Rose-tinted glasses
Sandrine was the woman of Marcel’s dreams. The village didn’t support him, but he wanted to stay with her. They decided to stay together as a couple and things were going well. Nobody could force them to break up, right? Marcel felt that something wasn’t right but his love for her overcame his worries and the opinions of the villagers.
The villagers all thought that Marcel would see it himself at some point. That never happened. He was looking through rose-tinted glasses. And on top of that: it was all going well, right? Sandrine and Marcel spent lots of time together and he got more and more attached to her. He was deeply in love and knew that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Sandrine.
