Inexperieced

Probably like 2 weeks ago, there had been a buzz about this short film "Strangers, Again". I didn't bother to watch it because I thought it was one of those yet-another-cheesy love story. I only watched it because of a friend and I guessed that maybe it is a unique film.But I guessed it wrong. Strangers, Again presented a very realistic story about the process that a couple goes through. According to the film, relationships experience 7 stages: Meeting, The Chase, Honeymoon, Comfortable, Tolerance, Downhill and Breaking Up.
After watching it, I admit I wasn't like the rest of its audience who had way long hangovers because of the film. And I know the reason why. Those people can relate to it. They saw themselves in the movie through the characters. They have undergone those 7 stages. They had a connection in story.
The things I have just mentioned are not at all me. I never saw myself in the movie. I, in even the tiniest way, cannot relate to the story. Lastly, I have not undergone those 7 stages. Don't get me wrong. I'm not sad that things roll this way. I just noticed that my lack of 'experience' have made me different from the rest of the people around me, especially my friends.
I know that time will come for me to face those 7 stages. I just have to wait.
