Sheesh. When a girl says stuff like that "jokingly" it usually has something to take serious about it...she probably really wanted to be with him but he never took her seriously. I feel for you girl!
...Yeah. If you had taken her seriously, maybe things would have been different, and we might have gotten a happier ending.
With a title like that, I guess it isn't too much to expect an ending like that, but I was still hoping it'd turn out well for the both of them.
In a sense it feels more realistic, maybe? But I really did want him to just take her away with him.
