I've been feeling depressed for a big part of last week and i thought i had gotten away from my sadness yesterday....
I had Saturday work and my boyfriend kept asking me during the early part of the day what time i'd be done from work...I was kinda frustrated from the questioning but it was all worth it in the end coz we met up at G4 and watched Laws of Attraction. Call me shallow but a good movie at the mall always manages to cheer me up. I wasn't expecting a marvelous movie and yes, i it wasn't BUT my bf and i both felt that we watched the right movie at that point in our relationship. Could it be God's hand at work?
Laws of Attraction, starring Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore.
High-powered divorce attorneys, Audrey Woods and Daniel Rafferty, have seen love gone wrong in all its worst case scenarios--so, how bad could their chances be? At the top of their respective games, Audrey and Daniel are a classic study in opposites. She practices law strictly by the book; he always manages to win by the seat of his pants. But soon they are pitted against each other on opposite sides of a nasty public divorce between famous clients, with the case centering upon an Irish castle that each future divorcee has their sites set on. Audrey and Daniel travel to Ireland to chase down depositions, yet the two lawyers, who have been slowly developing a mutual attaction that neither wants to acknowledge, find themselves thrown together at a romantic Irish festival. After a night of wild celebrating, they wake up the next morning as man and wife. Maybe getting married first is the best way to fall in love.
Sorry if i had to spoil the movie. The message that the attraction of New York City's 2 divorce lawyers is simply this, don't give up on your marriage/relationships. Rather than putting up a fight to have a successful divorce, why not transfer the passion to fight for a successful relationship instead? Don't give up when the going gets tough, you'll be able to pull through if you really want it to work.
That was great inspirational advice i got from the movie coz i'm the one in the relationship who usually gives up first when things get difficult. I don't fight for what we shared, i don't fight for our love.
I'm just glad i watched the movie and revived my passion for our relationship. But not long after that, i encountered some rough patches again. I know i shouldn't give up and i didn't. That's why i'm feeling bad right now. I feel depressed coz i don't seem to know how to comfort someone when they're feeling bad. Honest, i really don't. Sigh.
Why? I don't know. Root Cause Analysis? I've got lots of theories but what matters most is that i learn how to comfort. It's not just with my boyfriend, but with my friends as well. I'm serious. Who won't be depressed with that?
Help. Boohoo.
