Here is the plot description for “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”:

At 40 something, straight-laced Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) is living the dream: a good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart. But when Cal learns that his wife, Emily (Julianne Moore), has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his “perfect” life quickly unravels.

In today’s single world, Cal – who hasn’t dated in decades – stands out as the epitome of unsmooth. Spending his free evenings sulking alone at a local bar, the hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protégé to handsome lothario Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gosling). In an effort to help Cal get over his wife and start living his life, Jacob opens Cal’s eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style that can’t be found at Supercuts or The Gap.

But Cal and Emily aren’t the only ones looking for love in what might be all the wrong places. Cal’s 13-year-old son, Robbie (Jonah Bobo), is in love with his 17-year-old babysitter, Jessica (Analeigh Tipton), who harbors a major crush of her own… on Cal.

And even Jacob’s new-woman-every-night modus operandi is challenged when he tries his best lines on Hannah (Emma Stone): a girl he just can’t seem to get out of his mind perhaps because she’s the first woman he’s ever met who doesn’t think this professional player has any game.

The movie trailer for “Crazy, Stupid, Love.” can be watched now below.

To love and lose

I posed this question on my blog before this contest because I wanted to see how others felt. Everyone agreed with me, it’s better to love and lose than to never get hurt. You always wonder what’s wrong with you? Why haven’t you been loved? It’s something that eventually plagues everyone that’s never been in love, even the ones that pretend they don’t want to fall in love. At least if you love and lose you always have those memories and know “Once I was loved.”

It is way better to love and

It is way better to love and lose than to just not love at all for two reasons. For one you will get to experience love and if it works out thats great but if not then you are just not meant to be together. The 2nd reason being is that you can never find your soul mate by not loving anybody at all.

Crazy Stupid Love

It’s better to love then lose than to never feel love at all. I would rather be in many relationships instead of being single my whole life. You’d like to share your everyday life with that person and hope that they want to share their life with you. The feeling is indescribeable.

Is it better to love and lose or would you never love so you’re never hurt?

I believe it is better to love and lose rather than never love and never hurt. Love is such a wonderful feeling and to never feel it is such a sad thought. If you were to lose the love that’s fine because that only means that person wasnt the one for you and maybe God was giving you a taste of what’s to come but it will only be better. People assume to lose a love is this unbearable pain but it isnt. Maybe at first but after you realize you are better off and gonna get something better, everything is worth it. Believe me.

Love Is Best

It’s best to experience true love, even if it will be lost. Pain will eventually subside.

I agree with the old adage;

I agree with the old adage; it is better to have loved and lost. Heartbreak hurts, but it’s a sweet pain.

What is life without love?!

What is life without love?! No question, better to love and have to lose than never to have loved at all. Some of the spring in the step, some of the spark, some of the glow lasts forever.
