Example #1: Adam and Eve
Granted, they were the only two people around at the time. And, yeah, I'm sure Adam was pretty pissed at his woman for that whole getting them kicked out of the Garden of Eden thing, but what else was he going to do? Hit the local tavern and pick up some strange? Impossible. There was no tavern (unless Adam built one with his own two hands, and I don't remember reading that in Genesis). And if there had been a tavern, there wouldn't have been any other ladies in it because there was only the one lady and she happened to be the one that doomed the whole human race. Also, what if the tavern had a gorilla bartender? That would be sweet!
Example #2: Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet's short courtship ended in senseless tragedy, but their story is one that has resonated with young and old alike throughout the ages. Their young, doomed love has been the inspiration for films (West Side Story; Romeo and Juliet: Sealed with a Kiss, which is literally about cartoon seals in love), songs (that stupid song by the The Reflections), and books (Romeo and Juliet: For Kids from the Shakespeare Can Be Fun series). Has your love ever inspired anything? Probably not.

The Greatest Story Ever Told! Some people use this hackneyed phrase to describe the birth of Jesus Christ. To me, it describes the almost sickeningly adorable love story of fictional sweethearts Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly from the popular American version of The Office. Each week their tale of true love and devotion grows sweeter and deeper and more hopelessly adorable. In a perfect world actors John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer would be together in real-life, engaged to be married and working alongside one another at a paper company in Scranton, PA. They're the fake couple every real couple should strive to emulate. I just hope the whole thing doesn't end in suicide or banishment.
