You know, I'm starting to think that the price of fame and fortune is true love.

Yeah.

How often do you parasocially fall in love with a celebrity couple just to watch them

break up a year later? Honestly, a year later is really... celebrity couple,

honestly, a year later is really generous,

more like a month later, or three weeks later.

Or, hell, one week later.

Celebrity couples have the lifespan of, I don't know, maybe a mosquito.

Maybe that's a little too short, maybe a rodent.

Most people would think that finding true love would be easy for celebrities because in theory they can date whoever they want.

Celebrities have an insane level of access and most people have a celebrity crush, right?

Celebrities, in theory, can date their celebrity crush.

They can meet whoever they want, socialize with whoever they want,

and in turn kind of date whoever they want, socialize with whoever they want, and in turn kind of date whoever they want.

You know, what prevents somebody who's not in the public eye from dating a celebrity?

Well, the fact that they're never hanging out in a room together.

But also, celebrities tend to attract special treatment and ungodly amounts of respect,

probably more respect than they deserve.

This is coming from somebody who's a public figure, but I think

celebrities sometimes receive a little bit too much respect, like to a point where they can

just do whatever the fuck they want and get away with it sometimes.

People put them on a pedestal.
