Breakup Movie of the Century: 500 Days of Summer
If your heart is breaking right now and you are losing faith in love…
you gotta watch this movie.
I know it’s old, but I just saw it! It’s my favorite Indie movie right now. Here’s the trailer:
You can actually learn a lot of truth about relationships from this movie! (don’t read below unless you’ve seen the movie!)
“Just because she likes the same bizzaro crap you do doesn’t mean she’s your soul mate.”
“Look, I know you think she was the one, but I don’t. Now, I think you’re just remembering the good stuff. Next time you look back, I really think you should look again.”

Summer: Well, you know, I guess it’s ’cause I was sitting in a deli and reading Dorian Gray and a guy comes up to me and asks me about it and… now he’s my husband.
Tom: Yeah. And… so?
Summer: So, what if I’d gone to the movies? What if I had gone somewhere else for lunch? What if I’d gotten there 10 minutes later? It was – it was meant to be. And… I just kept thinking… Tom was right.
Tom: No.
Summer: Yeah, I did.
[laughs]
Summer: I did. It just wasn’t me that you were right about.
Big takeaway? If she’s/he’s not that into you, it’s not that love doesn’t exist, it’s that love doesn’t exist with that person. Don’t get bitter. Don’t give up. move on. move forward. Someday, it will be mutual.
