Realistic Love Stories: Why I Write About Love That Hurts and Heals

by | Jul 30, 2025 | Romance | 0 comments

I don’t write fairy tales.
I write realistic love stories that hurts — the kind tested by time, distance, and doubt. The kind that leaves scars and still finds a way to grow.
When I wrote A Journey of Love, I drew from real experience.
We broke up. We grew separately. And somehow, we found our way back — not by fate, but by choosing each other again and again.
That’s the kind of love I’m drawn to — not perfect, but powerful. It doesn’t always look pretty, but it’s real. It’s human.

“Romance isn’t about the first kiss — it’s about the fourth argument, the painful past, and the choice to stay.”

• Real Love Is Messy — And Worth It
If you’re looking for realistic love stories with emotional depth, hard-won hope, and characters who feel like people you’ve known — that’s what I try to give you.
My stories don’t gloss over conflict. They dive into it, unapologetically. They explore forgiveness, miscommunication, trust broken and rebuilt.
I write about love that’s tested — because that’s the kind of love that transforms us.
Love that walks through the fire and comes out changed — not the same, but stronger. More grounded. More real.

• Why This Matters
Writing about realistic love stories that hurts and heals is about capturing what it really means to be human.
Love isn’t perfect — but it’s powerful.
It transforms us. It breaks us open and builds us stronger.
I hope my stories remind you that your scars are part of your strength.

• Have a story of love that hurt but still healed you?
Share it in the comments. I’d love to hear it.
Let’s connect — and remind each other that imperfect love is still real love.
