the not so heavily guarded take on cheating in the media OR my review of match point

so this is going to be a thinnly veiled essay about my review of Woody Allen's new movie and the idea of cheating in the media. i have done a lot of research on romantic relationships and more importantly in the area of media related feelings about romantic stuff. when i mean a lot i mean i casually/half heartedly worked on some projects, read some things, and like to casually/always blab on and on about things when i consumed a half a beeramid of cans. i am not for cheating and let me get that on the record. yet i feel that it is a viable and important role to portray in the media. why? because it gets you thinking about the different types of human condtions/emotions. last night as i watch Jonathan Rhys Meyers betray his wife repeatedly i had to think what was he thinking. why was he doing this and then of course i would analyze my situation. cheating is such a fundamentally bad thing especially when it is on your wife and that comes from my upbringing. but if i sat here and wrote that it doesn't happen and isn't important to analyze from a psychological perspective then i would be doing the blah blah blah talk an injustice.

the human condition/emotions that were displayed in this tense and quite good film (good job Mr. Allen for making a good flick by the way) made me squirm and pay attention to everything. i can't say that i have experienced what i saw on film but i know what it is like to be in a relationship and the feelings that wrap themselves around your psyche. this world isn't easy and love is a big bitch that likes to kick you in the balls sometimes and rub it the others. every person can relate to some sort emotion when it comes to human infidelity or the real truth that of true fidelity. there is no science to these things and that is why a successful monogamus relationship is something so powerful. like i said i am not condoning anything but at least it makes people think about things and that is important in any manner of the fact because only then can beliefs or changes come out. i truly believe that.

Sometimes in life it is better to be lucky rather than good. i do believe that and i have been lucky and unlucky all in good shares of the term over the span of my 21 years. also i have learned absolutely nothing about anything and that is because i look to learn and think to much so i stopped thinking all together. try and follow that sentence why don't ya.
