He really handled it like a champ though.

For me it’s the now husband and how’s he’s trying to deal with the situation and we’re like “fuck you!” But also he’s just trying his best to not lose his wife to a guy that should be fucking dead

She was seeing the guy she ended up marrying behind Hank’s characters back before the crash. Rewatch the beginning and the end again for the subtle clues.

I think this is an interesting theory. I don't necessarily agree with it, but I like film theories. Sorry you are getting down voted.

No worries. I didn’t want to see it, but once I did, I can’t unsee it.

Wait wat?!? No way!

Edit: found this video https://youtu.be/R_m1mfu3XlY but I think it's too much of a leap. I'll believe it if the director said it.

These are huge leaps lmao. Trash video. He's just interpreting their style of acting differently.

Eh, there have been several sites and videos that tried to use the kid's age and different date/time clues to show that over the years. At the absolute worst, she "only" waited a few months before moving on, but people do weird things when they're devastated by tragedy.

Here we go... And a relationship that was born in that period would have lasted and would not self destruct?

I think its fair to say that its an open question if she was cheating on him, given his lack of availability in the relationship.

I didnt like Tom Hanks character at the cross roads choosing to follow the girl down the road to her house towards the happy ending. It wrapped up too cleanly, would have preferred to seen it more true to life with the guy devastated that he had no friends, no life, no prospects, no direction, sitting alone by himself on another kind of island.

I didn't see it as him following the girl. As I remember, he's at the cross roads and decides on that direction because of the wings on her car bumper.

No, it's her dentist. No more behind his back than a regular checkup.
