i'm a sucker for romantic comedies. i even enjoy the cheesiest, sappiest kind, the most predictable, complete with "the grand gesture" and happy ending.
whenever i rope my husband into watching one, he does this thing that i absolutely adore. during the scenes where the main characters are professing their love or exposing their true feelings for one another, he reaches for my hand. sometimes what the characters are saying especially resonate with us at the time -- it could be something we've actually expressed to each other recently, almost word for word. other times we discover that a part of the pivotal scene (or any scene, really) is meaningful to us in some way. when i feel the warmth of his hand, it's his way of telling me he means all those things too. mushy, i know. but i love it.
i know that love is not always like how it's portrayed in the movies, but sometimes it can be.
