Top 10 Smartest Decisions in Romance Movies

500 days of Summer is an important movie for everyone, sometimes we put our hopes and expectations onto someone without considering what they want

Yes and now he ends up with possibly one of the best looking woman alive, minka kelly.

[@trinaq]

I love that after Tom spends most of the film trying to make Summer into HIS idea of the dream girl, without caring about what SHE wants, he learns to rely on himself, and not his fantasy. And when they meet up again, he sincerely tells her that he's glad that she's happy.

[@andrewjones575]

He should have been glad to get loads of NSA action rather than trying to turn it into a committed relationship.

@@andrewjones575 it wasn’t what he wanted though

[@josefk7437]

Tom fell into a horrible depression, but then he recovered from it and started looking for jobs. I don´t remember him learning to rely on himself. It is left open. We the audience got to imagine how it goes with Autumn. I like to imagine that he still fails with her.

[@elgersmam]

I remember when I saw 500 Days of Summer. It's was a first date with a guy I'd met at a show a few nights before. He started crying (like sobbing heavily) at the end of the movie. He kept saying he knew how that guy felt and how the movie was "so romantic." I didn't know what to do besides hug the guy and then get outta there. Personally, I love JGL but Tom was kind of a jerk. I thought the movie was truthful not romantic. Never saw that guy again. A few texts but I was like "yeah, nah. I don't think you're ready to get back out there."

[@josefk7437]

JGL had to point out to the audience that if they liked Tom too much, then they should watch the movie again. Apparently too many people missed the point about Tom being a jerk.

Noah and Allie did not belong here. Noah was a moron who threatened to fall off a ferris wheel if Allie rejected him. He also had severe anger issues and he was a stalker. Allie would have been wiser to let him fall off the ferris wheel and his rival would have been a better match.

[@chelseacanales8763]

Those moments in romantic/rom-com movies made it worth watching. Sure, there are moments where it can be heartbreaking, but overall the characters are happy in the end.

[@angelaholmes8888]

I loved it that Noah continued to write Ali letters it's something that people no longer do these days ❤

[@samanthaengstrom8811]

Sure The Notebook letter thing sounds romantic but it could also be terrifying. Of course, that entire movie is problematic Emotional abuse from both sides.

500 days of summer is very relatable to me in a way I was like that in a way with my high school sweetheart and ex girlfriend Kerry we dated on and off from 2002-2004 and than again from 2006 - early 2009 and after that we broke up for good and we didn't speak for 2 years than we got reacquainted in December 2011 and than in March 2012 we reunited as friends and we were in what the young people call today a situationship where we were just friends but acted like boyfriend and girlfriend and we did that for 4 years from 2012-2015 and during those years I tried everything I could in my power to get back together again with Kerry but she just wanted to be friends and that was it and she kept playing mind games with me one minute she seemed like she was interested and than the next minute she pushed me into the friend zone and I just didn't understand it for so long and my friends and family and Co workers etc. Told me to give her up and move on because she was going to hurt me and I was in denial about it for along time and I didn't listen to them and was like u don't know what you are talking about and we are going to get back together again and get married and all that stuff and the sad ironic thing was they were right and than in September of 2015 kerry broke my heart ❤️ 😭 into a million pieces and told me that we were never going to be together and than told me that she never wanted to see me ever again and that she was moving on and starting this new exciting life and that she wanted nothing to do with me and I told her to never reach out to me ever again and I said to her screw you and hung up on the phone on her and that was the last time we ever talked to each other on the phone and than during the holidays of that year couple of my friends suggested that I date a girl named Claire and they thought that we would make a really nice couple ❤️ and at first I was alittle hesitant but I listen to them and I'm so glad that I did and than the Monday after new years I asked her if she wanted to meet me and she said yes and that Sat we met each other on our first date after talking on Facebook for about a year and from the moment we met sparks flew between us and we really hit it off and by the end of the first date I was head over heels in love with her and I wasted no time and 3 days later on January 12th 2016 I called her up and asked her to be my girlfriend and Claire said yes and we have been together ever since and we just celebrated our 6 Year anniversary yesterday and these last few years have been the happiest I've been in a very long time despite all thats happening in the world at least as far as my love life goes I've been very happy and I love my girlfriend more than life itself and there's no one else on this planet that I'd rather be with and we are going to be together for the rest of our lives and I'm probably going to marry her someday and it's just amazing 😍 ❤️ and the lessons learned in my situation when one door closes another one opens and don't go looking for love let it come to u it will happen when you least expect it to and that is so true in my case ❤️😊

[@mariadepazosbelmonte1502]

I really thank God that Lou broke up with Patrick. He was so selfish and he only cared about himself, he didn't care about her, about what she wanted.

[@msnewsenior]

Thank goodness for #7. Jasper was a toxic jerk.

[@dr.lisastinson8967]

A covert narcissist if I ever saw one. The worst.

[@josefk7437]

Tom does not find love or success elsewhere. He starts looking, but it is left too open ended to definitely say he found anything. He was still unemployed and looking for a dream job. He projected all his career expectations onto the architect profession and thought he was qualified, but he had no experience and he did not think about the viewpoint of the employers who hire architects. He just selfishly expected the architect profession to fulfill his professional desires and give him fulfillment and passion. It was as if Tom went to architect school because he saw romance movies that did not research the profession and he completely missed the point.

[@aderita209]

Hahaha I am an architect I can confirm I met many Tom’s in my career but they actually got the job because they were men.

If you are talking to 500 days of Summer, the 500 days were not the days he and summer were in the relationship, but the days Tom was infatuated with summer. (Starting with the day they first met, before he even spoke to her.)

[@andrewjones575]

@@bef9612 How long is the relationship?

[@bef9612]

@@andrewjones575 the movie doesn’t expressly say, but Summer openly says she doesn’t want a serious relationship. The movie gives it out of order. The movie is written from Tom’s perspective and 500 days starts when he sees her and ends when he meets Autumn. That’s when it’s effectively over, although she breaks up with him eatlier

[@delugadeluga3192]

I completely agree with list that you chose. I haven’t seen all those movies but now I’m definitely gonna watch them. There just one movie that I would add and it would be Lalaland: I know people didn’t like the fact they weren’t together at the end but I loved the end because it shows that love isn’t a happy ending by itself for everybody and you shouldn’t always give up everything you’ve been dreaming of for love.

[@ellenchavez2043]

In these "live stories" are the Full Court Press: where the guy persists beyond the comfort level to disrupt her job, other relationships and in general, her life. This is a form of grooming a target for control. A guilded cage with a kind, benevolent master is still captivity. The best romantic decision was evident in Lara Croft Tomb Raider 2. Lara's former lover tries to hirn in on her mission. She leaves him handcuffed to the ved as he is famous for making bad decisions and she doesn't want to have to shoot him. He escapes, horns in on finding Pandora's box, which he tries to talk her into selling. When cajoling fails, he assaults her. She shoots him and returns the box to it's place.

Why does 500 Days of Summer go back & forth at random between days? How can that be better than it being in order?

[@malikabernard966]

I could be wrong, but I think it’s told this way to depict how people remember their relationships. People don’t always remember how things play out from beginning to end and they can be very selective with the memories they keep. Sometimes when we look back we remember things sporadically-not always in order and not the journey as a whole. I think the makers of 500 days of Summer did this to show how Tom had very selective memories about his relationship with Summer. It’s not until near the end of the movie that Tom takes his sister's advice to remember all aspects of his relationship with Summer, not just the parts he chose to highlight.

[@andrewjones575]

@@malikabernard966 Is he an unreliable narrator?
