Why couldn't our lives be like the ones in those movies?

We watch them millions and millions of times, over and over again, and every time, no matter what, our imaginations take over, and we hope and dream; we hope that one day things will work out just like it did in the movie, we dream that some day a guy would care just enough about you to do anything for you, we hope that someone you love can be so perfect as to love you back. If life was like the movies we watch, every story would have a happy ending; every girl would end up with the right guy, the best friends would be best friends forever, and everyone’s dreams will eventually come true. But instead, life has it’s own reality; girls don’t always end up with their Mr. Right, the term ‘best friends’ doesn’t always end with forever, and you have to work to achieve your dreams, and even then, they might not come true. Movies may be based on life, but life will never be based on movies, because not every ‘once upon a time’ has a ‘happily ever after’.
