    Watching that movie is a gateway movie to becoming gay. So you mightve just fucked your relationship up.

      This is absolutely true. I am female and love a good chick flick but seriously, even I think that film is gay as fuck.

        You don't have to watch it to be gay but I saw like 4 minutes of that movie and it felt pretty homoerotic.

            SmokeEverything is another IINer with a unique perspective. To convert his replies to something that's applicable in the universe the rest of us share, you need to turn them 37.3° clockwise, move them 7.6 meters in the positive direction on the Z-axis, and Google translate them into Klingon, then to Japanese and then back into English.

    I haven't seen The Notebook, and having read the Wikipedia summary, I don't think I ever will. I'm not into big, slushy romance movies primarily aimed at the teen demographic, where pretty actors play young people being thwarted by prejudiced, status-obsessed old people, and everything goes badly for them until some implausible twist, at which point they finally find happiness and fulfilment, but then - another big, manipulative twist! - we learn that things don't end happily, and the story is wrapped up neatly by them both dying at the same moment (very romantically and with totally unrealistic tastefulness).

    It sounds to me like pure schlock, but shlocky movies are very popular, and it's pretty much the definition of a good movie-maker that they have the ability to use the script, imagery and the soundtrack to manipulate the emotions of the audience. There's nothing weird about you liking movies like this, since lots of women - and a few men - do, and it's possible you gained some sort of positive life-lesson from it. There's also nothing weird about your boyfriend being moved by a story about life-long love and two people being dedicated to each other to the end. Things don't always work out like that in the real world, but when we're young, we'd all like to believe that it's possible we'll find someone who's our soulmate and we'll live happily ever after.

    (In case you're new here, my_life_my_way is clearly either a psychopath or very good at role-playing at being one. So if you flip any of her answers 180°, you'll get the response that a mentally healthy person would give.)

    Not normal to cry over a movie or be so emotional about it. If my man had such an over emotional response or cried in front of me, I would lose all respect for him and no longer see him as a man.

      When do you think it is okay to cry? Honestly, I think a lot of the time you're on the money, people in the West are way too pathetic, can't hold shit together, cry at inappropriate times, or over inappropriate shit, but you have to let a little out sometimes.

      I don't think OPs boyfriend is being a huge pussy in this case.

        It is never okay to cry in front of people, especially not for a man.

    I just watched the preview.
    At least it isn't full of cell phones nor is Bruce Willis going around blowing up stuff.

        How so? I mean all I could gather was some poor guy was in love with a rich woman and the movie took place maybe early 1900's or before?

    Reality will strike in soon or later. Whatever you wished to settle for, whoever you've chosen to settle with.. prepare room to accommodate what reality, (it's not necessarily reality, I would say, but 'the human condition', as an accurate phrase,) has to bring to your desired state of relationship with that significant other.
