Knock him off his pedestal, as blogger Nicole Forrester puts it. Sure, maybe he’s still charming, funny, and handsome as the devil. But pay attention to who he REALLY is. All of us are just human. Notice his foibles and stop making excuses for them. Was he sharp with an underling? Did he forget to wish you happy birthday? None of this is because he needs you to truly understand him, but because he’s just another human being with flaws and idiosyncrasies. He can be selfish, rude, and forgetful just like everyone else. Work to get out of your fantasy world. Who knows, maybe you will even realize that he doesn’t have to love you back for you to appreciate him as a fellow journeyman on this planet, someone who also has trials and tribulations.
