In romantic love, we are casting the star of our movie. The person we choose ends up filling the screen in front of our eyes. If life is a movie, then our loves act as stand-ins, occupying the role of stars in our waking dream. What we often fail to realize, however, is that we, in turn, end up filling the screen in THEIR movie, and thus we must appreciate just how much we are asking of them: nothing less than everything.
