I'm IN-LOVE again ..


Great Flick ..
           People who are in-love do crazy things and sometimes we usually don't realize it at the time. I had a wonderful time watching the movie, it made me sigh in some of the scenes for an overwhelming love and some of the line cringed my heart. Julianne Moore  ( the wife ) broke up with Steve Carell ( the husband ) and it saddened them both beyond measure. Maybe it is really true that at some point in every relationship one or the other looses the sparks, the excitement thus turning the relationship into a one boring routine. It scares me actually to truly realize by now that every relationship no matter what form we are in requires hardwork and a committment that we will continue to workt it out no matter what. Sounds a tough job huh! whew!

         When Steve was divorced by Julianne he was really devasted only because he was the one left behind. You know there is really truth to it, it's easier to leave when you're the one leaving someone else behind. But for the one's being left alone it is tremendously hard. I can never blame Steve for jumping out of the car instead of fixing things or trying to talk about what happened to his wife. Sometimes we do really find it hard for ourselves to confront the things that's right before our eyes. His wife just told him she slept with another guy and that she demanded for a divorce. How hard was that? I'm sure real hard. So jumping out of a moving car would be more bearable than hearing what his wife's left to say. He went a great deal of lonesome nights, painful memories of what has been and went from women after women to cover up his wounded heart. While on the contrary Julianne tried her best to mask a wounded heart too. She's lonely and unhappy and misses her husband terribly but what brought about her decision of splitting up instead of trying to work it out seemed to be the only thing that she needs to do.

          I personally don't understand why the heck she wants a break-up in the first place when it breaks her own heart? But who am I to judge what she's done when I may  ( who knows ) find myself in her shoes one day? Who am I to judge how she wants to run her own relationship when who knows she was just trying to make his husband realize that some things needs to be discuss and to be talked about because clearly, although I truly respect Steve and I get it when he chose to jumped out of the car instead of facing her wife but he should have stayed in the car anyway, gets home and ask why she wants a divorce. But he didn't. He didn't bother to ask but what he did instead was packed his things away and leave just like that. Okay, im not judging him either because it's something that I do best , walking away. But you know, it made me realize all the more why relationships ends. It ends not because two people aren't meant to be together but rather two people gave up to fight for each other.

          My heart cringed when Julianne asked her husband Steve ' When Did we stop being US ?'. A question so simple but cuts through my heart and creeped through the fiber of my being. What hurts the most maybe is when you can't give an answer nor remember when did you really stop being a couple, when clearly you don't know what has become of you, of what has become of the both of you. Sigh ..

          Thank God it was a happy ending. How it ended happy? It was happy because they both realized especially Steve that putting on the better clothes doesn't make him a better man. He may look better but he is still unhappy. He may have gone out and made love with different women but nothing beats her wife. Nothing and no one compares to the love of his life not even close. Julianne didn't lose the love she have for Steve and it was and will always be there. She misses him so bad that Steve didn't had a hard time winning her back. Indeed it was a happy ending.

           In the middle of their fight, when Julianne just learned Steve slept with nine different women , She only asked him one thing.. " Who are you ? " and then she left failing to hear what Steve had to answer , and he said . " I Am your Soulmate " . ( cheeeeessssyyyyy , but true ). In the end he fought for her because he believes that when you have found your soulmate, you have to fight for that person. Maybe sometimes we have to go through painful experiences and had to go through a wake up call in a form of a break-up, a trial separation or sudden blow on our face like . ' you know what I slept with another guy ' for us to realize who do we really we want to be with. It makes us realize that no matter how great the mistake was we still hold the person dearly in our hearts. It makes us realize that in the face of what we could lose or risk more by choosing to stay with the person who hurts us the most and fighting for a relationship that only God knows where is heading to we still love to the extent that we forgive and that is just what makes us hold it together. In the end if it works out or not at least we did our part. If and only when it happens, whatever our decisions maybe we just have to sometimes let the heart do the talking and take it from there. It is someitmes better to decide from the heart.

Love like it will never hurt. Crazy Stupid Love. Im inlove again ( like, duh! haha )
