In romance movies, people kiss people they don't like in real life, hold hands with them, and sometimes even more. Isn't this actually a great injustice that actors do to people they fall in love with in real life? When you don't look at love movies from this perspective, everything seems normal. Because when we watch the movie, we feel like everything is real. But if I were an actor and I was going to act in a love movie, I would only play the love movie with my real life boyfriend because even touching someone who is not my boyfriend in real life would be very unfair to my boyfriend. It would even be a kind of deception that looks like this movie, in my opinion. Sometimes I wonder if the kissing scenes in romance movies and more are montaged, but even if they were montages, it would be a great injustice a real love. I've never met anyone who thinks like me on this subject before. Actually, I have never shared this thought with people before. Maybe my thoughts will sound strange to you, but does anyone think like me? Or if you don't agree with my thoughts, can you tell me why?
Maybe you are watching the wrong movies? In The Lovely Bones, Mr. Harvey is never shown kissing any of the girls he desires. He flirts with Susie Salmon a lot, though. He even built her an awesome clubhouse. But not once did he kiss her on screen. :)

That's why they're actors, they can imitate real life chemistry with another actor and not have it mean anything.
Actors and their spouses know this and I'm pretty sure someone wouldn't date an actor without knowing that theyre getting into this.
How you be in a movie with your boyfriend unless you both actors? and even then the director might not agree to that, but yea romance movies tend to be problematic in that sense.

I agree with you that it's weird for us but I believe the actors overlook that/push past it as part of their craft.
It's kind of like real life. Many of the potential partners we encounter in life will likely try to kiss and more with people they don't really like.
I could be true, hard to say
Ugh! You just reminded me of Bones and All... Thanks a lot. I haven't seen the film... Yet, it still lives inside my head... Can't believe people would go watch that sick trash...
