kendra-
no worries. i really do appreciate your point of view, and I'm glad you are thinking realistically. because that is one of my problems with my stories- they always lack a few things that just wont let them be realistic.
so yeah, maybe those who love you wont love you so much when you're being mean. maybe they won't have patience or doing anything like Alex does. but in my stories, i have the tendency to try and make the guys perfect as possible, because thats what i want and thats just how i am. i like to think that somewhere there's been someone as patient and caring as my character. not the real one, i'm sure, but yeah- i've actually had a really good friend who always responds rationally to all my stupid moods. so sorry its not realistic enough, that would be my fault and my daydreams. but thats also why people read stories, to lose themselves from their everyday reality
but yeah, its definitely a great point, so thank you for pointing that out to me. it's most agreeably a really good writing tip. i guess i just got in the habit of writing stories, but i always focus on the girls, what their problem is, and everything, making a problem and finding a guy to help fix it.
so yeah, thanks, and i am currently working to make alex seem a bit more realistic- but the problem is, everyone can know who Alex is, going on youtube.com and everything. but i don't swear, i don't do anything immoral- i have high standards. so it sort of restricts what i can really show of someone who really exists. does that make sense?
