The 31-year-old 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star, who filed from divorce from husband Kris Humphries just 72 days after their August wedding, discusses the split in a joint interview with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney in Glamour magazine.
"I think I'll always be a hopeless romantic," says Kim. "It means that I believe in love and the dream of having a perfect relationship, but my idea of it has changed. I think I need to not live in a fairy tale like that. I think I maybe need to just snap out of it and be a little more realistic."
However Khloe, 27, says she admires Kim's idealistic view of relationships saying, "I love Kim's belief in love and the fact that she feels so strongly about it. She has that dream every girl has."
When Kim replies that she doesn't have the same dream anymore, Khloe adds, "…I'm your sister and I know why you don't have it right now. But I know you will get it again."
Kim, Khloe and Kourtney, 32, who announced that she and her partner Scott Disick are expecting their second child together earlier this week, pose together in a sexy shoot for the January 2012 issue of the magazine.
Kim later admits that she has always wanted to mirror the relationship that her mother Kris Jenner, 56, had with her father Robert Kardashian, who died in 2003 from esophageal cancer.
The couple divorced in 1990 and Jenner went on to marry former Olympic athlete Bruce Jenner in 1991.
"I always wanted what Mom and Dad had," she adds. "And at first I was like, I want six kids. Then I went down to four, then I was down to three…and now I’m like, maybe I won’t have any. Maybe I’ll just be a good aunt."
"At this moment in my life, I feel like maybe I'm not supposed to have kids and all that."
Kim has kept a low profile since announcing her decision to file for divorce, however earlier this week it emerged that NBA basketball star Kris filed a petition in Los Angeles to annul the couple's on the grounds of fraud.
According to California law, a nullity is granted if the court finds that no valid marriage took place.
Kim filed for divorce on October 31, citing irreconcilable differences.
"Maybe my fairy tale has a different ending than I dreamed it would," she adds. "But that’s OK."
