OMG. The movie Becoming Jane with Anne Hathaway and James Mcavoy. It’s a very strong love story, but they can’t be together. It’s really sad. You must watch!! It’s exactly what you describe: “a guy n a girl wanna be together so bad, but they cant, and at the end, they end up goin separate ways, never to go out again, but they occasionally see each other in the future when both or one of them have a family.”

How about Romeo and Juliet? It was actually based on a novella that takes place over a longer timeline, so you could read that too. Carlito’s Way (Al Pacino) is an action movie that has a real romance in it (what can I say I’m a guy), and the ending is also not happy. Cruel Intentions is a movie about a womanizer who makes a bet about his ability to seduce a particular young woman, and falls in love. It also ends badly. Chasing Amy is a pretty raunchy comedy with romance that does not end perfectly.

Mine are all a bit gruesome - there are however hundreds of sub-titled ones I could suggest as the Europeans love unhappy endings - thrive on them. Let me know - Mas

The Breakup & Wedding Crashers (Vince Vaughan)- but they are just funny (well Wedding Crashers anyway) - and they are no Romeo and Juliet and I wont spoil the ending. Just realised people could recommend films that have happy endings and you wouldnt know until the end. So perhaps ignore both of these - Mas

The movies contain a grain of truth per ounce of fiction. Most of the ones I mentioned involve one or both of the couple dying. Also consider that in real life you can have more than one love. So if you are not going to be with the girl you love consider that you will find another.

That is true because most of the view of guys in romance movies is either the biggest ******* or the wimpiest guy ever who gets the girl in the end. This wimpy guy worships the woman like they are a god or a princess. In reality those wimpy guys don’t get ANY. The ******* gets layed but he doesn’t have a good relationship. But if you are in between both, the middle ground, you get good relationships and you get layed . This good guy is Confident, funny and fun to be around. It doesn’t matter how quiet they are, some women prefer quiet guy because the women get to talk more. For example I’m a quiet guy but i am confident and i don’t wanna brag but I’ve done OK.

I gotta say, in the movies it is usually black or white, but in real life a woman is looking for more than the right shade of grey, or the right mix of confidence. Women and men need to be concerned with matching up with partners who are compatible with each other also. It doesn’t matter how much confidence a guy has if he is with a woman who is not the right type, or if he is not the right type for her. A good example of all confidence and no personality is Chilli Palmer in Get Shorty and Be Cool. This guy is smooth as a baby’s behind, and seems to do well in the movies, but his character seems to be one dimensional. In the real world Chilli Palmer would only get so far.

Well the way i think of it is this. People attract people who are like themselves. Fat people attract fat people Fit people attract fit people, people who like Yiddish shoe logging like Yiddish shoe loggers.(I have no idea what a Yiddish shoe logger is) If you’re not confident you don’t attract people who are confident, people who are low self esteem which isn’t exactly healthy. Its like if you don’t put fertilizer on plants they doesn’t grow as big. If you your self are mentally healthy you will attract the same

Women don’t like wimpy guys who are always available and do as they wish and buy them gifts. women like a confident person who can hold their own. Some women like to feel like they are protected. Like in another post a bunch of women said that the favorite part of a man is his arms because they wrap around me and make me feel warm.
