So or so?

The older I get, the more I feel that things that were far away from me in the past may actually be around me; I used to think I would never be the same as other people, or even understand why they would do it, but now I feel that I have escaped the probability of being "other people" Also not that big.

Unfaithful, it's a story of cheating. After thinking about it for a while, I went back to the old-fashioned topic - choice.

Everyone rightly thinks that forever is romantic, but in fact, it may be more boring. When this happens, responsibility vs desire, family vs ego, different choices lead to different outcomes and different lives. First of all, I want to rant about the plot. First, I didn't feel the heroine's dislike of the comfortable and happy rural family life, or not to the extent that she pursued an exciting life and was hopelessly fascinated by a book seller who lived in a temporary house. And the story doesn't show that the younger brother is obviously better than the husband, and I don't see that the younger brother has such a great charm. Second, in the end, the plot of the husband accidentally killing the younger brother is a bit... strange. The tension was created very well, and the rhythm of the elevator and the police coming to the door was quite rhythmic, which made me feel nervous, but there was no divorce? According to the male protagonist's personality, he fired him because he suspected his subordinates, but he did not divorce in the face of his wife's betrayal, which was slightly inconsistent. However, it is difficult for honest officials to break up household chores, and divorce is indeed more difficult to decide than opening a person. And he really loved her so much.

Back to the choice, the little brother said a sentence in the film, which means that there is no right or wrong, only do or not do. Indeed, even if it is cheating, it is hard to say whether it is right or wrong. Isn't it a big mistake to betray your family and give up your responsibilities? But is it wrong to pursue what you want and realize your wish while you are not too old? But adults have to think about the consequences of doing things. If you choose passion and desire, you will suffer the consequences of family breakdown; if you choose family and responsibility, you will suffer the consequences of unfulfilled desires in the only life you have. So I thought again, how do I choose my partner? The things you like about a person, those cute flashes, may also be the cold light from the sword that hurts you in the future. If you like her down-to-earth, gentle and quiet lady, you may have to face the blandness and boredom in the future; if you like her initiative and enthusiasm, then when your enthusiasm fades, where will she look for enthusiasm? For girls whose bodies need to be satisfied, it is difficult to say whether they will pursue novelty in the future. They all say that "adults don't tell right or wrong, they only look at the pros and cons", which is not wrong at all. How to see the pros and cons? Think about the consequences, if you can accept it, choose to do it, if you can't accept it, don't do it.

What exactly is marriage? Do I need marriage? Do I want to get married? How does a marriage work? These are unsolved mysteries. But I don't trust marriage, I don't trust myself and I can't trust her in the future (though maybe I haven't seen it yet). Or maybe life would be a little easier if they didn't love each other so much.
