500 Days of Summer... worth watching!

I wasn't too keen on seeing this movie, but I got dragged into watching it... let me tell you, I'm glad I did... Hollywood made a blueprint of what NOT to do when you want to get women! I swear, I wanted to SLAP the main character around so bad, he was a huge AFC! He made every wrong move in the book, and he was such a chump.

Just thought I'd mention this, it's not your typical romantic comedy.

What's more interesting is that Summer exhibits many traits of a Cluster B woman - a creature much talked about on this forum. The actress Zooey Deschannel has the perfect look for a Cluster B - the eternal ingenue look.

I think the main character got away with minimum damage. Lucky fella.

Actually just watched it today.

I thought it was interesting, at least more interesting than the typical cookie cutter Hollywood romance.

Obviously, the main character is by no means a role model. He does just about everything wrong.

What I did find interesting about it was the portrayal of the girl. As Jitterbug already mentioned, in a lot of ways she is what to look for if you want to spot a BPD girl. But even aside from that, her emotions are key here - it doesn't matter if something makes sense, it felt right to her, so she did it.

This is how women work, both Cluster B and to a lesser but still large extent, all women.
