Being single or being a couple is a dilemma

In the first half, in order to become a couple, you must change yourself, accept lies, and live in a purpose that everyone envies.
In the second half, I declared that I had become a celibate, and when I met what I wanted, I couldn't help but be afraid of the eyes of others.
In the end, life has changed, and it is a dilemma whether to repeat the first half or choose the second half of life again.
Whether the ending is happy or sad, it is a tragedy. He started asking the hostess every day if he could speak German, and stopped hunting rabbits.
Although the male protagonist rejects this kind of utopian society that can only recognize couples, he himself has accepted this kind of tacit understanding that only exists on the surface. Without this superficial love, there can be no inner love. So he finally got into the tangle of whether to lose the light in exchange for the couple.
From the point of view of truth, goodness and beauty, the male protagonist really falls in love with the female protagonist, and he must gain social recognition by losing the light, and he must try his best to lead the female protagonist to escape this society where two people are not allowed to love freely.
But in terms of the cold and dark style of the whole film, there is more irony, so I don't believe in true love, but at least it was true when they met and saw the heroine at the beginning.
After all, love is blind, some people are willing to fall deeply, and some people want to see clearly.

I always swallow after fellatio and I've got absolutely no problem with anal sex if that's your thing. My ex-husband always used to say I had the most beautiful thighs he'd ever seen, but let's not talk about him.

  • Trainer Waiter - Shooting Range: It's no coincidence that the targets are shaped like single people and not couples.
