The Movies Lie

The thing I hate most about movies is that the guy always makes a big gesture to win back the girl in the end. What is up with that? I hate that. First of all the movies, lately, have a man whore that goes around sleeping with any and every girl they see. Of coarse they have a sweet female friend that likes them. Once she is moving on and they man feels threatened they will lose her, what a surprise, they finally realize that they can't live without her. Of coarse they make some big romantic gesture and she accepts and they end up together. Now this scenario has so many things wrong with it. Why do they make all the guys such big sluts and the girls completely the opposite. Now personally, I would not not want to be with a guy that has slept with half the city of New York, its disgusting, and how is it that none of the women in the movie see that. Why can't the guy be someone that doesn't sleep around every night of the week? And why can't the girls be less angels? It's kind of like "Pillow talk". While I do like this movie it gets old.

Another huge flaw is that guys do not ever make a big romantic gesture in real life. This is the biggest flaw, because this has been a recurring theme since I can remember, and I'm sure longer than that. This is were girls get totally screwed. Women are tricked, from the time they are young girls, into believing that this kind of stuff happens all the time, that it is natural. How many girls imagine that when they actually find the love of their life that even if things go bad the man will realize the huge mistake he made and will make some kind of big romantic gesture to win you back. But this never happens. That is the movies, it is not real life. And yet because that is what we grow up watching we are brainwashed into believing that it really could happen, and keep that hope going. What a joke, like a guy is really going to admit that he made a huge mistake and try to get you back. This is the worst lie from movies, because it screws with our heads and hearts.

I wish the movies told more of the truth. The guy may have made a huge mistake, but he does not go back to the girl. The girl is changed forever and may not ever feel the same way about another guy as the first. The guy finds someone else and the girl finds someone else, but it is not the same and never will be. I like the ending of "Becoming Jane", because I feel like this is more likely to happen. The guy marries and has children, and the girl never settles for anything less than what she once felt for him, she never gets married. I find it super annoying that movies are still brainwashing girls to believe that men could actually behave in such romantic ways. I can't believe how easy it is to let crap like this make you believe it could happen in real life.
