love. is to have hope

When this movie came out, I was in a complicated relationship that I couldn't get out of. The person I thought I loved had known me for a few years and was comforted in the middle of the night, saying what I thought would be forever, and recorded Jiang Meiqi's "Happy Birthday" for me on my birthday. However, never said love. Then turn around and become someone else beside someone else.
At that time I thought the sky was falling. Unbelievable deception, unforgivable betrayal, unforgivable time. I talked to many people, confirming my experience over and over again like Mrs. Xianglin. Luckily there is this movie.
He's Just Not That Into You.
Thankfully there is this sentence. Like a loud whip, hitting my self-righteous, sticky feelings. A man, if he loves you, he will remember you even if there is a flood or heavy snow, even if he turns off the phone in the middle of the night and listens to you, even if there are 500 Marys, he will be able to find the right one. And I always thought it was the details of love, those warm eyes and voices, those trivial little things that I always remember, just the walls built up by my own imagination and hallucinations, blocking me from moving forward.
But rules are one thing, life is another. Few people can really sleep and forget the past, and few people can accurately update their feelings for the people around them every moment. People changes. So we need to keep asking ourselves and asking others. Do you love me? How much love? Divorce for me? marry me? Or call me?
Remember what you can't get, and what can you do if you get it.
Made a lot of friends in one thread. All are girls. Waiting for the person beside him to look back and see him. We talked about the warmth and despair he gave, about the little things that are not worth mentioning called love, and comforted and encouraged each other. The meaning of girlfriends is not to hide the truth of love from each other, but to give each other hope. At the end of the movie, I finally saw hope.
Yes, I still believe in love. still.
As said in the movie, some people are within the rules, some people are exceptions, and most importantly, there is hope.
PS: Xiaoqian, ghosts, little ghosts, and people I know and don’t know, this is written for you. Thank you for what you gave me.

    It's a mess actually...

    He didn't lose your number, he wasn't on a business trip, he wasn't busy, he didn't call you, he didn't ask you to meet, he just didn't want to see you. But even if you hit a wall, even if you are disgraced, even if you have been self-motivated, don't give up hope, that's right.

    Alex: Please.

    Kelli Ann: This is amazing. You can't focus. Right? Jumping every time your phone rings. Checking your e-mail a hundred times a day. Wishing you could write songs.
