Spicy, sharp, warm.
Brad's mid-life crisis is more advanced than ordinary people. He is not like ordinary people. With family crisis, he doesn't have to worry about being old, and he is very promising when he is young. He also has a wife who loves him.
His problem is precisely because of this. The couple worked for different non-profit organizations. It was because of his wife's easy-to-satisfy character that he lost his ambition for decades. He lived in a small city and lived a peaceful life. With college classmates rising to the top one by one, they are either rich or expensive. Until he was 47 years old and his son chose a university, his psychological balance was completely tilted.
He fell into contemplation and deeply reviewed his life. He felt that something more terrible than aging was that his life had settled and the possibility became less and less likely. He consciously or unintentionally solidified his social circle on the university campus, imagining that he still maintained a moderately tense competitive relationship with his former classmates, but he was no longer regarded as a competitor, and the university's circle of friends had long since lost him. position, although everyone still cherishes their friendship with him.
It is conceivable how frustrated a person will be if he constantly locks his competitors into those at the top of the pyramid. As a result, he became extremely sensitive, afraid of being ignored or even despised.
In the process of accompanying his son to choose a school in Boston, he accidentally discovered many good things about his son, and he even began to worry that he would be jealous of his son's achievements in the future.
He met the girl that his son met because of music. From the girl's point of view, he found that he was actually a lucky person who had enough. All the crises and unhappiness came from the psychological level, and there was a distorted world. .
But despite this, he still finds it difficult to let go of his entanglement and sensitivity. He still walks in the "friend circle" of his classmates who thinks he should still have a place in the image of a hedgehog, and he has not given up winning the "friend circle" by secular standards. Respect, until his introverted son told him that in his hotel room.
"People are selfish and no one will remember today I was embarrassed by what you did on campus because they all only care about themselves and the only person who cares about you is me, so if you must care Someone's opinion, that's my opinion - I love you."
