Did anyone think...


He had terminal cancer or something? Or was that just me...probably just me. All the talk of no future, she can't/won't fall in love with me, live in the now, blah blah. I was so confused at the end, like, oh he ISN'T dying?

It's a coming of age story where the young character goes from point A to B in the growing up cycle. His immature beliefs of living in the now due to fearing the future (thanks to his self esteem affected by his breakup with ex) were challenged and tested, and he realized that you can't look at life that way. You have to look forward to a life ahead of you cause you can become a waste or lose what you love at any time. So instead of drinking and being a drunkard like his deadbeat dad, he wants to be the opposite.

No but for some reason I thought we were going to find out his dad molested his sister. So I too was waiting for some big revelation that never happened.
