Finally, there is a movie to focus on long-distance relationships... Only those who have experienced the hardship and dedication of long-distance relationships know best. Going the distance pays attention to the difficulties of many long-distance relationships, such as untrustworthiness, physical loneliness, unsynchronized life, and the psychological anxiety of not being able to touch the lover's body. However, the depth is limited. Of course, this paper is not bad for a love story.
Erin and Garrett broke up because of the distance and work problems that could not be solved in the foreseeable time. During the breakup, Garrett said to Erin, I can't let you give up your job. Maybe the period after you return to New York with me will be good, but after a long time, you will resent me and I can't bear it.
For long-distance relationships, aside from other issues involved in this movie, the word "sacrifice" alone is enough to make another movie. There is always someone who has to make adjustments and give up his life to come to another city. This "sacrifice" is actually huge pressure. The one who is perfected will be afraid that he will fail the other party or be unable to satisfy the other party; while the party who pays will face many changes in life, and will be more or less psychologically disappointed. In fact, the test at this time is no less than the ongoing long-distance relationship. It is not impossible to change from a lover to a grudge.
In the movie, this process is skillfully bypassed. Garrett was set to dislike his job originally, and was quite unsatisfied, so he had the opportunity to chase his ideals in the future, and then moved to LA, the two can reunite. I would like to know if Garrett really likes his job and he can't find a better position in San Francisco, can the two of them have a happy ending? I understand it very well, and it must be "I think it's better to miss each other". What about falling in love again? Didn't Garrett say that the love that takes only three months to meet is no longer a relationship.
Distance is always helpless. Personally, I have wanted to scold "fuck the miles" countless times, but in the end I chose to sleep silently. After a lot of experience, I finally understand that the best of both worlds is often hard to find. When you find a partner who can make your life burst out with infinite passion and longing, what can your husband ask for? Many people, not also on the way to hope, may give up some of the beautiful scenery at hand, but the journey that is accompanied by others is what we want most.
For you, we must not be afraid of thousands of mountains and rivers, the corners of the world. Otherwise, don't have a long-distance relationship.
