Easy to Relate to

I just saw this movie tonight and I find it interesting she equates her boyfriend and their friends as "the past" and how she lets go of them all to move forward with her life. I just did this with my friends and I feel a weight lifted off my shoulders. Like I'm finally moving past my younger days and beginning my future as an individual. I know it sounds harsh but I do feel better about myself and life. Weird how that is for some reason? This movie really resonated with me a lot. The lagging in the 20s feeling. Good movie.

This movie really resonated with me, too. I loved it. And I completely understand you. I did the same thing four years ago when I started university - I let go of all my high school friends, and it felt fantastic. Not least because they weren't great people to begin with. But I felt like I really evolved from that, making new friends and having new experiences. Whereas they've still stayed friends with each other, which sounds completely boring to me, honestly.

I make it a rule not to talk to ghosts when I'm sober.
