gonna beg people to stop referring to the rock as boring because boring isn't the same as the actual meaning here which is an emotionally unavailable, uninterested, unresponsive, soul sucking, dead weight of a partner who actively works against you both through blissful inaction
When a woman keeps solving everything alone while in a relationship, her brain stops seeing her partner as safe support and starts seeing him as dead weight once that switch flips, attraction quietly fades no matter how much history they share...
because a partner that does nothing (rock) couldn’t possibly be the problem, she sprays herself. but she didn’t transform like the stapler. she wasn’t broken. she was just in the wrong relationship.
the way this perfectly references so long london & you’re losing me, how she was constantly carrying the weight of the relationship trying to make it better and he was just there
the scene where she’s tying the red string around her trying to make it work representing the red string of fate aka the invisible string that she tried so hard to make work
“It’s me hi, I’m the problem, it’s me”
“Once I fix me, he’s gonna miss me”
“I wouldn’t marry me either”
“It’s all me, in my head, I’m the one who burned us down”
“Tell me that it's not my fault
Tell me that I'm all you want”
It’s in the music, friends.
she sprayed herself with opalite because she thought she was the one in the way of her own happiness. turns out living with an emotionally unavailable rock will fuck your perception of yourself like that
