Giving someone a false hope

Because people are selfish... I've seen this kind of behavior in real life, too. A couple breaks up, maybe because of a petty fight, and one of them wants to move on to heal themselves or to show to other that they're better, and find another one, just to have someone, when they are really not truly in love. It's kind of sad.

That reason that I could think why people make false hope when from the start that person don't have a chance is that for security. I mean, they that person to cling to them until the right one comes to them or if they already found the right one for them, cause if the right one does not come yet they just let that person to cling to them to be a fallback or a second choice for them to have. I don't know if I am that negative thinker already. Have a nice day my friend.

This could happen in real life. It could be something really hurtful to all people concerned, but also, it is a test on how strong their love between them even if they have been separated for quite some time. A couple who losses each other then finds each other again must be really be destined for each other. We wouldn't know why these things have to happen, really. We do not give false hopes all the times. There are some things that happen and their relationship should be given up even if they do not want to. They hope that in doing it, everybody will be at peace. But only to find out (sometimes), that the love that they truly want is their past love. Well, I could be wrong.....

Hello tinetine161992! I guess it is better not to compare a movie in a real life situation because the two are very different unless the movie is based in a real-life story. With regards to the main topic about giving someone a false hope, there are reasons why a person has to do it and let us not judge directly. When combined with love which is a complicated thing, makes it more complicated that we have to decide who we should choose.

It's a terrible thing but sadly it does exist in real life. I think most of the false hope is not intentional. Maybe this person wants to forget his old love and finds another he likes. He might have thought that he loves this new person but realizes later on that he is not over his past love. It takes time for people to realize these things. However, there are others who do it on purpose. The new love is often called the 'rebound' guy or girl. Poor things are just used. It's a mean thing to do and I hate it when people do this to each other.

In some ways, it could not be false hope at all but perhaps a chance and try of moving on. But the fact that the past has come to the present, which could rekindle the love that was still there, it is not fair to continue on a love that you already have at present while the feelings for the past love is very strong.
