    How long do you think it would’ve lasted if Francesca found out that Robert was there the night Mathew Shepard was killed and he participated ? Do you think she would look past that ?

    Absolutely. The entire plot hinged on time-bound distance and missed connections. If they had Instagram DMs and daily Stories, their affair might’ve drifted into a long-distance situationship with voice notes and blurry selfies. Tragic beauty replaced by casual connectivity.

    Or it might have ended even quicker due to constant online scrutiny and lack of privacy.
