Glad there is a movie that discusses this

It was the storyline that interest me most about this film. I've always wondered if men and women can remain platonic through a situation like this. I know for sure that there are friends who have had the conversation, "If I don't find somebody by this age, will you be the father of my baby..." And what about the women who fear passing their time to have children. This is a film written to answer and contemplate those topics. Thanks to Jennifer for making a film that is true to current day situations. I really enjoy the storyline, the cast, the dialogue, and the romance. The performances were great- funny, witty, and realistic. This is film you can really appreciate.

I believe that they can remain platonic in such a situation. I've seen this situation happen before actually... especially amongst friends who reached the age of wanting children. It's actually very beautiful to see their example of a "family." They have their issues too like all families uniquely do.
This film was a beautiful story about the love and romance that can always existed or can blossom from these situations. It's cleverly written and charming. I too am glad that stories like this are out there to discuss and make people think about other options. Overall it celebrates love and friendship.
