As a girl I was never 'in love' with horses. My best friend was though. She bought horse posters, horse figurines, and horse books. She also would draw horses. She was quite obsessed. My cousin had a thing for unicorns, which are very similar. I still don't really like horses today, although I'm sure my friend does. However, I do feel sorry for the Handsome Cab horses around Chicago because they are not taken care of. Yet, that is the only time I have felt one way or the other about horses.
I think that it goes back to fairy tales though. The prince rides in on the white horse to save the princess..yada,yada. Forget the horse, I just wanted the prince
