In my Script Analysis class we have been studying Romeo and Juliet.
The Leo film version has been voted the greatest love story of all time by the UK population
Rightfully so.I mean seriously..has there EVER been a better romeo than THIS?
Speaking of Romeo, I'm hanging out listening to Aretha Franklin's "I Never Loved A Man" (download)
Aretha and Plato are some brilliant people.
Our boy Plato talks about (in rhetorical context, but whatever) a character called the "Evil Lover"
He says that this type of lover loves their mate as a wolf loves a lamb.But the most interesting thing he says is that--An evil lover never allows its mate to have an honest examination of it's alternatives.Got me thinking, next man I date-I am going to encourage him to check out all of his alternatives. What better way to know he truly wants to be with you? If he still chooses you instead of he seemingly greener grass, well, does that mean you have a loyal man? Maybe I haven't thought this one all the way through but, I would say so.
But what if a boyrfriend let ME do that?
Mmmm, about that. Well then I guess I would really have to be in love. Wait, that seems way too simple.
