Together

This movie hit WAY too close to home. As someone who was in an unhealthy co-dependent relationship this movie really imbedded the physical representation of a relationship like this. Literally some lines in the movie were things in my relationship. Not cooking, I couldn’t drive, moving to a place to follow a partners school/career. Man this was rough, I was having nam flashbacks. EDIT: I was blind, but now I see. My boyfriend sat my ass down and explained his interpretation of this film and man am I blown away. I can’t even explain it all. But in short as possible this movie is the story of two people in an unhealthy co dependent relationship who are now having to cooperate to save themselves and their relationship too. In a relationship it is hard for others to see the relationship how both of you see it together. In fact it’s almost impossible to do so. All we can do is observe from the outside in. This couple grew complacent and bored with each other and were LITERALLY forced to grow together in order to become whole. In a relationship/ in life we are constantly changing. We may feel the same but change is never ending. Life requires change, together or apart.  PS. This co dependency relationship I’m referring to is now a healthy one with the same guy. We broke up for a year and came back better. 11 years together, healthy, happy, and slowly attempting to work together to become the best version of our love ❤️
