Now-a-days most of people like comedy film. I also like it. Because it keeps mind fresh and full of enjoyment. That’s why one’s relationship can be happy and more happy. Best of luck, you wrote well.
Tara,
How about “Single for Years and Can’t Make a Connection”? Maybe “Taxi Driver” isn’t the best choice for that one.
How about “She Quit Answering Your Phone Calls and Texts”? There are probably a lot of horror and thriller films that fit this description, but the reason she’s not answering usually has nothing to do with terrorists or monsters.
How about “It’s Two AM and They’re Turning the Lights On to Reveal an Empty Bar Stool Beside You… Again”? “Trees Lounge” maybe?
