking to her Brett and I were inseparable and every weekend we went to some new exciting plays or party I never felt so happy maybe I was finally done with all the dates and all the boys but after a perfect month things slowly started changing bread seemed a bit distant he didn't want to go out on dates or party so often now when I asked him about it he said he missed hanging out with his friends and wanted to spend more time with them but I had this nagging feeling and I'm not proud of this but I followed him from his house to the other end of town watched him walk into a house party then watched him kiss another girl I stormed up to him and grabbed him by his shirt what do you think you're doing Kiara you followed me you're cheating on me look can we please not do this here OMG is this your crazy ex you were just telling me about the one who has a whole journal for your future wedding girl I saw the pictures and you're pathetic my what you you went through my things into pictures I just found it under your pillow one day what were you thinking planning our wedding you even had pictures of what our kids would look like who does that what I do in private is none of your business and I never said anything to you but it was about me and it's just creepy okay and I guess it made me realize that you're way more into me than I am into you and you weren't even man enough to break up with me you just started seeing someone else you know who does that a stupid jerk I pushed him so hard that he fell on his new girlfriend and I ran out of the party in angry tears as I waited for an Uber outside someone gently took my hand it was Steven oh perfect you were here to see everything go ahead gloat laugh at me I don't want to do that Kiara he's a jerk this is not your fault no but it is because I'm so in love with the idea of being in love did I ignore the signs I've seen him flirting with other girls and I know he's full of himself but I just felt so lucky that he chose me that is pathetic isn't it what can I do to make you feel better can I take you home could you take me to Lawrence I found Lauren in her room and I just burst into tears she immediately put her arms around me like she'd done every time in the past you have to see how valuable you really are you give too much of yourself to people who don't deserve it what I don't deserve is a friend like you but you're stuck with me anyway Lauren stuck with me in the weeks that followed and she wouldn't let Brett come near me in school when he tried to apologize the bread was persistent finally I agreed to meet him on my porch and for the first time he didn't seem so confident I made a terrible mistake Kiara I just got freaked out over nothing and not being with you made me realize how I really feel about you please give me another chance it would have been so easy to just fall into his arms no I'm too valuable to give you any more of my time it's over we're over a couple of weeks later I was sitting on the bleachers when Steven joined me I need to apologize for our date I had no right to judge you yeah you didn't but you weren't wrong and for the record I was enjoying our date till I got mad at you I was enjoying our day too till you told me you liked someone else I lied about my breakup just so I sounded like I wasn't interested either but actually I've kind of had a crush on you for years I was really excited when Lauren set us up oh I had no idea yeah Lauren thought we'd be perfect together I was actually supposed to go on three dates with you three dates huh so you owe me two more I guess I do Lauren was just coming up as he walked away what was that about I am completing the contract she smiled and pulled out her phone six weeks not this time not anymore [Music] thank you
