When I’m attracted to a woman and have a connection with her, my instinct is to pursue romance. Does she like me? Should I kiss her? Will this work out? Where will it go from here? These questions get in the way of me seeing the person in front of me.
In the movie, he completely ignores the fact that a married woman with a child is in front of him. His selfish desires put their friendship in jeopardy and inflict pain on her and her family. He also misses the fact that they’re on different pages: she wants to start a new, exciting life and he wants to have a quiet, simple life. In other words, they are entirely incompatible as lovers.
Sometimes I find myself rushing to find a partner, but I realize that there is no rush. Seeing people as they are is what matters most. From this, the best relationship will follow, whether that’s a friendship or partnership. I don’t want my desires to get in the way of what the best one is.
I’d never heard of this movie but enjoyed the clip very much. Thanks for introducing me to it!
