    Excellent actors, writing, producing. Great work guys.. The story was so gut wrenching and the actors didn’t miss an opportunity to make you feel. Seeing him start to break down when the taxi drives off.. made my heart sink.. and seeing the tears falling down her face.. said they truly loved each other. I would love to see a follow up a few years later. I would love to know if his relationship lasted and if she found someone to heal her broken heart!

Im glad it was not a movie or a series because the audience would have had to endure the pain of actually seeing the relationship fall apart and I liked both of the characters. So let me just say this was excellent film making and I look forward to your other projects.🙂

    A beautifully cruel film. Men know exactly who they are from day one, even at a primal level. You don’t try to cover your insecurities with another and then realize you need to be free. Step outside of the bubble long enough to know that what you think you need is truly not what you want. Be honest with yourself if no one else.

    Sarah Hagi - from Scamfluencers - said it poignantly when she reminded us that ‘divorce is always an option.’ I was in a relationship with a man who was sexually confused; we are definitely not friends; it took me a long time to finally pack my things and walk the f**k away, plunging myself into unknown and having to change the entire trajectory of my own life-path. The point is: no matter who it affects, no matter how big the consequences seem, no matter how treacherous the pain may feel, the other side of a divorce is necessary and it teaches you to be strong.

    • @marecku21
      @marecku21 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Grayson left his wife Sarah because he's gay. So it was a faux hetero couple. Far from being a small chapter, the gay part dominates the entire story.

    • @maximilianschwab9668
      @maximilianschwab9668 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@marecku21 Grayson left his wife because he was in love with another person, which is often the cause of the end of a lot of couples. This third person is in this "incident" another guy. These kinds of cases end up with the guy hiding his not-so-straight side, and dumping the other guy. This situation is different, the story has a respectful ending, which is a good thing, but the story "per se" just shows a line of "straight" pictures and situations about a divorce. BTW there are no such things as "faux" straight couples. Almost half of humanity - without religious taboos - has a fluid sexuality. And if you didn't know, regulation of sexuality gives excellent leverage to instrumentalize humans in every self-destructive way that you could think of and opens every possible door to abuse them. There is always a political organization behind these kinds of manipulative ways. Churches, States, or pharmaceutical companies, the names are different, but the goal is always the same!

    Beautiful film, well acted but it's not heartwarming. It's sad. When Grayson should have been coming to terms with his sexuality, he caved to society's perceived norms for acceptance and married. And when he did finally admit his desires, he ruined another person's life. "You get to move on. I have to." Sad, but all too often true.

However, this is an excellent short which does, in the best possible way, what a story or a film in this case is supposed to do, connect with the audience in a purely emotional way.

    “I did the only thing that I could and that was to burn my life to the ground.” Uhhhh no. You burned *her* life to the ground. It’s exactly what the wife said: You get to start a new life, while she *has* to start a new life. As in she has no other choice. She has no choice but to wake up every morning knowing the man she fell in love with never loved her and is never coming back. She has no choice but to grieve and feel like she wasn’t good enough. You on the other hand get to be who you were meant to be. Your misery is over. Do NOT compare your pain to hers! Note: Yes, I’m aware it’s only a story. But things like this happen all the time. And it’s devastating.

The message is great and the creation, I just felt I'm in there physically. Stories like this happened and sadly not all ending like this,accepting and understanding even it hurts, mostly end up messy, tough being an enemy.
