Romantic comedies produce unreal expectations
Psychologists from the University of Edinburgh claim that constant watching of romantic comedies can spoil your love and sexual life, because you get used to unreal expectations about relationships. The experts explained that individuals who form their love relationships on the basis of movie scenes, often forget to communicate with their partners and give in to hopeless dreaming. They imagine a perfect relationship they want to have with their partners but because reality is usually different from movies, they are often disappointed.
Movies are full of stereotypes
The experts studied 40 movies, made from 1995 to 2000, and they came across various stereotypical love motives which have no connection to reality. The research showed that individuals who watch romantic comedies often believe in destiny and a fatal meeting of the eternal love. Experts emphasize that the problem exists because such movies give impression that people who are meant to be with each other completely trust each other from the moment they meet. But in reality, it takes a few years of a solid relationship to completely trust somebody.
Everything has to be perfect between the sheets
Even though most of the people theoretically understand that the idea of a perfect marriage and sexual life is not realistic, the media and romantic comedies influence us in such a way, that we do not take it for granted anymore. As a consequence, some people think that sexual life has to be perfect and the partner which was created 'only for us' has to know right away what arouses us in bed, even if we don't tell them.
Therefore, romantic comedies lead us into the world of unreal expectations, fatal meetings and eternal happy endings, which turn into something completely else in reality.
