dunno what title to give

I was watching a movie the other day but I seriously forgot the title. It was quite an old movie but since I had nothing better to do and besides, I don’t have Astro to simply surf here and there so I choose to watch it and it turned out to be a pretty good story, not the whole of it but at least the end.

Well, the movie was practically about this married lady, Jean and married guy, Roger ,both were married to two different people but liked each other. They went out for movies together etc and even though they loved their spouses, they couldn’t resist the attraction that they had for each other.

So this guy, Roger booked a room to do “u know what” with Jean (I hated this part coz the way they did it was practically as if they just wanted to have sex with each other) and Jean ran away, saying that she cannot commit adultery and cheat her loving husband.

So she will run away, stay in a motel and call Roger, saying sorry and then a few days after that, Roger will call her up and they will meet at a beach. That was when Jean said something that really touched my heart.

“I know I am attracted to you but I forgot that I had the same attraction towards my husband when we first met. But as time went by, the passionate love turned towards a different kind of love, with gentle pecks and cuddles, not longer passionate. But still, we love each other and the love remains the same. When I first met you, I felt strong attraction but I forgot to remind myself that I had the same love with my husband when we first met. Sometimes we don’t value what is in front of us and when we do, it will be way too late, I don’t want to commit that mistake.”

How true…sometimes we maybe in a deep commitment and when we meet new people, we find new attractions and straight away we think, our old love is not passionate anymore, fading etc etc..We keep finding fault with each other but we never stop and think, that the attraction that we feel for the other person, we once had it with our spouses.

Well, back to the story, Roger will tell Jean that he is moving out coz if he still stays there, he will still be coming after her… so in the end, Jean will say”im gonna walk away from you now and never look back” and while she walked away, Roger will shout saying that he loves her but Jean, crying, ran to her car and went home.

At home, she will see her hubby and hug him, saying I love you…the surprised hubby will look at her ,kiss her and smile back..and ask what happened to you suddenly. “well, I have been away for a while and now im back for good”…

The end
