It’s a reference from The Matrix

No, Alice in wonderland I think. The one menacingly pointing at the clock that’s like a stock image. Sorry I didn’t think of the matrix, didn’t realize it reads ambiguously

Refers to an image that’s used as like, a memento mori for relationships. A warning that no matter how perfect your relationship seems, no matter what you do to maintain it, or how much she loves(?) you back, you can’t truly know or control how long you have left or how long her affections last. And when the time runs out, she’ll change her mind. Whether for any reason, no reason, or one you’ll never know (Yes it just happened to me and yes it sucks royally)

Is it? I always assumed longevity had something to do with how the relationship was going (hence the old practice of putting effort into them). I know that used to be possible (though not a given); ik ppl whov been married for decades. If id known they come with expiration dates, I wouldn’t have bothered, wouldn’t have gotten invested, and wouldn’t feel so lousy (hence the heads up) I just feel like people who can just stop being in love overnight, on a whim, just shouldn’t get in relationships
