Default Question ???

I was just watching a Hollywood movie today and something occurred to that it has become extremely commonplace to show that you only find romantic love not in your own relationship but only outside of your current relationship.I mean for god sake in the movie the GF breaks up with her BF after ,doing the deed with his brother, and the brother without a moment's consideration takes her and does his stuff without a day passing by.
I really felt sick as to the ease and subtlety writers wrote it and made it look as if it was cool.
I mean has western values system has become so perverted

That's an interesting observation. You are right. I guess they would say it reflects reality. Personally I think it may cause more trouble than benefit to keep on showing those scenarios leading to 'better than you've got' results. Others may disagree

I usually read the synopsis before watching a movie. Even though it's not your values, you can be negatively affected by spending your screen time in front of this material.

I couldn't guess what movie youre talking about but the moral of all these is you don't waste your time chasing and trying to salvage a relationship with someone who will replace you at the drop of a hat.

Yes, i've seen that a lot. But take note that in the media men do that (take their cheating partners back) but women almost never do. I think that this means something.

I agree the first two seasons were hilarious, kinda went off a bit after that.
