I just finished watching The Vow with Channing Tatum, and man. Why would I want to keep watching that kind of shit?
I mean, why do we keep wasting our time with this sort of nonsense? Real life isn’t like this. Yea, sure, maybe this one, in particular, is based on a true story. Think about it, though… how many great love stories do you know in real life. None of it is like this shit. Nobody is playing a great fucking song in the background when you meet, and it’s likely not going to be down-pouring as the first kiss happens.
I mean, I’m 30 years old. Why should I keep having those high hopes of one day just waking up, going to Trader Joe, and finding the love of my life as she buys peaches, and I’m trying to figure out which dry fruit would help me refuel after a run? Maybe it’s time to stop thinking my shit will turn out like the fake life of Channing Tatum.
All this shit out here is work; maybe that’s what I’ve been avoiding for the longest time in my life.
I got a great work ethic from my entire family, but maybe we all forgot how to work on happiness daily.
So yea, maybe this should be the last romantic movie I watch because I can’t take this shit anymore.
