9 Problems With Rom-Coms That No One Wants To Admit

8. They Make You Binge Eat

Whilst this can be said about any movie, you probably eat more rubbish when you're watching a Rom Com. They're designed to make you feel comfortable and hopeful, and usually when you're in love, some of you will find that you put weight on because you're so comfortable with your other half. They'll tell you that they love you body no matter what your size, and all of a sudden, going to the gym just seems like a total waste of time when you could be cuddled up together on the sofa eating pizza and cake. And then you have the girls' night in. This is when your squad comes over to watch a movie and talk about boys and although there's always one person in the group who brings the face masks and the wine, there's always someone who brings the nibbles. And by nibbles, it's more of an all you can eat buffet. At the end of the movie, you're all impressed and horrified at the amount of food that you've managed to eat.
