There is a movie that just won the Oscar for Best Picture that has five of the most

important red flags to watch out for in dating. And even though this story is pretty crazy,

it actually perfectly shows how we can blind ourselves in relationships and get swept up

in the fantasy we hope for instead of the

reality that is right in front of us. The movie is Anora, the story of a woman living in the

Bronx who works at a strip club where she meets Vanya, the young wealthy son of a Russian oligarch

who enjoys an extravagant and lavish lifestyle beyond what a Nora or any

normal person can possibly imagine. We're talking private jet wealth. We're talking multiple

mansions in different countries wealth. We're talking solving getting bored of the color of your

yacht by buying a bigger one just for the hell of it wealth.

We're talking the kind of wealth that allows you to subscribe to your favorite YouTuber.

Oh wait, that one's free.

It's almost like everyone should do it.

Just saying.

So Anora, or Annie, as she calls herself, thinks she's hit the jackpot.

Now, there are going to be a couple of spoilers in this video, so just letting you know, fair warning.

Vanya walks into her life at the strip club where she works and takes an immediate liking to Annie because she speaks Russian.

He pays her to be his regular escort and ends up diving into a sort of

relationship with her, eventually proposing in a hedonistic weekend in Vegas. They get married,

then he whisks her back to his mansion to cozy up, play video games, have sex, and live happily ever

after for about two weeks. So, I want to dive a little bit of cozy up, play video games, have sex, and live happily ever after.

For about two weeks.
