High Fidelity

This is a great movie for those who are going "why me" regarding relationships. This film is about Rob (John Cusack) searching for answers what is the reason behind his breakups: was it meant to be? why did it happen? Was it me? Was it her? One Word to describe it: Fate...throughout this movie is based on fate. and by watching this, I am like "Wow...this is exactly what I am going thru with my life"

This girl in the movie, her name happens to be LAURA and reminds me a lot of my 'old Laura'. She and him break up, and next thing he knows, she is dating someone else RIGHT AWAY LIKE MY LAURA IS....and she moves in with this guy LIKE MY LAURA DID. Rob struggles thru this movie, heartbroken, and so forth. However, this movie opened my eyes, and made me feel a whole lot better with my situation. Not only that, but with REJECTION. Man's simple weakness.

Rob: "Should I bolt every time I get that feeling in my gut when I meet someone new? Well, I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains."

So true about me

Rob: "I can see now I never really committed to Laura. I always had one foot out the door, and that prevented me from doing a lot of things, like thinking about my future and... I guess it made more sense to commit to nothing, keep my options open. And that's suicide. By tiny, tiny increments."

Part of this is true...I am not any better than that janitor guy she is with. I'm still nothing, don't hold a real job, still kind of a slacker. No woman wants that at all.

And...

"She's right! I broke up with HER!"

He broke up with this one girl in the movie, and shortly after, she had sex with another dude, and it hurt him. Exactly what happened with Laura and I. Why should I feel this way since I dumped her? is it competition 'tween she and I..who will find that someone first...I do not know. Ahhhhh!!!

I reccomend this movie to everyone who questions relationships. It saved my heart.
