my favorite scene in before sunset.

it's not so easy for me to be a romantic.
You start off that way, and,
after you've been
screwed over a few times...
You... you forget about all your
delusional ideas, and you
just take what comes into your life.
That's not even true, I haven't been...
screwed over, I've just had too many...
blah relationship. They weren't mean,
they cared for me, but...
they were no real...
connection, or excitement.
At least, not from my side.

You know...
it's not even that, I was...
I was fine.
Until I read your fucking book!
It stirred shit out from you,
It reminded me how...
genuinely romantic I was,
how I had so much hope in things and...
now it's like...
I don't believe in anything
that relates to love,
I don't feel things for people anymore.

In a way...
I put all my romanticism
into that one night
and I was never able
to feel all this again.

Like...
somehow this night took
things away from me and...
I expressed them to you and
you took them with you!
It made me feel cold,
like if love wasn't for me!

You know what?
Reality and love are almost
contradictory for me.
It's funny...
Every single of my ex-es...
they're now married!
Man go out with me,
we break up,
and then they get married!
And later they call me to thank
me for teaching them what love is, and...
that I taught them to care
and respect women!

You know, I want to kill them!
Why didn't they ask me to marry them?
I would have said "No",
but at least they could have asked!!!
But it's my fault, I know that
it's my fault, because...
I never felt it was the right man.
Never!

But what does it mean the right man?
The love of your life?
The concept is absurd,
the idea that we can only be
complete with another person is...

EVIL!

Right?

You know, I guess I've been
heart broken too many times.

And then I recovered.
So now, you know,
form the starts, I make no effort.

Because I know exactly what hap...
