And when a person starts to hurt you, then what he calls loving you is by no means the kind of love you think.
To be honest, I probably can't understand the anger of Gemma, and this marriage must be ended so miserably. I think it's probably because of love? After she knew the truth, she had induced Simon to tell her the truth again and again, and she was disappointed again and again. Even with such disappointment, she still tried to be honest and hoped for Simon's sincere remorse.
"Even if you are really unfaithful to me, I think I still, still love you."
How much courage does it take to say something like that? This fact made her ashamed and humiliated. But her dignity was stepped on by Simon, and he still refused to admit it.
"No, I didn't..."
Friends say that Simon can't tell the truth because he still loves Gemma. Maybe, yes, I probably believe that after living together for so many years, with lovely children and a stable family, Simon may still have Gemma in his heart. No, not maybe, but definitely. Just a problem with positioning. As the years go by, the role of the wife has quietly changed. She became a vague, chaotic character like mother, family, and friends, no longer just a woman who moved his heart.
However, these alone are not enough to satisfy Simon, he wants more. A twenty-three-year-old young girl is just right.
He must think this is perfect, so this underground affair can last for two years. Two years is not too short. From what she thought was three months at first, to when she found out from her mother-in-law that it had been two years, she began to feel restless. Three months can be understood as impulsive, but two years, two years is definitely not.
Neighbor Anna can accept the mercy of her loving husband. Jiama feels that she can be forgiven for three months. Most of them believe that their husbands still love them, and they are just having fun.
These self-deceiving women are terribly naive.
Gemma also tried to believe in a lot of things, that their breakup was very decisive, that he had changed his mind, that they could work through the problem and get back together.
And the real slap hurts. Gemma finally couldn't take it anymore, you did a wrong thing, you killed the man who i have loved. The point is no longer about cheating and concealment, but why are you doing this, you ruined the man I loved, you let My past fourteen years have become ridiculous.
Deception and concealment are already a result, the inevitable outcome of this betrayal. And the reason was never what I still love you. He started cheating, always because he looked down on you in his heart. He was not afraid of losing a woman after telling the truth, but the trouble and loss of control that would follow. He enjoys the satisfaction of being in control, maintaining the delicate balance as carefully as a tightrope walker. Embracing her young girlfriend and friends in a party in France, while expressing her heartfelt feelings to his wife in front of her friends, those touching words were tantamount to the deepest humiliation, embarrassing Gemma. It's hard to imagine how all the friends who know the truth will feel when they look at poor Gemma in the past two years. They'll think: "Oh, the poor ignorant woman"; and "Gosh, this man is so good." They must have thought so, and the men might even joke and flatter each other when they were drinking. Gemma's dignity? nonexistent. And Gemma, who has known nothing for the past two years, must be happy and joyful in her heart, enjoying the joys of ordinary life, and content with having such a husband and children, right?
You see, the "love you" and "being good to you" that men understand and the "love" that women want are fundamentally different species.
So Simon couldn't understand Gemma's revenge at the dinner table. Is it difficult to understand? Yes, because he couldn't see the pain of Gemma, the anger of Gemma slamming her head into the glass window, and the desperation of Gemma sinking to the bottom of the water.
i am not a bitch, i am a wolf tonight.
Gemma walks so freely, but this is not the truth of life. The truth is that this man, the child's father, begged her not to tell his son all this, and then turned into someone else's car. So why can't Gemma let the children see the truth for themselves? Why did the real bitch accuse the victim of fighting back instead?
Simon really disgusts me, knowing what I've done is a shameful thing, taking advantage of a mother's heart for her child again and again. Gemma avenged not his betrayal, but himself. She resented why he made her fall in love with such a person! After seeing all this clearly, is there any need to show mercy to this man?
Of course to kill them all.
Yes, many people in this world can end a marriage peacefully because they have left each other with dignity and good memories. Only Gemma can't, she wants to be fair.
Why should people who have done nothing wrong be punished? So it's kind of like an inspirational ending, a down-on ex-husband, a young but scruffy pregnant girlfriend, they're moving to London, and that's fine, go ahead and start your new life. I want to take my child and stay with my pain.
Gemma, who is so determined, may fall in love with others, and may no longer be interested; life may still be boring, but it will never be so bad.
If you want to learn something from this short five-episode TV series, then try to learn the words "deceive yourself", it will be useful. Stop your losses in time, stop all fantasies and self-deception, and leave the person who hurt you as soon as possible. Because when a person loves you, he will never hurt you.
And when a person starts to hurt you, then what he calls loving you is by no means the kind of love you think.
