Love still can't escape the trinity

What is love anyway? Who can speak of the Qing Dao Ming? Perhaps after watching this film, you will feel something, whether you are single, in love, or already married, as long as you are willing to think about it, you can always gain something here. If love stories have already flooded, then this film is definitely a rare film with depth in romantic films.
If you study psychology, if you happen to give students the psychology of love, you will have something to gain. It is still recommended, watch the video first and then watch the follow-up comments.


"That" is positioned as a light-hearted comedy, the film tells the story of three good friends who make a single agreement, but each fall into love. Why are three good friends? It is not a lonely hero, it is not Ssangyong, it is not the Four King Kong, and it is not the Five Heroes of Langya Mountain. Have you thought about this after watching the film? And I thought of a person, thinking it’s crooked, it’s really not an ex-girlfriend, but a little old man named Sternberg, get it, I don’t know if the screenwriter is deliberate or unintentional, the film happens to coincide with Sternberg’s The love triangle: passion, intimacy and commitment.
I’m sure you’re not unfamiliar with this theory. Solao’s triangular stability law can be regarded as a master in the psychology of love. Every time you go to the psychology of love, everyone has to use it. Maybe everyone’s understanding will be. There are differences, but this kind of filming is at least more vivid than my presentation of PPT. If a teacher wants to talk about the psychology of love next time, I personally recommend that students can watch this film, which is considered a benefit.

Passion: Mike can be regarded as a well-behaved doctor, at least after marriage, everything seems to be a procedural check, and life is moving forward according to his planned trajectory. Perhaps it is just that, his wife Vera will slowly break away from the trajectory of the two people. This is the three-year itch that we generally know, passion no longer exists. In the movie, Mike uses a fresh stimulation method to rekindle the passion of the two people. This is only sexual stimulation. As the passion of life fades, the original love follows Vera’s sentence "I don’t love you anymore." "To exile Mike completely.
Mike’s story is a typical marital status. Often with the disappearance of passion, the conflict between the two begins to escalate. As Vera said, Mike may be afraid and is not ready to have children, but it’s obvious. That exchange was probably the first time Vera confessed to Mike, but it was already too late, so the communication between the two is extremely important.
I personally like Mike’s story. In the film, both Jason and Daniel have a happy ending. Only Mike seems to have a dismal ending. Only he failed to restore the love and marriage with Vera. At the end of the film, he called the glasses. Sister, and this seems to me that the courage required to give up is far greater than fighting. Both Jason and Daniel can be seen as fighting, and what Mike does is letting go and rebirth. This difficulty level is not at the same level.

Intimacy: Daniel and Chelsea always build bridges for each other. During this long period of time, they have become familiar with each other. It is this intimate intimacy that each other can't experience when getting along with other opposite sexes. Yes, maybe it was when Daniel felt a certain point of tenderness in his heart after pulling the string for Chelsea, he realized that the so-called gangster friend has walked in and lived in his heart. Fortunately, Chelsea is the same. .
Daniel is the love I admire the most. Of course, part of the reason is that I like Chelsea the most. But this kind of feeling that love has come quietly at a certain moment through familiarity with each other should be extremely wonderful. A beautiful encounter may set off a strong passion, but after the passion fades, it will never be as close as the intimacy and happiness in the eyes. I envy this kid too much.

Commitment: Jason’s appearance is a thorough bachelor, never let himself fall into a relationship, and this famous choice time point can be regarded as a summary of his experience, at certain moments, feelings always have to Make a choice, go or stay. Jason has always carried out his beliefs in this way, and his life was really wonderful, until the appearance of Ellie.
The encounter with Ellie is a happy relationship between the two people. It is also a match, passion, and intimacy between the two people, but when the two need to go further, they need more commitment. Just like Ellie said, When you were, you were not by my side.” This kind of thing is probably not just a bridge in the movie, but also after that, Jason began to understand the promise, and began to realize the kind of desire to make from the bottom of his heart. What does the promised love look like.
This is also a lucky bastard. After all, it’s what the film needs. After two bad behaviors, Ellie can be forgiven. I have to say that Jason’s performance in the reading club is really in place, at least in terms of language design. Very good, so good that just listening to two people talk will feel that it is a pity not to be together.

Mike saw the value of passion in marriage, Daniel understood the role of intimacy in getting along, and Jason felt the importance of commitment to his lover, and the three people’s insights formed Sternberg’s love triangle theory. Can you tell me this? Is it a coincidence? Life may go through many stages. No matter which stage you are in, you are looking for love, enjoyment, or endurance. There will always be one of the three stories that will give you a sense of enlightenment, passion, intimacy, or commitment. Feel it, don't hesitate, start to act.
