Alright, folks, let’s dive into my little adventure today of finding movies similar to “Five Feet Apart.” You know, the kind that tugs at your heartstrings and makes you appreciate every breath you take. I’m a sucker for those kinds of stories.
The Starting Point
So, I started by re-watching “Five Feet Apart” – gotta get in the right emotional headspace, right? Grabbed some tissues (a must!), settled on the couch, and hit play. I cried, I laughed, you know, the whole shebang. It made me realize how good some romance movie.
The Hunt Begins
Once the movie was over, I was on a mission. I grabbed my laptop and fired up Google. My first search was pretty straightforward: “movies like five feet apart.”

I scrolled through a bunch of articles and lists, you know, the usual “Top 10 Tearjerkers” kind of stuff. I jotted down a few titles that sounded promising, stuff that seemed to have that same mix of romance, illness, and overcoming obstacles.
Digging Deeper
I didn’t want to just rely on those top 10 lists, though. I wanted to find some hidden gems. So, I started looking at specific elements of “Five Feet Apart.” I searched for things like “movies about cystic fibrosis,” “young adult romance with illness,” and even “movies with forbidden love.”
Making a List
As I found movies, I started a list. Here’s a peek at what I ended up with:
- The Fault in Our Stars: I knew this. Classic.
- Everything, Everything: Sound intersting.
- Me Before You: Hmm.
The Next Step
I narrowed down my options based on what I could easily stream or rent. I figured I’d start with those, then branch out if I was still craving more.
The Verdict (So Far)
So that’s where I’m at! I’ve got my list, I’ve got my snacks, and I’m ready for a movie marathon.I’m ready to write my own story.
It’s been a fun little project, actually. It’s always cool to discover new movies, especially when they’re in a genre you already love. And hey, who knows, maybe I’ll find a new favorite!
