Was there space for Jack on that raft?

"Romance isn't about dying for love, but helping one live"

By Megha Marwah

I first watched Titanic when I was about 10 years old. All I remembered for years was the grandness of the film. It was only when Instagram came around and people started making memes about iconic films that I heard the big debate: why couldn't Rose just make space for Jack?

That made sense.

Think of it. Even if there wasn't space on that plank, he could have figured something else out. Could they both swim? We know he could!

He wasn't trying to survive. He just wanted to be around. Why? Because he loved her.
