We've all been there; breaking up aint easy.
The good news is : The end of a relationship isn't the end. No. It's the beginning.
My last breakup line went something like this:
Him: I'll see ya around.
Me: Ye, suppose I will. (Er ... not if I see you first, said under my breath.)
I don't think that's a quote that will make it into the movies, however here are movie breakups I adore:
Bridges Of Madison County This kind of certainty comes but once in a life time.
Casablanca We'll always have Paris.
A Beautiful Mind Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart.
As Good As It Gets You make me want to be a better man.
Gone With The Wind You should be kissed, and often, and by someone who knows how.
How To Lose A Man In Ten Days "Andie: Our love fern! You let it die!" Good Will Hunting It doesn't matter if the guy is perfect or the girl is perfect, as long as they are perfect for each other.
