This is why I only let my wife watch the Saw movies. From BBC:
Watching romantic comedies can spoil your love life, a study by a university in Edinburgh has claimed.
Rom-coms have been blamed by relationship experts at Heriot Watt University for promoting unrealistic expectations when it comes to love.
They found fans of films such as Runaway Bride and Notting Hill often fail to communicate with their partner.
Many held the view if someone is meant to be with you, then they should know what you want without you telling them.
Psychologists at the family and personal relationships laboratory at the university studied 40 top box office hits between 1995 and 2005, and identified common themes which they believed were unrealistic.

I love it! Romantic comedies suck.
Although too much sci-fi has given me a completely dystopian view of the future.
Why bother worrying about whether your partner can instinctively fulfill all your needs when we're all going to be enslaved by super-intelligent robots in a few years, regardless?
