There's something I always think about when I see shows that are trying to help two people find true love. Oh let's see here...a Shot at Love, the Bachelor, I Love New York, Flava of Love, etc. the list goes on and on. Something I can never understand is why in the heck people are trying to find their soulmate on TV. I'm sorry that I talk about reality TV all the time, but come on, you know it's interesting.
Alright, so let's be honest. I love watching a hunky bachelor go on these romantic dates with all of these women, and treating them all with the utmost respect and care on this major adventure trying to find a girl he wants to spend the rest of his life with. That's adorable and all, but not realistic whatsoever. Come on. Like everyone finds their soulmate in freaking London or on these amazing trips with the somehow "perfect" romantic atmosphere. As for the trashy Shot at Love, I Love NY, etc. etc. oh geez. They are oh-so-entertaining, but oh-so-staged as well.
Who would have thought to put a bi-sexual bachelorette on TV with a bunch of women and a bunch of guys and let America sit back and see what happens. Yes these shows are entertaining and I am not bashing them because they aren't the most tasteful, but because they aren't reality TV. They are simply not realistic at all. The houses are cool and the date locations aren't that bad either, but don't make up stupid challenges to see who wants to "fight for my love the most". How dumb. I wouldn't really like having a camera follow me around for a few months/years or however long it takes to get my whole love story on film. Let alone would I want America watching me make some decision breaking 1209381203 people's hearts along the way.
Regardless of how entertaining these reality tv shows where people try to find their true love for life, I'm not buying into it. Do you realize that most/all people never stay together? "Things didn't work out with Bobby, so I'm back again, watch me now break 31 more peoples' hearts". Seriously? I just don't understand how people think they can find someone they are truly happy with and truly in love with when they have a camera following them around 24/7, the person is kissing like 10 other people at the same time as you, and no matter what someone always gets hurt. Wow, what a thing love is.
