Life Is Not Like The Movies

This weekend, Tom and I watched a romantic comedy. I won’t tell you which one because I am about to ruin the end of it, but if you’ve seen it, you’ll know.
So, the credits are rolling, and I am in tears (as usual), and I turn to Tom and say “If I were upset and I had gone to the lighthouse, would you come find me on the beach?” to which he replied “Yes… I would have 4 kids in tow, and I would be totally pissed off, but I would come find you. Then, I would leave the kids with you and go find the nearest bar.”
I laughed because in my head I was thinking I would freeze to death on that beach before Tom noticed I wasn’t at home.
We agreed our meeting on the beach would not have been so romantic, and there may have been some harsh words exchanged.
Life is just not like the movies.

You sure said it right. It’s actually very annoying to see these movies portraying a totally false reality… Then people get married and have kids and start to see what life and responsibility really looks like. Loved your comment on it.
All the best,

Too funny.
You wouldn’t freeze because you wouldn’t go to the light house, you would go shopping.
It’s warm in the malls.
