Katrina asked this question about Call Me by Your Name:
Why did Oliver get married? Wasn't he still in love with Elio?

As for love, I think the story is a little too dramatic, I guess. I don't think that was love in the first place, but it was just some nights of sex and some old memories of them which Elio wouldn't let go, with which Oliver was just trying to play along.
Elio loved the man twenty years ago. And this Oliver isn't that same old Oliver any longer. I guess Elio would have ruined all the memories if he let Oliver come back to his life.(less)
