The Ugly Truth 2

I finally watched the movie " The Ugly Truth". Although there are some "sexual terms" used or hinted in the movie which I believe are indeed explicit and at times make people bit uncomfortable, the movie itself is really funny and humorous; and not to mention the insights in relationships which make it even more interesting.

Foremost, it seems to indicate that one should enter a relationship by simply being yourself. In the movie, the female leading actress started to enter a relationship with the handsome doctor neighbour. But she was not being her normal self when she was dating him. She was simply "pretending" to be someone self. Pretending that she was not a control freak. Always being so elegant and calm. As such, the handsome doctor neighbour was eventually "in love" with someone who was not actually her. And in the end she realised she actually preferred to have someone who loved the real her.

Secondly, there might not be any specific reason why people fall in love. While people might have checklists to start with, but eventually I guess what people wanted to be with is someone who they are comfortable with and could accept who they really are.

Thirdly, I guess what the female leading actress said is rather true. Many women believe that men are like those portrayed in novels - heroic and will not run away from reality. But in the reality that might not always be the truth. And maybe that is the reason why men are always portrayed as hero and the perfect lover in novels or drama series. Because that is the dream of every woman. Because if people want to read the truth, they will be reading news and not novels! =P

So throw away all the guidebooks in relationships and start seeing the real truth - which is of course not pretty... haha...
