true love is a process, not an event

I saw this movie before, but I forgot, but I remember the plot very clearly. Now I watch it again, and I still like it very much. The heroine's voice and dress are just like Hepburn in her favorite movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's". , cute and sexy. I have always felt that only those who are generous and brave will take the initiative to fall in love with others, because they are not afraid of giving or being hurt. And oftentimes, like Peter in the film, we like to imagine a perfect standard in our minds, and then use this standard to test all the people we meet, whether they meet or not, whether they meet or not, just like this One is labeled and then rejected outside the atrium. To borrow the heroine's words from the film "true love is a decision , a decision to take a chance with somebody,to give it to somebody without worrying whether they wil give anything , or they are gonna hurt you,or if thet are really the one. Maybe love isn't something that happens to you , maybe something you have to choose." True love is to be found, only to be found after experiencing it.
