Sample:
They say love is blind.
I disagree. It’s more shortsighted like.
Take them romance novels. Or romcom flicks. Whatta they focus on? The courtship phase.
Dead fierce, sure. But it’s only a wee part of a relationship. In terms o’ time spent, less than one percent.
Bit like comin’ home from a trip around the world an’ sayin’ the highlight was the drive to the airport.
Diabolical.
