They had been working together as wedding planners for 3 years now. He was 24, she was 23. Business partners- her idea, his execution. Simple rule- feelings have no place in the world of business. One night, both drunk, they decide to sleep together. Since that morning, things change irreversibly. Awkwardness ensues- after all, she was the one who told him when they began their business together that love does not belong in the workplace. She starts to feel things for him- he doesn't want to let this affect their work, so he acts aloof. When she finally does bring it up, and pretends to be "cool" about the episode, he appears relieved. He refers to their rendezvous as a "blunder", a "distraction" of sorts.
It was then that it hit me- men can be so retarded emotionally! When i watched that film, I felt for the girl- someone recently said something similar to me. I know that it has nothing to do with me- but that doesn't stop me from feeling like my love is not welcome. I feel like a cheap whore, who is available to fuck whenever you want- just discard her whenever you feel like she's becoming too much of a distraction. I know that this is probably not true-I choose to give everyone benefit of the doubt- maybe men just need a tutorial in how to communicate their feelings. And I need a tutorial in how to not take things personally.
