Family man Mitch (Jason Bateman) and his best friend Dave (Ryan Reynolds), a swinger with minimal responsibilities, head out for a typical night of drinking. When they wake up the next morning, instead of having a hangover, their lives became magically switched. After experiencing each other’s day-to-day routines, they both work to find a way to switch back to their normal lives, attempting to cause as little damage as possible.  The Change-Up should have its funny moments, if you enjoyed movies such as The Hangover, Shanghai Knights and Wedding Crashers. Expect a fair share of crude moments, causing a date night to be either successful or awkward, depending on your tastes.
Is it okay to be jealous of your single friends?
Cupid’s Advice:
Ideally the answer would be “no”, but sometimes on bad days, it’s easy to lapse into jealousy. Cupid has some positive suggestions:
1. Count your blessings: Take a page from the Christmas movie, It’s a Wonderful Life. Try to recall all of the little blessings you take for granted and how your life would be different without them.
2. Hypothetically speaking: Take some time to really think about your alternative life if were were to trade places with your friends. Â Although it’s easier to look at the pros, ask yourself about the cons and possible consequences that come with being single again.
3. Love stories: If all else fails, try to vividly remember how you and your partner met and fell in love — then ask yourself if that’s really worth trading in for a life of debauchery.
