Don't forget she has to cheat on her husband to be with the card eater, but it's ok because we don't actually see the husband in the movie.

My partner is mysteriously infatuated with these Christmas movies.
Part of what ticks me off is it trying to say that successful women can’t have love unless they give up their career and life to be subservient to another and follow their dreams and live a “simple life”. You never see any where they go back to the “big city” and she continues with her career.
"Small-town loser lands sugar mama and moves to swanky midtown apartment" is a plot that would presumably appeal to a different audience than the one Hallmark Channel is targeting, though.
Where do I claim my sugar mama?
Are you married to tosh?
Same! Sometimes what you need to relax is garbage television and that's ok.
Mine too, but she is pretty romantic. So not exactly a mystery.
Yeah but now it opens up another mystery because these movies aren't actually romantic.
My partner said I should be more romantic. I asked what that means, and was told, "You know, romantic."
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Try eating some halmark greeting cards.
Still better than a real Hallmark movie.
Why is this funny? Eating cards? Wtf.
That's the level of inane all Hallmark movies are. Zero character development, no conflict plot devices, just a bunch of "awww that's sweet" without making the audience use any kind of critical thinking. Eating cards is a step up.
This actually makes me want to watch one just to see how empty and cringe it is. Are there any particular ones that really highlight what it means to be a "Hallmark movie"?
Here's their website:

They're all fairly similar; I think if you blindly pick one you'll still get what you're looking for
I haven't watched one in many years, IF I've ever watched one
Oh man, I'll have to get the egg nog ready! Thank you!
Hallmark is the cotton candy of Christmas shows. Some people hate them, some people love them, but no matter what you feel about them it's all just mostly brightly colored empty air.
If you want real cringe, then you need to make your way over to the Lifetime network. There they serve up really strong doses of Kopi Luwak (cat shit coffee).
Lol, i might just have to take the plunge and see just how deep the cringe goes... I have a feeling this could be the beginning of a great or terrible era in my life 🎄🫠🍷
Such nonsense, hallmark cards are meant to wipe your ass with.
Is this some kind of acid joke?
