Forrest and jenny

[26letters=truth]

Love is tricky. People don’t decide who they fall in love with, when, or why. Remember the movie Forrest Gump? Forrest had so much love for Jenny yet she just didn’t feel the same way about him. She always knew that she could count on him and rely on him and be there for her, be the best friend that he was. Sometimes in life, a friend is the best thing ever and not because of the non-sexual element that it implies but because of the lack of expectations. With friends, there isn’t a push towards cohabitation or marriage or kids. The only requirement of a good friend is for them to be there for you and for you to be there for them, nothing more. When people become more than friends, that friendship that was once there dies because the level of comfort you had to just be yourself decreases. You become more hesitant about being perfectly honest or acting totally stupid and crazy like you normally would. Things change. Even Forrest recognized that he had to let Jenny do her own thing and live life according to her definition of it and not his. And in the end, Forrest had more of her heart and trust and love than he ever knew. See, Forrest let Jenny be herself and make mistakes but always he was there when she needed him, always that one person she could count on to love her for her. Why does the world not have more people like Forrest Gump? So who is my Forrest? And more importantly, who is my Jenny, that person who needs me to be there for them and support them through all the obstacles that life throws at them without passing judgment, only giving my love?

I think this will get more replies in Ladies Delight.

that is deep. But the thing about Forrest is that he only acted the way he did because of his naiveté. He saw the world through the eyes of a child...he was innocent, and wasn't jaded like Jenny, or a normal adult.

I think the only person that is gonna love you like Forrest loved Jenny will be your children (unless you somehow manage to fuck it up like Eminem's mom lol).

i diasgree. when i began writing this, i was mad at the person who i thought was someone who loved me without judgement which caused me to think did i really have someone in my life like that. afterwards, i realized that i did have someone like that; he is both my forest and my jenny just like i am his. my best friend, richard, is someone i can tell anything, the way i truly feel, cause he'll let me be me and i always return the favor. it's one thing for somebody to know you but a whole other situation for someone to know your heart. that's what we have and what makes our relationship so beautiful.
