More often than not, you encounter days where you just want someone in your life. This can be triggered by watching romantic comedies, reading an article on the internet or seeing your best friend happily settled with someone. Yes, they come, and they’re perfectly natural, but are you sure that’s what you really want?

常常在某些瞬间，你莫名渴望生活中能出现另一半。或许只因刚刚看过几部浪漫喜剧、在网上读到某些文字，抑或因为看到好朋友都喜滋滋牵上了手。他们是如此自然而又完美地出现在一起。可是，你确定这当真就是自己想要的吗？

1. You’re just in love with the concept of love.

你只是喜欢爱情本身的美好。

Cliché but this is most likely the situation if you think a relationship will save your life’s monotony. People always have a romanticized notion of what having a boyfriend or girlfriend would make them feel like. You toy with the idea of having someone constantly with you, the dates and the candlelit dinners, but the exhilaration of having one only lasts in its early stages. If you expect too much from it you might jump into the first potential relationship you find and end up disappointed.

虽说陈词滥调，但也确实如此：如果你以为恋爱能救你摆脱无聊乏味，那必定只是喜欢“恋爱”字面的蕴意。人们对谈男女朋友总是充满过于浪漫的幻想，觉得身边会一直有人陪伴、能享受数不尽的约会和烛光晚餐。其实，这种情调只会短暂出现在恋爱初期。要是你怀着过高期望一头扎进去，最后只能失望收尾。
