Psych2Go's mission is to make psychology and mental health more accessible to everyone, and you help us do that, so thank you. Now let's begin. Do your friends call you a hopeless romantic? Do you see things through rose-tinted glasses? Being described as a hopeless romantic means that you view the world in a more idealistic and fairy tale-like way. Compared to those who are more logical and realistic, you tend to have your head in the clouds, believing that love will always find its way into your life. Even if love has brought you all sorts of trouble, whether it's through failed relationships or bad breakups, you still believe that you'll find the right person for you in the end. Here are 10 signs that you are a hopeless romantic. Number one, it doesn't matter how many failed relationships are behind you, you still believe in the right one. Do you always hold faith that your next relationship will be better than the last? Sometimes people can feel hopeless after a failed relationship. They may even give up on trying to find the right partner after some time, but not you. As a hopeless romantic, even if you recognize a bad relationship, you still refuse to give up on hope that the right person will present themselves to you when the time is right. Number two, when your significant other isn't around, you adjust your pillows just to pretend you're laying on their shoulder to be able to fall asleep. Have you ever felt like your bed is a lot emptier without your partner around? The feeling of skin-to-skin contact can feel like the most natural thing in the world where you feel safe, warm, and secure. If you are able to still feel their love and connection to you, even when they may not be next to you, then that's a sign that you are a hopeless romantic. Number three, you're always excited for Valentine's Day. Are you a fan of Valentine's Day? Do you get incredibly excited about the festivities and the romantic atmosphere this day brings about? After all, it's the one day of the year where people like to publicly profess their feelings and love for each other. Even if you are single, you're still able to appreciate and get excited for the romance and love in the air. Number four, you love everything about life, even the difficult times. Have others told you that you have a child-like enthusiasm for life? Unlike the pessimists of the world, you see the beauty in everything around you. Even when life gets tough and you're going through a difficult time, you still try to look at the brighter side of things and believe that it's never as bleak as it may seem. Number five, you've dreamed about going on romantic dates around the world. Have you always dreamt about traveling to Paris or Venice for a romantic date? Perhaps you fantasized about going to some of the most beautiful and romantic places in the world with someone you truly care about, just so you can have that romantic experience with them. As a hopeless romantic, you want to take pictures, eat and drink some of the best food, visit the beautiful landmarks and make the best memories with your partner. Number six, you celebrate the small things in a relationship. Whether it's enjoying a cup of tea with a loved one or getting them their favorite snack, you take time to celebrate and show your love to those you care about. You don't shy away from paying attention to what's important and you aren't embarrassed by sharing special moments, thoughts and feelings with them, however small. Number seven, you may have high standards which may be unrealistic. Do you ever daydream about what your future partner might look like? One of the drawbacks of being a hopeless romantic is that you have almost impossibly high standards for the people you want to love. It's possible that by daydreaming about the person you want to be with, it creates a person that doesn't exist in reality. You may end up pushing away people who could make you really happy because they don't fit the image you have in your head. Number eight, everything makes you cry. Even YouTube videos. Do you cry really easily? Showing emotions is not a weakness, but a strength. Whether it's a cute animal video or a short animated clip that you're watching, you can't help but tear up at the sight before you. This may be because compared to others, hopeless romantics are generally more comfortable at expressing their emotions. Number nine, you love a good chick flick or love ballad. Are you a fan of romance? Well, of course you are. And as a hopeless romantic, sometimes all you need is to curl up and watch a cheesy romantic comedy or drama. You tend to feel things quite intensely, and so these romantic films can trigger and stir up the overwhelming emotions inside of you. And number 10, imperfections are perfect to you. Everybody has imperfections or self-esteem issues from time to time, but hopeless romantics don't care about any of that. You don't see imperfections in others. Instead, you see past the surface and love them for who they are. Since you're able to appreciate and find the beauty in the things they may not like about themselves, you end up making them feel more comfortable and loved. So are you a hopeless romantic?
