Forgot to add...I get why people prefer the non-functional. Let's face it we don't have to turn on the tv or read a book to see a functional relationship. We are surrounded by them. Well the vast majority of us are. I see them every where. I don't want to watch them on tv. Boring. I want the what-if scenarios...conflict, and what I don't see in reality. I think that to a degree is true of most of us. We don't want the bad romance in reality, but it is fun to fantasy about it. (Which is what Lady Gaga's video - I think - gets across.)
