Well it looks like we are all making out at the movies - literally and that goes for hot new TV and movie star couple Kaley Cuocot (Big Bang Theory) and 'man of steel' star Henry Cavill.
But really is life a movie script?
You've seen it happen in the movies dozens, if not hundreds of time. Boy meets girl. Girl falls in love with boy. Boy breaks girl's heart (mean boy!). Girl breaks up with boy. Boy makes heroic effort with giant 1980's boom boxes, saying "hello," flying a jet, and countless other antics to win her heart back. The problem is, one person is writing the script for both of them in the movies. They're playing pre-defined roles and following cues. Real life doesn't quite work that way.
Lack
of Originality
Unfortunately,
a lot of guys haven't gotten the memo. You're still trying to use moves that
have been used before. Sadly, these are moves the girls you're trying to get
back together with already know about too.
Your
ex doesn't want you to copy something that's been done before. If you're going
to make a move to get her back, it had better, at the very least, be original.
It needs to be something she hasn't seen before. It also needs to be something
that you would do. It needs to appear sincere. Using movie lines as your guide
makes her feel as though she isn't important
enough to you for something original.
Not
Appropriate for Your Situation
Every
relationship is different. Every breakup is somewhat unique. You can be having
the same arguments as 10,000 other couples around the world, but there are
things about the two of you and your situation that make those same arguments
and situations unique.
Alternative
Endings Worth Considering
That
is, of course, if you're going for movie magic effects. However, you could do
something else altogether. Something she may even find curious and shocking.
You could let her go -- at least for a little while. Instead of going after the
girl, give her a little time to think things through.
Absence
really does make the heart grow fonder. Then, after a little time has passed,
chances are you won't need to call her. She'll call you. When that happens, you
can both enjoy a happy ending that's much better than anything Hollywood could
come up with because it's the story that belongs to the two of you and no one
else.
