?are you better to have a broken heart and live alone than be in a bad relationship?

A sure cure for a broken heart is to realize that you were in a bad relationship. People are left with broken hearts when they retain the illusion that the relationship was good and could have worked. Once the woman realizes the relationship is bad and would never have worked, her heart will start to heal and she can look for someone else, someone with whom she can build a life together.

In other words, I don't think the question is valid. Maybe the question you are looking for is: At what point do you end a bad relationship and move on?

 

 

@dpg I know I am in the minority. But I want people to question how I will tell the story not what the story is. ?If in a contest situation or when a producer is on a search and they are reading a few hundred loglines. I believe that an incomplete story will be looked over, maybe not intentionally, but it will not engage as much as a fully formed story. ?Like I said, just my opinion. Only here are loglines read in isolation.

@Richiev, I know it would drag in the reader. But I don't know what he has done yet. That may make her more panicked at some point. The story is that she is sees that her life will be better leaving him, but she continues. ?Around the midpoint she becomes aware that her faith in him is unjustified. So she start trying to get out of the situation she is in. ?At the final minutes she thinks he may have redeemed himself, but he hasn't. He is still willing to disappoint her. ?The question the story answers is ?are you better to have a broken heart and live alone than be in a bad relationship?.

What is the "Situation of his making" in which the lead character must saver her boyfriend from, because that is the inciting incident and the logline should begin with that.

When her loser boyfriend loses a million dollars of mob money...

When her loser boyfriend attacks a police officer and goes on the run...

When her loser boyfriend grows a man bun...

What specifically is the situation the lead character must save her loser boyfriend from.
