Beth Reekles, the author, says that "I just really wanted to read a regular high school romance, and when I couldn't find that, I wrote my own." This movie was written by a teenager for teenagers and young adults. The movie was talked about all over social media from the day it was released. Regardless teenagers and young adults loved it. The best friend eventually finds out and is very upset they fight then makeup, also very cliche. The film was about an adolescent girl who falls for her best friend's brother, how classic. This previous summer Netflix released a couple of romance movies that were basic. I left for college confident that we were in a good place.Ĭurrently, romance movies have been all anyone can talk about, primarily on Netflix. Sure, 150 miles apart isn't ideal but it could work, it would work. I realized I had become the person that was okay with long-distance. I sometimes thought to myself, "Is this the best idea? Putting him through this?" "Am I selfish for wanting to be with him when I wasn't actually with him?" "What will distance to "us"?" However whenever I asked myself these questions, I always knew what the right answer was. I tried not to think about it because I tend to be an over-emotional person (overactive tear ducts, I promise) and I know he did too. Summer rolled around, and moving away came closer and closer with each passing day. When we started out I wasn't thinking about college, or moving away, or what the distance would do to us I was just living in the moment and taking things one day at a time. We started dating on December 27th, 2016 and looking back, I cannot believe how far we've come. When he (finally) asked me to be his girlfriend, it would have been stupid to say no because what is better than dating your best friend? No worries, I can answer that for you. This was not just about having a date to prom, or wearing a football jersey on Friday, it was genuinely about being with my best friend. This wasn't an ordinary, "high school relationship" that lasts maybe a total of 4 months. When I met Nolan I knew things were different.
