An autistic woman had expressed her anxiety that her favourite film might not end the same way every time she watches it, it has been claimed.
Paige Thomas, 39, knows When Harry Met Sally off by heart, but still worries every time Harry gets weird with Sally after they sleep together.
She said: “What if this time he doesn’t love that she gets cold when it’s 71 degrees out? What if it pisses him off that it takes her an hour and a half to order a sandwich? What if he doesn’t realise he wants to spend the rest of his life with her?”
“And what if he does love all those things but she rejects him anyway?” Harrow continued. “He really hurt her.”
“I know the last several hundred thousand times I watched it, it worked out alright,” she went on. “But you never know.”
“I’d better watch it again,” she added. “To make sure.”
