Then again I got similar looks for reading fantasy and sci-fi and poetry and westerns.

My sister and I have both been married 35 and 34 years to our soul mates. Although, life has thrown in many ups and downs along the way. My 4 children (two are married, two are in serious long term relationships) all have found their soul mates. We have all been very fortunate to be living healthy and happy lives.

I think that for a fortunate few there is a HEA. For the rest of us - good luck!! I’ve had a few frogs in my time. I think that for a fortunate few there is a HEA. For the rest of us – good luck!!

I was focused on school and getting a job I could enjoy. In the back of my mind I always figured I would have a husband and family, but I didn't give it much thought.My prince found me and I really didn't deserve him, still don't. We are still working on our HEA. I think people forget it is work to make it happen. You can't just sit back and expect all the good stuff to happen. Life isn't that way. Bad stuff happens, but it is the relationship that counts. We have spent 40 years working on our HEA and hope to have another 40 to perfect it. As for men reading romance books, why not. I check out books on CD from the library and we would both listen to them. Some are romances and he listens to them too. The first one that actually had a sex scene in it took him by surprise. I was told to warn him from then on so he didn't run off the road : ) I have also read books to him when we are traveling. I read him the first 4 of Janet Chapman's HIGHLANDER books on a trip to Maine. The books take place in the general area where we were staying. I will admit I chickened out in reading some parts, but told him I'd bookmark them and he could read them on his own. Don't know if he ever did. I didn't start reading romance until I was about 50, so I am still exploring authors and sub-genres. I never really thought about HEA or trying to find my prince when I was young.

I've read some romance books the show a happily married couple working together as a team on the challenges life throws at them. They love and understand each other, accept their spouses quirks, and together face life together holding each other up. I've seen this in real life but not often. I wish in my heart of heart it was more often but it is what it is. Please enter me for Larissa Ione's book, it's on my "New Release Must Get" List :-) I think a HEA is a work in progress.

We shouldn't give up hope. I think there’s an HEA in book and in real life. We shouldn’t give up hope.

I married my very flawed prince 39 years ago, and although I don't think there is any such thing as HEA except in books and movies, we have been very happy and are still very much in love. Besides that, none of us are perfect. We all have our flaws. Madison, please don’t give up on love.

I don't think everyone can find that perfect HEA or it may take a while but it's always good to keep trying. I think people should still be hopeful because without hope what left is there?
