After going through a breakup recently with someone who was my best friend I really connected with this movie. I'm not really like either character but I could really relate to the pain each experienced in losing not only your partner but your best friend. This movie isnt perfect but it's the first I've seen that really speaks to what it means to lose that relationship and it affected me in a way a movie hasn't in awhile.
shareHope youre doing ok then! Found this movie upsetting!
shareI was lucky enough to mary my best friend and the live of my life. Unfortunately her marriage to me didn't live up to all the expectations she had and instead of talking to me and trying to work through it she made some bad choices that she couldn't forgive herself for. She hid it very well and after having a 3 month affair that I was completely naive to she just left. I have only seen my wife and best friend twice since then and one of those times was when she signed the papers to not have to be present during the divorce proceedings. Not only did I lose the love of my life and my best friend but also her family that I loved very dearly. It has been 4 years now and I'm still completely heartbroken and think about her every day. I think it is important for people to realize how much work it is to have a successful marriage and that everything isn't going to live up to expectations but if you work through it together things can work.
