: While your opinion is your own, and arguing opinions is virtually pointless (that being said, here's my argument to your opinion, heh), I think you're overestimating the willingess of people to just "get over" something.
+++++++++++You're right about arguing matters of opinion/taste, but as long as its civil I usually enjoy it!
You have three people, two relationships, the common point of which is Holden.

: I realize I'm chewing up a lot of post by recapping the plot, but my point is his sollution to his percieved problems (which are his own doing, almost completely) is to further alienate those people. I find it to be really true to life, in a general sense of emotion and how people behave.
++++++++++++++++++Very nicely put. I'll have to chew on that a little. I suppose because I've had similar experiences in my personal life (sort of...well tangentially...well it wasn't a lesbian and I didn't offer my hieney to anyone....oh screw it) I let my idealism overshadow the "realism" of the situation.
Thanks for your insight, I already feel better about Chasing Amy.
