What’s the Dear John movie about?
John Tyree (Channing Tatum from Step Up and The Eagle), an American Special Forces soldier, takes advantage of a leave in the USA to see his father and go surfing. Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried from Solstice and Mamma Mia!) is a student and they meet by chance on the beach. It's love at first sight between them, and although they belong to two different worlds, an absolute passion brings them together for two weeks. But John has to leave again and, following the September 11 attacks, he is sent to Afghanistan. As for Savannah, she must return to the University. For several months, John and Savannah write heated letters to each other. Savannah, more and more worried about the safety of her beloved, questions herself. As desires and responsibilities become more and more opposed, the couple struggles to maintain their commitments. Then, at the worst possible moment, John receives a letter of rupture without any other explanation. He is destroyed and does not understand what is happening to him. When he returns to America for his father's funeral, he sees Savannah again. This one got married. The young girl has not given in to a whim or to her family's orders: if, in John's absence, she has chosen to marry Tim (Henry Thomas from E.T.), whom she has known since childhood, it is because he is suffering from cancer and someone has to take care of his son Alan, an endearing child who is also autistic. Even though the end credits come before the denouement, we understand that after Tim's death, John and Savannah will be able to love each other and raise Alan together, respecting the memory of his father.

“You think it was hard for you out there?” While he’s literally at war... lol
women love to make it about them, about how hard it is for them, no matter what. He could have been sitting there with no arms and legs and she would have been like " I COULDNT, IT WAS TOO HARD FOR ME, CANT YOU SEE THAT???:((
Being without the person you love is hard . How do you not comprehend her showing him that is how much she cares . Lol
@@jesuschristislord6790 shut up
I grew up in a war and I live in a “peaceful” society now. It’s not much different 🙃
It’s not easy for the loved ones back at home (not the same). But usually it’s because of how worried they are not because their life sucked without them for a not that big of a length of time.
She could've helped sick Tim and his son without actually having to marry him. It's important to have clear, good boundaries for life... Whoever said you needed to marry a sick person in order to help them? Draw the line. Help them but protect your own as well ❤️
@Miss Manawaka People don’t always get married for love, that’s actually extremely naive. For a lot of people, it is merely a transaction, a contract. For some, it’s for financial security, for others it’s comfort or company and in this case Tim needed around the clock help for himself and his autistic son. Legally it helped and once he died, he knew she would never leave his son alone. On top of that, in terms of finance, living together & her reputation in a small town, not to mention being an actual mother to a child who already has trouble adjusting to the world. It was actually pretty noble of her to even offer to sacrifice her happiness and put a dying man and autistic child before herself. The fact that you guys are even having this debate proves that.
@Miss Manawaka The character in the book and the movie very clearly state that they felt they did the right thing for the Tim and his son & even Tim told John that she sacrificed her happiness & love for him to do so because she has always had a big heart and she didn’t want to leave them without any support, they were essentially alone at the end of the day & required substantial aid and time, so yes it was a noble deed. I can’t even imagine how draining and isolating it must have been for her, but she chose to be a mother to a boy whose own mother abandoned him and essentially a nurse to a dying man whose wife abandoned him. It’s strange that people don’t see how selfless she was here.
However I do apologize if I unknowingly insulted or offended you as that was never my intention, I was merely trying to explain the character’s arc.
I agree
@@taraz6786 you do know you can help ppl without having to marry them right? selfless? imagine how that dude feels receiving a letter saying thanks but no thanks being thousands of miles away fighting for his life. this movie makes no sense...
@@zuadao She could have helped him temporarily sure, but not permanently and around the clock the way Tim and his child needed. She had to sacrifice in order to be there full time, in order to be a mother and a full time nurse/partner.
I was in the Navy and after talking to many friends I realized that a lot of couples that split due to the hardships of the military life never full realized that just the absence of the other’s presence is enough to start the rift. The moment they stopped growing together, they started growing apart.
If the military wanted you to have a wife or girlfriend they would've issued you one🤷🏾♂️
@@mav40420 will never forget this comment as long as I live
@@mav40420 ain't that the goddamn truth
LOL that is pretty obvious..
Im in the navy right now. Although I don’t have a partner. But I’ve seen a lot of people who does and swing to some other coz they’re away. I guess it happens on both ends. The ones waiting back home too. Its the sad reality of life. Truth is, nothing is permanent, eventually we will be apart
Let’s be real here. They spent more time apart then they ever did together. They lived separate lives most of the time and had this huge romantic idea of each other. They knew the minute he committed to more time they wouldn’t see each other. Life happens
thnx u.
Yes, in the book she and Tim were best friends and went to collage together, so she fall for Tim eventually and leave john. which makes perfect sense than been in love with john forever and marry and old dude.
I literally spent 42 days in person with my fiancé before I moved in with him when he got out of the military! That is not a valid excuse!

@@smail8002 is that “by Toby” really necessary?!? Lmaoo
@@apolonioman5479 gotta give the man the credit haha
She didn’t cheat. She told him she was getting married and then got married, it’s not like she fell in love with Tim. Don’t get me wrong, it was a shitty way to break up with someone but it’s not cheating.
Incorrect, she had 2 choices, get married or not get married , she picked the wrong choice.
Her relationship with Tim is creepy. He was friends with her parents. And said in the beginning he saw her like a daughter.
I guess he was on 'sweet home Alabama' mode.
It's true that's why I don't really feel bad for him. Like he just wanted someone to care for Alan and used a young girl who felt bad for him.
I read the book but in there tim was her friend and he was young
@@luna8327 and I’m the book Allan was his brother as well I believe right?
Same feeling I had when I read the book
I can't believe Amanda Seyfried hasn't won an Oscar. She's such an incredible actress.
RIGHT?!!
Well there’s probably a 30% chance she already does. 😂 jk
She is an Oscar nominee though for her performance in David Fincher’s Mank. I remember she was the frontrunner for the 2021 Oscars but eventually lost out to the grandma in Minari. She’ll def have an Oscar one day, she just won an Emmy last award season and swept pretty much all the awards for her limited series The Dropout
🤡🤡🤡
She just cries all the time and makes big sad eyes.
This is giving me the “Why did you sleep with her? I was alone and she was right there and I missed you.” vibes.
what is this from?
?
@@adilevy64 Her logic and explanation is bad. She married some other guy and left him cold and this is her explanation lol. That she needed to "help him". The man was at war and didn't even know why she did what she did because she didn't even tell him and now she is playing the victim and preaching how hard her life was even though the man had gone trough the same shit emotionally but in a WARZONE.

oh to this day this movie makes me so angry, she could’ve clearly helped that guy without marrying him
No she couldn’t, in terms of financial help and Alan needing someone there full time to be his mother and also because of his autism, it was the expedient way.
@@taraz6786 girl no she didn’t need to marry him and she’s not obligated to be Allan’s mom , she could’ve been his guardian
@@1pixxiy He needed a mother, not a guardian and she loved him and so she did that for him at the expense of herself. Real love is sacrifice and she truly loved Alan and even Tim in a way, but more in the sense of family. He’s been there her whole life and so she felt like she owed him for taking care of her too.
@@taraz6786 bro it’s not even her problem if he needed a mother😭 and bro she doesn’t need to be his mother if she really did care for him? plus that tim guy is just weird.. he said she was like a daughter to him and ended up falling in love with her.. u don’t see nothing weird there 💀
@@taraz6786 and wtf u don’t owe marriage to anyone tf is wrong with you
"I saved every single one of your letters."
"I burned yours."
At this point we need a dear john 2...... Because i didn't get no closure 😭😭😭😭😭
She's over there playing the victim: "you think every day wasn't a marathon for me without you?"
Does that not go double for him? If the distance was gonna be that difficult, why didn't she break up with him before he left?
Selfish girl.
Exactly.
My god I hated Savannah so much. I'm glad so many people agree because I read this book as a teenager and even then I couldn't tolerate her self-righteous ass. I don't know if she was a projection of someone or something, but she was written to be easily despised.
F
Man he was gone for the same time, he was without his love just like her and he was also on fucking war, losing mates, getting shot and so one.. I would honestly just stand up, punch her in the face and leave without a word maybe expect saying: "Bitch."
@@TheRumCZ Why would you punch a woman under any circumstances? Man on woman violence is NEVER acceptable! This is just a fucking movie for christ's sakes!

why didn’t you call me back? and i’ll be like ..why are you so obsessed with me? -regina george

yeah that song plays in my head when i watch this
I will watch this again fareal I will find time and sit back to watch this
She got that song and dear John from this movie.
@@shindanu no lmao “dear john” is about the singer john mayer that she dated for a while

"Why didn't you write to me?" The line from Notebook, and a better love story.
I just commented that right now...before i scrolled to see if anyone else noticed the similarities of the 2 lines by movies made by the same producer lol

who let him walk out of costuming with that upside-down sergeant rank?
First thing I noticed. Stupid
Certain laws don’t allow for people to wear the actual uniform. Something as small as just flipping the patch makes it legal.
@@BadgunmusicII funny enough, a 1SG told me this before (for a particularly colorful reason), so you aren't the first person I've heard make that claim, but that's actually not true. Stolen Valor laws do exist, but they don't apply to actors or even regular schmoes walking around in broad daylight, pretending to be medal of honor winners. He'd have to be committing fraud (or some other crime where the uniform played a role) for those laws to apply.
@@BadgunmusicII that's odd. That'll make people point out the mistake and call it stupidity like in this case. 🤣😂
First fucking thing dude how did he pass the board looking so dicked up?
This story is about a girl who got bored while waiting for her boyfriend.
Yes its just wasted my time.
@@randommm7768 didn't you read the book before? Even though married another guy she still love John read the book to make it clear
@@DerekMcAdam2023 you shouldn't have to read a book to know. The movie should be able to provide all the context needed and if it doesnt that's a failure on the movies part.
@@the_spotted_quacker The movie is total crap compared to the Book. doesn't even have the same ending xD
@@the_spotted_quacker i think the book is brutal about love and not a happy ending, and the director wanted a happy ending thats why she marry Tim for pitty and not for love.
I can see where she is coming from, yes she’s still in the wrong… but I do understand how hard it was for her to wait for him. Remember it’s not like he was across the country just sitting on the beach, he was at WAR. That’s scary asf. Thinking is he coming home or not, is he alive. And that sudden urge to see him but you can’t, and then the letters that were probably sent months after another. So I get how hard it might’ve been for her, but dude stayed and he loved you and through everything, he deserved a call or a letter written back to at least talk about it. And he’s at war. He’s dealing with enough but he stayed for you because he loves you. I can see why people are mad, because it does seem like she’s gaslighting him. But I can see her side even if she’s in the wrong I can still see why it was hard for her.
Thank you. I never understood her back then. I think I'm more sympathetic now 🤷🏻♀️. Life ... will teach you the lesson you look down on 😂
Only whores cheat
He's a simp. Plain and simple. She wasn't even willing to be loyal and true while he was away fighting in a war. What makes John think that she will be loyal and true in peace time on the home front? She's for the streets.
Fuel ain't my rifampin
Trying to justify marrying another dude while boyfriend's away must be hard...so stop trying...everyone understand how cheaters operates...your understanding of them don't justify their actions.
Every word that came out of her mouth was absolute, pure garbage.
-Deflecting
-Blaming
-Self victimizing
-rationalizing her terrible behavior
-contradicting her own statements
-manipulation by crying
-going into hysterics over being calmly asked to provide a Non-BS answer
Pure and simple, she took absolutely ZERO accountability for her actions.
If anything, my mannz dodged a huge bullet when she left his life. What a train wreck of a girl.
Women cry a lot about how men dont validate their feelings. All the dude wanted was for her to validate his feelings and acknowledge she was the cause of his heartbreak so he could get closure. She couldnt even give him that much. Instead, she poured salt in the wound by blaming him and making herself out to be the victim.
Tim is the real villain in this story
I totally agreed, as I said, he was a manipulative bastard.
Na Savannah the ho is the real villain let’s be honest
@@SouthJerzVillains she’s not a hoe for helping a dying man with his autistic son… lol are you ok?
@@xxxmochibaby
'Helping'? 😂
@@swat1710 yes helping did you even watch the movie?
This girl was trifling. How are you going to send your boyfriend off to war? Then, Mary the guy that he was jealous of you being with? She made it sound like she was forced to marry that dude. It’s like, sis, nobody told you to marry him. You could have helped out with the son and his dad without having to marry him. Like I said in the beginning, she was trifling.
Savanah had a big heart and John knew it to the very first time they met. People should read the book to understand this clearly. Both her parents died while John was away and it was Tim who was with her the whole time. They were there for each other. She did not cheat or anything like that as some comments say. She slowly fell in love with Tim which explains her letters becoming lesser as time went by. She told John all this in her letters. They loved each other clearly but life happens and it steers us away into unexpected directions. Also at the end of the book, John wanted to know if she still loves him so he went to see for the last time if she ever went out to watch the full moon like they used to, as a symbolic way of saying they love and think of each other, and she went outside to watch the full moon. And it was enough for John to know she loves him still.
She is not the villain here. Nobody is. Thats how good this story is. Nobody's a villain. It's just that life happens.
@@fourreading4131 bullshit

She had good intentions about helpping her friend with his child but why did she married him? it is inevitable to side with John, she was too selfish
How is it selfish to sacrifice your own happiness and marry a dying man you don’t love in order to take care of him in his final days and to be a mother to his autistic child who would be alone in the world once his father dies. 🤔
@@taraz6786 Thats just BS and you know it
@@jamesbond2789 Nope it’s literally what happened. 🤦🏼♀️
@@taraz6786 The selfish part is cheating and marrying Tim. She didn't have to do that, the main reason she did it was because she felt lonely and impatient. Those are selfish qualities.
@@harry-cj6wu Nope. She could have done countless other things to stave off being impatient and lonely. She was a rich, white & beautiful woman, she could have had her pick of anyone, it’s not like men weren’t vying for her attention, hell she could have just lived life free of any obligations & gone traveling or something. The point is, she had innumerable paths to walk down and yet chose to be tied down to a terminally ill patient who has no family and cannot afford round the clock care and an autistic child who undoubtedly requires a lot more attention and time, after his own mother abandoned him. The life she chose is difficult and draining and she could have had an easy life, so her actions actually take character and heart. She saw Tim deteriorating and decided to do the right thing because her conscience guided her to it, not all of us can say we would be that selfless.
She’s so beautiful
I need to rewatch ,I don't remember it all like this.
Love this movie!!!💖
My favorite me2 ❤
"You think it was tough out there?" Woman, he was literally at war, busy getting shot at and trying not to get blown up. And he had to live without her too. I'm a woman myself and I understand that sometimes you can't help how you feel. Feelings fade with time and distance. It's unfair but that's how it is. Instead, she makes it about her, blaming him for not understanding and shit. She gets no sympathy from me the moment she started gaslighting him
Preach ma'am. She didn't even say a single thing about his suffering. He goes through the same shit and on top of that a heartbreak without an explanation and she left him for someone else while despite his hardship he stayed loyal to her.
Never be afraid to try and find love
Be happy that you gave it a shot

Now I wanna watch this movie again
.I love keep coming to these scenes of Dear Jhon❤️❤️❤️❤️
She sounds like she made excuses for why she left him, yet again the breakup was foreshadowed. Great movie
I love this movie so much,john loves her but did the right thing moving away from savannah,because it's really hard to forget even if you forgive,it's keeps on coming back...😆still trying my best to ignore the past
I cried on this movie
This is very much like my ex when I did my four years with the marines. She cheats on me and plays the victim. But in my case, she puts out false word that I was the toxic one. Shit ain’t fair but that was 7 years ago. I’ve never put any effort to clear my name. I just deleted my Facebook and moved on. Out of my whole high school graduation class of 2011, I hang out with only one friend on a weekly basis like he’s my brother because he took the initiative to hear my side of the story. No one else.
Hey man sorry to hear that, your friend is a keeper. Hope youre doing well
Thank you for your service, Sir.
Very sorry to hear that. You deserve better
Thanks for your Service Sir 🙏
🥺
Actually she cheated on him ...
Ending was shit as they ended up together Which her character doesn't deserve.
Movie teaches us true love doesn't exist in long distance relationship.
yeah.. her friend was sick, so what... they had to get married so she could help (?)... some bullshit right there.
Lol same with The Notebook… she cheats on her man because her “the one” came back. These stories are a poor excuse.
So many of Nicholas Sparks's novels glorify infidelity....it was seen in Notebook, Dear John, The choice...it's all brushed aside for romantic escapism and melodrama. The person is never held accountable for their actions. His books are actually misery porn and nothing else.
@@something.something189 Choice was worst movie i have ever watch
Has anyone thought about rewriting this movie if Savannah actually had waited for John?
i love this movie soo much. just likenthe vow
This scene destroys me everytime 💔😭
Me too seeing his rank upside down really really upsets me
Very good story. Inspiring. May Gid bless your love?
If you look closely you’ll see the rank on his shoulder boards goes from upside down to right side up. Just thought I’d throw that out there
lmao!
Amanda Seyfried's acting is great in this scene though.
Yea...I don't feel sorry for you, you had no choice but to have an affair? My husband was deployed both when we were dating and after we got married -it's really hard but if you love someone you just have to choose to turn a blind eye to other men/women.
Err she didn’t have an affair, you clearly haven’t watched the movie
We will never know the truth, but I hope what u say is real
she didn’t have an affair. she married the guy legally to have custody of the son and to take care of him but the marriage was in name only not physical/romantic
Siempre voy a decir que Savanna se equivocó al casarse con Tim. Ella dijo que 'no tenía opción'; pero hay muchas formas de ayudar a una persona enferma y apoyarla sin que sea necesario un matrimonio.
Ella no lo amaba, y aún así se casó.
Jhon se merecía algo mejor, algo mucho mejor.
Él jamás le hubiera hecho lo mismo a ella si hubiese sido al revés.
Esperaba mucho más de ella, la verdad.
The shoulder boards are backwards and it’s mind numbing!
Came here to say this. My brain melted just at the thumbnail.
He is legally aren’t allowed to wear them correctly. Flipping them makes it legal
I’d regret it forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️
They have no idea what the one waiting is going thru? It's a war within and being alone for long amounts of time really stinks!!!
Life goes on!!!
Ya I know that feeling
I wud never walk that path again. What’s done is done
I really think my whole family set me up to lose the best thing that ever happened to me
With that attitude yes. You always have a choice for your own actions and destiny, own them and you’ll have control over your life
Girl, you had a choice
She couldn't just help the guy and not marry him while her boyfriend was trying to live another day while at war. Oh yeah, that was really hard for her!
I don't think she has ever been more beautiful than in this movie. Tatum did a good job too. She is so naturally beautiful reminds me of my ex wife.
She: “I had no choice”
Audience: (……!?)
I remember back in high school, was trying to join the military and my buddy was talking about joining up too. He tells the girl he was with about wanting to join but she says I may not stay loyal. Thinking back, I don’t think he was serious about it, the girls we were going after just weren’t shit, and honestly fuck those years. Gives me a good laugh though thinking about that stuff
Lmao well hey at least she was honest about it. Better that way than not telling him and cheating anyway.
His rank is on BACKWARDS at the beginning, then corrected at the end LOL
There is always a Jody.
Ｅｓｓｅｎｃｅ🌹 - you never called.
She broke him in pieces 💔
When I first watched this movie I hated her for this..when I watched it years later I understood.
Not saying I would do this. Just saying for her character it makes sense. She came across wise but she was a very scared person. She had a lot of beauty in her, one thing was being kind to a fault.
Her kindness and empathy and needing to help him with his autistic son, consumed her as she was filled with emptiness john being gone.
She did the right thing because when he died she got custody of his kid who would have needed a lifetime of help.
It also forced her to become aware of herself as a person. If she would have stayed with john the entire time I don’t know if their relationship would have lasted.
I haven't watched the movie again but reading your realization made me understood their situation.
Excellent point. I do think them staying apart and going through personal battles helped their relationship. I haven’t watched the movie but it seems they will get together as a strong couple.
I wish I could just call him right now to hear his voice. Better yet I wish he’d just call me. We could just be ourselves and everything would be ok
She came a long way from mean girls
For real.
❤❤good
Why did you not call me about my cars 🚗 extended warranty 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😍😍😘lovely
When he went back he had the choice to reenlist for another term or to return home he chose to because he was doing it for his country I understand that but when your time is up go home be with the ones you love you only get true love once in your life so don't let it fade away

This girl crazy
She had a choice
She didn't need to marry Tim at all. John was amazing guy for her and I feel like if she really truly loved him she would have waited until he finished serving in the military.
Upside down rank is hilarious
This part really grinded my gears because at first the way he wore that uniform it was correct. But at this scene when you look at the rank on his shoulder, it’s clearly upside down🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
It’s funny because at 2:31 it’s wrong and then the camera angle changes and it’s back to normal
Who cares lmao
This wasn't a scene in the novel. They have a calm reheated dinner with wine. She explains slowly falling in love with Tim as he comforts her during the deployments, after his parents' fatal car crash, and helping him take care of his brother (Alan). She does mention that John reupping and not being able to see her for his 3rd leave (when he took care of his dad after the first heart attack), did them in. Tim and John love Savannah more than she ever loved either of them. They made ultimate sacrifices for her. Tim was her best friend, always giving her hope that John would come back alive and it would all work out. Tim even told John to make her happy when he is gone (also asking for Alan to be taken care of). John responded by saying goodbye to her and selling his dad's coin collection to save Savannah's husband. The experimental drugs work on Tim and he is back home with Savannah. She didn't wait for John during his service and she was willing to betray Tim as he was sick in bed. Even begging to still be a part of John's life by maintaining contact, knowing full well they can't actually be friends.
Both the prologue and epilogue tell the story of true love. They are the same scene of John staring off in the distance at Savannah after the good deed. It's fascinating. Savannah, after all those years, even being married, still looked up at the full moon to remember her only weeks with John. That is saying everything about her. She only thought of herself, her own joy. John, on the contrary, finally learned to do the right thing and be honorable.
The movie cheapens the story of sacrifice so much that it's not worth it. After reading the book, I realized how bad it really was. Prioritize reading Dear John instead. A Walk to Remember and The Notebook are far superior in film. Both stories remain truer to the original content and the sacrifice is still told through the screenplay. Here it's so missed that there is no food for thought. A little about death and illness, but not much mote than that.
I once had a love like this. But it was a betrayed love and I walk away.
good for you
Lmao how she makes it about her
She doesn’t. She did it to help Tim and Alan, it was the only way to keep an autistic kid like Alan out of the system because he wouldn’t have survived it, not to mention be a mother to him while his own mother abandoned him. She also helped Tim all the way through to his death.
“You thought it was tough out there”… dude literally got shot twice 😂
Tim is/was a manipulative bastard with his "pity me, I'm sick, I need your help, and your help and to take care of my son, and by the way, brake up with your boyfriend, let's get engaged (I'll give a big hunk of a diamond engagement ring". Tim also put in place the fact that Savannah would take care of Allan the rest of her life. And he says "he loves her" is that what you do to a young woman who has plans for her life? then he tells John that he is sorry. What a jerk.
Bro had his ranks on upside down
Awe 2:09 he understands and gives her a hug
Thats the hallmark of a real man. Someone who can muster the strength to be gentle and selfless, even in the face of unspeakable pain.
Dear John:
-My name is JEFF
She loved John but him being away from her and at war was too hard for her to handle so she married the other guy, as an escape. Seems irrational, and it was, but she was confused. She didn't know what she was doing, like she said. It's almost like she got caught in a current and wasn't strong enough to fight back. Not saying she acted to right way but circumstances just got the better of her.
This movie will forever infuriate me. As a vet, I saw this happen to too many people.
Anyone else notice his rank is upside down in the first half of the video 😂
It’s like I have ESPN or something
I’m pretty sure she called him “my precious.”
His response should: My name is Jeff…
Permission to have this on my talent night please 🙏✨
Dear John >The Notebook.
Great movie but it makes me REALLY mad every single time. And Amanda is Hard to get mad at but this movie DOES IT.
She was not alone.. She was with Tim they were together, working on something.. Not him he was alone.. He was literally alone cuz she had already betrayed him
I read the book 📖 😃 🙂
I did too and it was sooooooo different with how she ended up with Tim. I don't remember alan being in the movie but in the book only
Me too. And, watch the movie. I remember when my sister watch the movie and how angry she was at this scene.
That rank is upside down man! I had that rank in the army.
I saw that years back too. Thank you for your service!
Because you havent lap dance me!
lol!!
Amanda Seyfried is glorious
Yeah but not that Savannah Curtis 😂
Funny how if a guy cheats in a film he's portrayed as a fickle pig who deservers everything he gets. But if a woman cheats its only because the guy 'forced her to' and its up to him to go to the cheater to ask for her to take him back.
In my opinion both cheaters are filthy pigs. Man or woman, and deserve to be regarded as a pile of crap.
That’s hardly true. We’re mostly shown men cheating and it’s normalized, sometime even comedic because the ‘woman’ either bored them or drove them to it in a different manner. The disparity is extremely clear.
Savanah had a big heart and John knew it to the very first time they met. People should read the book to understand this clearly. Both her parents died while John was away and it was Tim who was with her the whole time. They were there for each other. She did not cheat or anything like that as some comments say. She slowly fell in love with Tim which explains her letters becoming lesser as time went by. She told John all this in her letters. They loved each other clearly but life happens and it steers us away into unexpected directions. Also at the end of the book, John wanted to know if she still loves him so he went to see for the last time if she ever went out to watch the full moon like they used to, as a symbolic way of saying they love and think of each other, and she went outside to watch the full moon. And it was enough for John to know she loves him still.
She is not the villain here. Nobody is. Thats how good this story is. Nobody's a villain. It's just that life happens.

After watching it again, I think Savannah ended their relationship because she felt abandoned and not needed by John. Thats why it was easy for her to choose to move on and marry Tim who was sick. And John didn't assure her of their future together.
I think her biggest mistake was her underestimating their feelings with each other.
