“Romantic” acts that only work in movies

Often Hollywood deceives us so clearly that this lie is noticeable even to a person who does not understand the topic. Well, to see those embellishments or rather fantasies that are shown in romantic films, you don’t need to be an expert at all. Many of those "romantic" acts only work in the movies and would look ridiculous in real life.

Under the pressure of a public apology, a man agrees to give a second chance.

Often in romantic comedies you can see a scene where someone is guilty and tries to apologize to his already former partner, but nothing comes of it. Then he or she makes an extravagant attempt in the form of a public apology, such as singing a song under the windows of the house or kneeling down and repenting. Surrounding, seeing such romance, are connected to the process and try to persuade the offended. Under the pressure of public apologies and persuasion, he forgives, and everyone is happy and applauds, and the lovers kiss and laugh.

The effect of public pressure is well known in psychology, and is not a romantic act at all, but an attempt to put pressure on pity or use public attitudes for one's own purposes. It's more like bullying when the person being apologized to can't stand up to the crowd.

Falling in love starts with awkward actions.

For some strange reason, movies and TV shows, especially romantic comedies, often feature awkward scenes where a girl trips and falls in front of a guy and he immediately falls in love with her, or when a guy spills coffee on a girl, their hands and eyes meet. and there was a spark between them.

What's in reality? Rather, it will cause embarrassment, shame, or even aggression. Such awkward actions are perceived more as a humiliation, and there is only one desire - to quickly retreat to another place.

An interrupted marriage ceremony leads to the realization of falling in love with another person.

This is another common pattern even in films not billed as comedies. A man runs into the marriage ceremony of his lover or lover and shouts that he or she is against it. After that, the person who was just ready to put the ring on his finger immediately breaks off and runs into the arms of the “hero”, and everyone is happy, except for the abandoned bride or groom.

In real life, such an action looks at least ridiculous and will raise a lot of questions about the adequacy of the act among others. Well, the opponent of the marriage will simply be thrown out of the solemn hall.

Someone climbs to the second floor of the house and knocks on the window.

As a rule, in Hollywood films, such rock climbing is done by guys who, under cover of darkness, climb to the roof of their beloved's house, after which they knock on the window and ask to open it. The girl rejoices at such heroism and immediately lets her knight in, but slowly, so that the parents would not hear that someone else had entered the house. Now let's imagine what a girl will feel when a shadow knocks on the window at a height of several meters, vaguely resembling a face due to the fact that it is dark outside. She will most likely scream in fear and reach for her phone to call the police.

The girl gives up under long pressure and falls in love with the one who sought her.

It was from the movies that most guys got the "sacred" knowledge that if a girl says no, it's just because of her shyness or integrity. Keep reaching out to her every time you hear no, and you'll get through to her. She will melt under your pressure, seeing how much you want to achieve her location. And no matter how hard she unlocks at first, the main thing is that later she will realize how wrong she was.

It doesn't work like that in real life. Such attempts to hear “Yes” will run into resentment or even hostility. And all these phrases "No - it means" Yes "in the language of women" are best left in the past, where they belong. We are not saying that you need to give up after the first attempt, having ceased to seek a girl, there is simply a line that is better not to cross.

People drop everything and run away with someone they don't know well.

Movies are good because they end on the credits. Everyone is happy, at least the heroes in love, they are free to do whatever they want, including not thinking about the consequences of their actions. Well, what's wrong with the fact that they don't know each other well? The main thing is that they are in love, and the rest will work out somehow.

This is very bad advice, which, perhaps, some people followed in reality, considering it the right decision. Usually, such spontaneous actions do not end in anything good, because when the emotional outburst weakens and the partner is no longer assessed through the prism of rose-colored glasses, a sober look begins to cling to shortcomings and irritates both.
