Everything I Know About Love’s Emma Appleton Thinks It’s Time Platonic Love Was On Yr Screen

If you’re in your twenties now — or were in your twenties in the 2010s — stop what you’re doing and put on Stan’s Everything I Know About Love. It’s a testament to being an absolute mess, 2012 bangers, terrible men and mostly importantly, to friendship. And lead actor Emma Appleton

he’s kept those universal themes and universal experiences that originally connected everyone to the book in the first place,” Appleton said. 

“She’s carried those [ideas] through of female friendship and being in your twenties.

“Feeling like you should have it all together and know the answers, but actually inside just being in, you know, quiet despair. But on the outside, pretending that everything’s fine.”

“We normally see romantic relationships depicted as the main storyline in TV shows or films. The fact [is] that this is [a] platonic relationship but it’s filled with just as much love and just as much romance really as a romantic relationship,” she said.

“[There’s] the love and care that they have for each other and also the fact that you see the cracks kind of starting to appear like normal relationships do.”

“I think it is a good descriptor, and I think that is why it’s tricky when Birdy gets a boyfriend and Maggie doesn’t know what this means for their relationship,” explained Appleton. 

“I think there is this like slight co-dependency there — not in a toxic way at all, but in a way of like, they have been each other’s longest relationship up until this point. 

“They’ve built their identities and their sense of selves from each other as well. And I think they obviously hit this crossroads of going.. ‘who am I without this person, or with this person not around so much?'”

I think she gradually realises that the love and romantic relationships needs to be as fulfilling and as generous and as accepting as the love that she has in all those other relationships in her life,” she said. 

“I’d like to think there’s part of her that gets the point where she understands that she has to let go a bit to, you know, keep her best friend in her life basically.”

I’ve got such a fondness for that time. I remember it really clearly… and I think a lot of that is down to the fashion,” Emma Appleton explained.
She particularly highlighted putting on a pair of American Apparel disco pants. That jumpsuit really goes on a journey,” she said.Everything I Know About Lovestreaming only on Stan
