Some of the best lessons I've learned about love didn't come from romance movies. They came from an ogre who didn't believe he deserved to be loved. A man who could fast-forward through his entire life. A woman who woke up every morning without remembering the man who loved her. And a man who had everything he wanted, only to realize that loving someone sometimes means wanting what's best for them, even when it doesn't include you. In this episode of the Lost Loverboy Podcast, I'm revisiting some of my favorite movies and unpacking the love lessons I didn't fully understand when I first watched them. We talk about Shrek, Click, 50 First Dates, Bruce Almighty, and the moments that hit completely differently once you've actually experienced love, heartbreak, sacrifice, fatherhood, and growing up.
