20 Movie Couples Who Actually Have Realistic Relationships

‘The human couple who adopts Sonic’

When it comes to romance, if your life is like a movie, that’s usually a bad thing. That’s because, unless something has gone seriously wrong, the day-to-day realities of long-term committed relationships don’t get much more cinematic than deciding what to have for dinner. As a result, when you’re watching a relationship play out in a movie, you’re probably not seeing a lot of your own experiences.

Marriage Story was pretty good at showing the downfall of a relationship, but I am having trouble finding more positive ones,” one Redditor told r/Movies. “When Harry Met Sally might be the closest, most natural romantic relationship I have seen on screen.” 

They then asked, “What movies display the most realistic depiction of a romantic relationship?” and all kinds of love-based realities flowed thereafter.
