Why Date Him?

You stated a lot of excellent points and yes I agree with you, one thing I hate about movies and often books is that they make these points you made hard to agree with, you know? I mean I as a woman find it very romantic for a guy who gives flowers to people that he sees unhappy through long night walks and looking through windows. And one sad person captured his heart and he gives her flowers then he gets the oppertunity to meet her twice and get further acquainted with her which is probably something he didn't expect.

On a sad level I call reality, yes it isn't consider safe for a gal to easily get involve with someone whom she barely knows let alone him knowing her. Yes a guy spying on people isn't so safe and I admit I find it scary and strange not to mention sometimes consider inappropriate.

Yes he was rushing it and he was pushing it too, in my opinion I would say there are calls for some boundries.

On a romantic level, my mother always says it is a fantasy and it makes people happy (she reads the Twilight series, I hate that *beep* I agreed with her on that sentiment.

I love this movie because it is a simple romantic movie about two lonely people who find love and happiness in themselves and they over come their fears together.

AGH! I don't know if I am making much senses here and I know I am not but personally as someone who longs for what Lisa has with Lewis I got to say 'Life is too short to be afraid, to be alone and to say that 'I am okay being on my own', honestly my one birthday wish has always been to never grow old alone. And one thing I know is that life isn't worth living if you don't at least try to live in it.

A few years late but he is just more open than she is. She's really closed off and doesn't open up to him. Men are always complaining they're not mind readers. They're not. She may seem uncomfortable but if she won't talk to him about it then how the "hale" is he supposed to know?

Had to laugh. Your viewpoints are not offensive or out of line. It's funny to see both sides of Lewis; the good looking shy wealthy widower who instantly falls in love with the beautiful sad woman he spots in the lighted window, or the midnight stalker who stays up late thinking about what people are doing behind closed doors LOL. Lisa and Danny's relationship did not bother me at all, both workaholics and it worked for them - so. I did think the build-up to Lisa realizing that she had fallen in love with Lewis was excellent; not concentrating on work, taking long walks, arriving home finding him concerned about her. And when they say "I Love You", the moment in time stands still excellently portrayed. It makes a nice story, I'm attracted to Slater and watch it for the romantic aspects when I want escape into my fantasy world. But of course if it were real life, I would call the police.

In fantasy land , I think this would be ideal and perfect. In real life, it would be too overbearing and creepy.
