Blog post #3 - Comparison


Rebecca Bloomfield reminds me of my cousin, Lily.  They are both twenty-five years old and single.Rebecca is looking for love with Luke Brandon. Rebecca has her eyes set on Luke; however, her roommate, Suze, has other ideas. Suze’s cousin, Tarquin, has a massive crush on Rebecca and he invites Rebecca on a date. She agrees to go out with him because she had read in the newspaper that he was one of the top ten of the richest men in the United Kingdom. In her dreamy ways, Rebecca thought if she went on a date, she would fall in love with him even though she had met him before and didn’t fall for him. This is how Becky and Lily remind me of each other. Lily was also in a similar situation. About two years ago, she was twenty-three and getting restless because in her mind, she wanted to be married by then and have two children. Seeing that hadn’t happened, she signed up for a dating website. Soon after, a man messaged her and asked her out based on her profile.  Lily agreed because he appeared to be family-oriented which appealed to her. On their first date, he showed up and it appeared to Lily that he hadn’t showered and was wearing stained clothes; however, Lily thought she would still give him a chance.  Sadly, within the first three months, she had to end it. All Lily wanted was to fall in love and get married right away and as she would say, “get her life rolling.”
