It is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes

The male protagonist Adam has social disorder syndrome. On the surface, he is no different from normal people. The symptoms are that he can only express himself bluntly, and he will not be around corners, lie, or speculate on the thoughts of others. Falling in love with such a man is like talking about music with a person who has lost his hearing. The relationship is incomplete, not to mention the heroine Beth is a young literary woman with a delicate inner world. In my opinion, their love is more like a mutual warm relationship. Beth has an Electra complex. The original investment banker boyfriend should be a person similar to her father. He is sociable and charismatic. Chung-do is like her father, and unlike her mother, Beth can't accept the fact that her family and boyfriend are emotionally unfaithful. So Adam, who won't lie, is a safe haven for her who has been injured. As for Adam, Beth is the only person in his closed life who will take the initiative to contact him and is willing to enter his world. The plot goes on in the usual way, and it is easy to fall into the stereotype of two people supporting each other and working hard and finally reuniting, and the wonderful ending is all unexpected. Adam managed to find a job he liked and used his talents, but to go to California, he asked Beth to leave New York with him. Beth, who is in pain because of a broken relationship with her father, asks Adam why she wants her to go with him. Beth trembles and tells the truth, even though he understands the consequences of telling the truth. He told Beth that he needed her and that without her he couldn't handle his social issues and live on his own. Sad Beth realizes that Adam doesn't necessarily love her, he just depends on her emotionally and just needs her to take care of his life. As Beth's father told her, Adam is more like her child, and they broke up. The next day, Adam, who was suffering from social disorder syndrome, mustered the courage and finally took a step towards independence and traveled to California alone. Finally, we can see that Adam can begin to integrate into the society and have normal interactions with his colleagues. It is precisely because of the loss of Beth's love that Adam walks out of his closed world and gets a forest. Compared with Beth and Adam continuing to live in the small world of two people, I think this is a better ending. Although they are not together, it is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes.
