When discussing the possibility of getting a sunburn, Amanda remarks to Victor, "I did so hope our honeymoon was going to be progressive" in response to his declaration that he could not love her anymore than he already does. What does this statement portend about Amanda's views on relationships, particularly her marriage to Victor?
Amanda is shown to be a very passionate, open woman. Victor, while a nice person, is clearly portrayed as too stodgy for his new wife. Her remark about their honeymoon being progressive shows that Amanda believes love should ebb and flow, never remaining the same for too long. Victor clearly believes that their love is fine the way it is, though Amanda would like a little more excitement. It could also be implied that Amanda was hoping that the progressiveness would be on her end. She does not love Victor and some part of her might have been hoping that a romantic honeymoon could change that.
