13 Going on 30


There is a reason why I love this movie. And it's not just the insanely gorgeous Jen Garner and Mark Ruffalo. It's because this movie showed me how you can have everything you've ever wanted and still not be happy because you don't have that one right person in your life. Jenna loved Matt, and he loved her more. Jenna got everything she ever wanted, but she also found out that she lost her way somewhere along the way, she don't know which wrong turn she took and when. And she also didn't have Matty in her life. She finally tells him how much she loves him, he tells her he has always loved her. But all this happens on the day of his wedding and Jenna can't do anything but wish that things had been different. And her wish is granted; she wakes up 13 again and kisses Matt and when they are 30 they are married- thanks to the Wishing Dust.
But real life doesn't have Wishing Dust. I can go tell him I love him and maybe he'll also tell me he loves me, but he'll still get married to her and they'll, hopefully, live happily ever after. And I'll wistfully wish for Wishing Dust. And even though I'll never feel the things that he showed me I could feel, I might meet someone else, that person won't be the Matt to my Jenna, but yeah...
