I will use The Real World Las Vegas as my example for how love can be portrayed in reality TV shows. Real World is on Wednesday nights, and I happen to love it. However, the way love is represented is extremely skewed.
The people on Real World came to Las Vegas to be single. When Nany gets there, she is the only girl with a boyfriend. She plans on staying with him, because she has been with him for six years. However, once she gets there she immediately begins to flirt with Adam, a single trouble-maker and completely unrealistic match for her. She loves the fact that he is a player to every girl he meets, and ends up cheating on her boyfriend with him. She ends her relationship of six years to hook up with someone who ends up making her cry and making her miserable.
Why would she do something like that? It seems like people give up dedication for desire every time on these television shows. Do they not think long-term? Do they not think twice about breaking hearts? Or do they just think that breaking off their relationship is what is best for them?
