    This is amazing. He was so depressed when he couldn't climb up. She felt bad and cheered him up.
    This has no right being more romantic than 90% of romance films.

      Why feel bad when the whole world has gone crazy long time ago? Originally we should live like these bears too) But they have a lot of trouble too: like finding food. Anyways, they'll soon die out as well as the rest of us)

    It's exactly like in the humans. Guy asks the girl out but she instead of saying yes or a no decides to play mind games with him so that he chases her. But when she overdoes it the guy loses interest in her. The moment he is not showing any interest in her she starts chasing him.
