This is not just a love movie. The group of patients in the work to treat addictive behavior is a classification under the concept of knowing group proposed by Rogers. A more precise name is synanon group. The male protagonist and the female protagonist encountered a conflict. The reason for the female protagonist's alcoholism was the male protagonist's overly powerful control, and the state of being omnipotent in front of the female protagonist, and even forgiving everything about the woman he loved. He did not want to see it. It is not jealous that his woman can do better than him, and even "make a difference", but he loves her very much. Only by doing this can the male protagonist give himself a sense of responsibility.

The heroine found an outlet, drinking, and drinking more violently. Only in this way can she release the depression in her life that she cannot gain a sense of identity. She needs equality and listening. I have never experienced the relationship between men and women in reality, but in my opinion it should be to give respect and space, trust and equality. It is not that you do everything for her, it is the best way for her, but to be with her. She feels empathy and understands her needs. This is the first step. A stable and intimate relationship requires two people with similar cognition and brain circuits. Everyone understands each other's needs. This cannot be done unilaterally. It is a high state that requires common learning and the similarity of long-term values.

When a Man Loves a Woman quotes

  • Alice Green: That is a sad little ensemble!

  • Michael Green: My wife is an alcoholic. Best person I ever met. She has 600 different smiles. They can light up your life. They can make you laugh out loud, just like that. They can even make you cry, just like that. That's just with her smiles. You'd have to see her with her kids. You'd have to see how they look at her, when she's not looking. To think of all the things she lives through, and I couldn't help her.

    Alice Green: Maybe helping wasn't your job.

    Michael Green: Well, it wasn't. See I love her. And I tried everything, except really listening, really listening, and that's how I left her alone. I was so ashamed of that, and I couldn't even tell her. Maybe if I tell her she'd love me anyway.

    Alice Green: Or more. She would have loved you even more. I think you should tell all this stuff to your wife.
