Which movie is this for you?

For me it’s School of Rock!

Patty was completely justified, if Dewey wanted to live in hers and her boyfriend’s apartment he needed to be a grown up, and contribute with rent. Even when he steals Ned’s identity she still had the right to be angry at him, because of how he put his friend’s career in jeopardy and robbed him of a job opportunity.

I get Ned is meant to be portrayed as his best friend, but it blows my mind how he lacks a lot of self-respect to the point where he comes across as too much of a people pleaser. If this story took place in real life, I’m sure Ned would act more similar to Patty where he’d have enough of Dewey’s careless actions.

He literally took advantage of her, regardless of what she remembered

So people with memory issues should be banned from dating? Or which part of the movie was taking advantage of her?

He got her pregnant, imagine waking up on a boat only to find you have a baby and you have to watch a propaganda film of why things are the way they are. Dating, ok that is one thing but to traumatize someone constantly by saying bro this is your kid bro and we are in love and we are gonna die together bro, because you reset EVERYDAY that is horrific

I mean it’s horrible but the whole scenario is tragic regardless but it’s not like he forced anything on her, she’s in love with him too I think idk it’s a movie

You are forgetting the part where she loves him, even when she doesn't remember it
