    I lived this short of the marriage. However, I'm pleased to say that we are still friends, best friends, to this day.....47 yrs. since the day we met. My life without her would be completely shattered. You can love someone with your whole heart and still not be able to love them the way they need to be loved.

    The feeling when you realise that clock has run out on a relationship is such a complicated mix of sadness, relief and everything in between. If it really meant something then something of your future identity as well as your current one gets all jumbled up.
    This was so well observed. Thank you

    The chemistry between both characters is mesmerising. You really do believe that they tragically fell in love and despite the changed circumstances , still do. Both actors are beautiful to look at, but convey a fragility which belies their handsome exteriors.

    They really care for each other, nice acting and they convey the message like natural flow, you can feel the blow. 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.

    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.

    I wish it was that easy to end the relationship. And then, "It's another sweet story of the free people living in a free world".
    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. Weldon Michael Landry and the rest of the team. Love from Pakistan ❤

    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 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!

    “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.
