All those wonderful films that end with the guy getting the girl and going off into the sunset. It always looks so perfect - so incontrovertibly fantastic.
I have news for you - it always goes wrong. Horribly wrong.
I know this because when we see a sequel, how often is the relationship in tact? Almost never. So, it doesn't take much of a stretch of imagination to realise that none of them work out. They simply can't. It's good for a while, then it goes wrong.
So we're OK.
It sometimes works out, but not nearly so one-dimensionlly blissfully.
