男女之間存在柏拉圖式的(platonic)純潔友誼嗎？前不久熱播的臺(tái)灣偶像劇《我可能不會(huì)愛(ài)你》討論的正是這一話題，男女主角以朋友的身份相識(shí)十五載，而愛(ài)情一直伴隨友情悄然成長(zhǎng)。
Do you believe in pure friendship between a man and woman?
你相信男女之間存在純潔的友情嗎？
Yes, that's a tacky question. But like "love at first sight", screenwriters, filmmakers and TV producers still have a lot to say about platonic friendship.
誠(chéng)然，這是個(gè)有些俗套的問(wèn)題。但就如同“一見(jiàn)鐘情”式的愛(ài)情一樣，這種柏拉圖式的純潔友誼仍被編劇，電影、電視制片人們所津津樂(lè)道。
The latest work of this type is the Taiwanese romantic drama In Time With You, which tells the story of Cheng Youqing (Ariel Lin) and Li Daren (Bolin Chen), who end up together after being each other's best friend for 14 years.
這一類(lèi)型的最新代表作當(dāng)數(shù)臺(tái)灣偶像劇《我可能不會(huì)愛(ài)你》。劇中講述了程又青（林依晨飾）和李大仁（陳柏霖飾）再做了14年好友后，最終攜手走到一起的故事。
They have very different personalities and sometimes you just don't see the attraction. Cheng's a tough, stubborn young woman; Li is a warm-hearted, soft kind of guy who often gives in to Cheng's bad temper and takes care of her.
兩人性格截然不同，有時(shí)你也不明白這兩個(gè)為什么會(huì)彼此來(lái)電。程又青是一個(gè)固執(zhí)的姑娘，而李大仁是一個(gè)熱心，溫柔的小伙子，常常要忍讓程又青的壞脾氣，還要一直照顧她。
All his kindness to her is in terms of friendship of course, because Li has once said that he would never fall in love with a girlfriend like Cheng. The pair also swear that they would never be romantically attracted to each other.
當(dāng)然，李大仁對(duì)程又青的百般呵護(hù)完全出自于友情，因?yàn)榇笕试f(shuō)過(guò)他絕不會(huì)愛(ài)上程又青這樣的女生。他們還一同發(fā)誓永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)喜歡上對(duì)方。
During their search for potential lovers, Cheng often says the girlfriends Li finds don't suit him. Meanwhile, Li is not happy with the guy Cheng is going out with. As time goes by, Li can't deny his feelings for Cheng. Yet he's unwilling to accept the truth because he doesn't want to ruin their friendship.
在他們尋找可能牽手的戀人對(duì)象時(shí)，程又青常常認(rèn)為李大仁交的女友配不上他。同時(shí)，李大仁也對(duì)程又青的交往對(duì)象感到不滿意。隨著時(shí)間推移，李大仁無(wú)法否認(rèn)對(duì)程又青的感情，但他不愿接受這個(gè)事實(shí)，因?yàn)樗幌肫茐乃麄兊挠颜x。
So, as "I would never fall in love with you" becomes "I might not love you", the series comes back to a simple point: to hide the true feelings in one's heart, or, to take a risk and tell the truth?
所以，“我絕不會(huì)愛(ài)上你”的誓言變成了“我可能不會(huì)愛(ài)你”。全劇回歸到最簡(jiǎn)單的問(wèn)題：是去隱藏心中的真實(shí)感受，還是冒險(xiǎn)說(shuō)出真相？
It's a hard decision either way — lying to ourselves is as painful as the risk of losing one of the most important people in our lives. But Li takes the risk anyway — fortunately, Cheng is there for him, like always.
無(wú)論選哪個(gè)，這都是個(gè)艱難的抉擇，因?yàn)槠垓_自己的感情同可能會(huì)失去生活中最重要的人，兩者都讓人痛心。而李大仁決定無(wú)論如何也要冒這次險(xiǎn)，幸運(yùn)的是，程又青已經(jīng)站在他身邊了，或者說(shuō)她從未離開(kāi)過(guò)。
The ending might make you believe less in platonic friendship between men and women, but it also seems to deliver a positive message: If you're lucky enough to have a soul mate like Cheng or Li, never let him or her go, because he or she might be "the one".
盡管故事結(jié)局或許會(huì)讓你對(duì)男女之間柏拉圖式的純潔友情更生疑問(wèn)，但它似乎也傳達(dá)出積極的訊息，那就是：如果你足夠幸運(yùn)，身邊有一位像程又青或李大仁這樣的精神伴侶，不要錯(cuò)過(guò)，因?yàn)樗赡芫褪悄愕恼婷熳印?/p>
