i saw this movie where a girl hires a guy to be her date at a wedding, and there was this scene where he says "i'd rather fight with you than make love to someone else", and it got me thinking... almost all romantic movies have The Scene, you know, the one where he's being really serious and dramatic and saying something that's supposed to be magical and make the female audience go awwwwwww.
they never say "i love you", it's more like the writers are always trying to come up with new ways to say i love you without actually saying it. and i think the writers put a looot of effort into it; it's almost more important than the kiss or sex scene.
