Fuck the Miles

I gave this movie four stars, not because of how well it was made, but because it touched my heartstrings, something has been buried deep in my heart and I dare not touch it , because I know that every time I touch it not easily, I will be bruised and haggard by the impact of memories.
I experienced a long-distance relationship that lasted for almost half a year. I thought that it might be easy to get together and break up, but I didn't expect that in the end I would be so helpless and embarrassed to know that she and he were already together. There is no right or wrong in emotional matters, and I can't hold on to it. There are her reasons and my own reasons. All I can say is that a long-distance relationship is a test of the relationship between two people. If you can stick to it, of course it is the best. There are also many, many beautiful and happy relationships that have ended up being lost in distance. I have many friends and classmates who broke up in long-distance relationships because they couldn’t hold on to it. There are too many uncertain factors. When you miss her very, very much, you can't meet or hug, you can only smile silly at your lonely shadow. When she's sick, when she's in trouble, when she needs your help...where can you be? You can only comfort her on the other end of the phone. What is sandwiched between you and her is not the distance, but the helplessness and anxiety when you are powerless. Sometimes, what she needs may be a simple hug, but you can't do it, even if you have the ability, even if you can help your classmates through all kinds of difficulties, but you can't help the her you love, there is nothing you can do, Just sigh.
When you endure the cold, the spring flowers may already be blooming on her side. When you look at the bright starry sky and want to tell her that I miss you so much, the sun may already be shining on her side, with different environments and different things, and sometimes there will naturally be a lot less common language. When she tells you that she found something delicious in another store, you can only tell her "Next time let's go together!", next time, next time? How long do you have to wait next time, three months? half a year? Maybe there will be no next time. Lots of things you promised her to do with her when you got back, but will she wait for you until you get back?
Some things are not just your wishful thinking. You say you like her, and you can be together if you don't like her. Similarly, when she says she wants to break up, you can't keep it if you want to keep it.
Fuck the miles. This is a line in this movie. Farewell at the airport is what the hero said to the heroine, "Go to your mother's distance", how domineering this is! Maybe at this moment, the hero never thought that he would say to his beloved girlfriend a year later, "We can't see each other every three months, that's not a relationship." We have all tried to swear by our loved ones say: "I will always love you, I will never leave you." It's just that when we say it, we don't know that some promises are hard to fulfill.
There are many bridges in the movie. People who have experienced long-distance relationships will feel deja vu. They send text messages to each other, go to bed late just to wait for that phone call, just to wait for that good night, spend the holidays together through video, and receive messages from each other with joy. Gifts and inevitable quarrels, and endless longing.
It also took me a long, long time to come out of the breakup.
I know that long-distance relationships are difficult, so when I now know that my friends have long-distance relationships, I sincerely hope that they can go on well, be together well, don’t be defeated by distance, well, always well how nice.
I also hope that one day I can be with a very good girl I like very much and say with confidence: "Go to your mother's distance!".
