Ow the pain!
Oct. 22nd, 2011 02:07 pmYou know how some people delve into their work, etc, to stay busy and distracted?
I've done that with TV shows since, oh, I don't actually know... Around 2005, I do believe?
I've discovered a huge flaw in this unhealthy obsession of mine! Well, I mean, apart from it perhaps being generally unhealthy to watch so many episodes all the time. Pfft!
When you put all your effort into escaping via fictional work of art... and it turns out bad, then it sort of hurts.
Now, this is not news to me. I've always been a bit emotional when it comes to movies and series. I've cried like a little baby before! Especially when it comes to TV series when you have time to get attached to characters and such.
Now, of course, the last couple of years it's been getting more intense. I get very emotionally invested in things I watch. It's both good and bad, I'd say! (As long as you know where to draw the line. ... Which I clearly don't XD)
And now I've sort of made the mistake of watching the most painful movie ever. (To me, at least, because of personal issues, etc, I don't know if you'd feel the same way. Although I can say that it IS generally heartbreaking.)
I literally knew nothing about it when hitting play! All I knew was that my newobsession celebrity crush was in it. Apparently he was the main character as well, and it was a very sad movie.
A very sad movie.
