It may sound cute, but a fixation on romance is just as dangerous as any other addiction.
Do you believe love is the only antidote to everything that is wrong with your life? How long do you wait to tell a person that you love him and imagine a future with him?

If these questions make you worried or defensive, chances are you might be suffering from a real problem.
