incomprehensible love

Read Almodovar's "Tie Me, Tie Me". To be honest, the first feeling after watching the movie is: speechless. I still can't understand how Marina ended up falling in love with Richie - the man who kidnapped himself, broke one of his teeth, and made himself so scared for days. Is it because he went to the black market to buy medicine for himself and was beaten all over? Is this love? In other words, this 23-year-old man who lost his parents at the age of 3 and only had 50,000 bezantas on his body, did he really enter Marina's heart?
People are fickle, and women especially. The Bible says that a woman is the bone of the man's bone and the flesh of the flesh, and she is but a rib of the man. To a certain extent, this determines a woman's subordinate status in society and determines that she is more susceptible to temptation. As for Marina, the change in her attitude towards Richie also seems to show that women are more easily moved, more emotional, and more likely to heal the scars and forget the pain. Before she told Richie to let him give up, she could not fall in love with him, but when she was finally rescued and could escape, she suddenly told Lola: I fell in love with him. A man walked into her heart like this, relying on the tough binding on the body at first and the gentle intrusion in the heart later.
In the discussion with the dormitory, she said that she likes such a man very much. It turns out that the world is really big, and everyone has their own tastes. In her eyes, this kind of domineering intrusion by men can just make up for the inconvenience caused by women's more restrained and shy characters. But my question is: can the relationship between Richie and Marina really be called love? Does what is so beautiful about love have to begin in such an irrational way?
At the end of the film, Marina cried. There may be many reasons. For example, she was relieved that her family accepted such a man, and she was happy that she had found love. Her tears were beautiful, and she had found her for her children. Father, found a husband for himself, but is this man really suitable for Marina?
