It's this emotional gap that is rarely featured in pop culture movies/tv[usually you are supposed to laugh at the guy who gets hit in the junk with a football/you are supposed to cry when someone finds out they have cancer.] Too bad the crying isn't very convincing. I guess you wouldn't get maniacally distraught just because Las Vegas doesn't have a pro baseball team, but if I has gone through my whole life believing in something like true love, and then found out it didn't exist, I think that would merit more than a few odd sobs.
