Nothing is harder to explain than the feeling of being in love. There’s no formula. No magical path or yellow brick road. No app some avaricious nerd in Silicon Valley can create to help you work it out – though I can’t imagine that will stop them from trying.
The trouble is that it’s not something you can just explain or whittle down to a set list of factors. You’re meant to just sort of know. And if you don’t, well, you might be in a tricky situation, particularly if you’re in a long-term relationship. That’s the premise of The Life List, a new romcom from Netflix that has soared to the number one spot around the world.
