So, I was watching this chapter of “How
I met your mother” (himym) in which a young couple was about to get
married but failed to do it. It has a lot to be talked, according to me. Hope you like
my thoughts and if not, feel free to argue!
About the chapter:
Few weeks before the wedding, Lily,
wife of Marshal, decided to postulate secretly to an art course in
other country. She did it this way because if she had been accepted
she would have had to travel and cancel the wedding. Lily wanted to
know if she could be accepted, since her dream was to be a painter.
Situation that Marshal did not know. Once that Marshal realized of
her acceptance, they had to broke up due to Lily's dream. Despite of
their huge mutual love, they had different intentions. Finally, Lily
choosed to take the course mercilessly and the wedding was cancelled,
circumstance that would hurt Marshal real bad. Lily knew she would
broke Marshal's heart and being aware of that she still went to the
art course, destroying love between them. Over time, Lily recognized
she made a mistake and returned to Marshal's house to ask for his
forgiveness. Marshal kept his stance and said no to her, they had
something and Lily did not care about it.
My thoughts:
I can not understand why a person who
is happily engaged would sacrifice everything just by simple whim.
Moreover, why would she think she could return and expect all things
to be like it used to be? She needs to accept the consequences and
accept Marshal's attitude. What Marshal did was completely fine. I
can figure out Lily's wish to do her own stuff, but obviously she did
not think too much about it. Her individuality was quite unpredictable and finished with more than one disappointment. Maybe if she had give priority to more important things, the end would have been different.
Anyways, hope you could comprehend what
I wrote.
