The (500) Days of Summer attitude of “he wants you so bad” seems attractive to some women and men, especially younger ones, but I would encourage anyone who has a crush on my character to watch it again and examine how selfish he is. He develops a mildly delusional obsession over a girl onto whom he projects all these fantasies. He thinks she’ll give his life meaning because he doesn’t care about much else going on in his life. A lot of boys and girls think their lives will have meaning if they find a partner who wants nothing else in life but them. That’s not healthy. That’s falling in love with the idea of a person, not the actual person.

Inseparable in life and death: Couple married for 73 years, then died just 48 hours apart
His name was John Jacob Kramer, but Moll, whose full name was Molly Rusonick, called him JJ for short. JJ was a part-time milkman, back when there was such a thing, paying his way through the University of Toronto’s pharmacy program in the 1930s by delivering fresh bottles of the good stuff to cottages around Lake Simcoe, about an hour northeast of Toronto.

His favourite summer destination was Bell Ewart, a quaint little crossroads where JJ would invariably dawdle on his daily route in the hopes that Moll’s mother might invite him inside for some cake and cookies and conversation with her daughter.
