The notebook
July 22, 2005 | 12:00am
You know you love her. When you met her, it was the equivalent of the heavens parting and the voice of Morpheus loud in your ear "Shes The One." It is fate and destiny and the wish you made upon a star. She had you at hello, you look at her and you sigh. It has never been like this before, this over-the-fence, reach-for-the-stars, fireworks kind of love. You know that no matter what she says, she belongs to you.
But she doesnt know that and she might not care yet. Or maybe youre together, and you keep having to drag your foot out of your mouth. Its not what you say its how you say it. If youre just a boy, standing in front of a girl, asking her to love you, then you better know how.
This list is meant to help you on your way to the greatest adventure of all, towards a love that will go down the annals of history as a love that is unquenchable and incomparable, a love that will survive no matter if storm clouds may gather and stars may collide, leading right up to a house in the suburbs, 2.5 children and happily every after.
In short, this is a crash course on how to get your girl and keep her, too.
1. Love is like oxygen. Love is a many splendored thing, love lifts us up where we belong, all we need is love! Moulin Rouge
Translation: Im broke, and cant pay for dinner.
2. When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible When Harry Met Sally
Translation: Say yes, for crying out loud.
3. When you love someone, you say it. You say it right then, out loud, or the moment just passes you by. My Best Friends Wedding
Translation: All right, where do I stand?
4. It doesnt matter if the guy is perfect or the girl is perfect, as longas they are perfect for each other Good Will Hunting
Translation: I know the other guy is richer, cuter, and has a better car, but just give me one shot.
5. Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get. Forrest Gump
Translation: Sorry, you got me, you cant get rid of me.
6. Any guy can sweep any girl off her feet, he just needs the right broom. Hitch
Translation: Hes no better than I am, he just has a better car.
7. You cant handle the truth. A Few Good Men
Translation: Lets forget I screwed up.
8. I love you, very simple, very truly I had to say it, because Ive never felt this way before And if bringing this to light means we cant hang out anymore, then that hurts me. But God, I just, I couldnt allow another day to go by without just getting it out there, regardless of the outcome.
Translation: Dont give me that "I think were better off as friends" line.
9. You complete me. Jerry Maguire
Translation: If you break up with me, I will jump off the Rizal Monument.
10. This kind of certainty comes but once in a lifetime. Bridges of Madison County
Translation: Im sure.
11. Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of your time. There are too many mediocre things in life to deal with, and love shouldnt be one of them. Dream for an Insomniac
Translation: Break up with your boyfriend and take me.
12. Frankly my dear, I dont give a damn. Gone with the Wind
Translation: I dont care how many times you tell me to buzz off, Im not leaving.
13. As you wish. The Princess Bride
Translation: Okay, Ill shut up now.
14. You have procured my valuable services, Your Majesty. Tell me, where can I find this ogre? Shrek
Translation: Ill do whatever you want, just stop whining.
15. Have you ever let a romantic moment make you do something that you knew was stupid? As Good As It Gets
Translation: Im going to kiss you.
