I can relate to this movie because I experienced something pretty close to what Benny and Joon had together. Benny and Joon had a brother and sister relationship. I had more of a dating relationship where I still took care of the girl but she wasn't my sister.. I remember being over protective of my girlfriend and I would get jealous if I saw her talking to other guys. Although my girlfriend wasn't mentally ill I had a problem with her not opening up to me. She wouldn't tell me anything that was going on and it got to one point where I asked her if everything was okay, she told me casually that everything was fine when it really wasn't. I might have played a little too aggressive and probably gave her the wrong impression of myself. She just didn't feel comfortable telling me some things and I get going at it to get it out of her. That created a problem between us and what I should have done was to just give her time so that when she feels comfortable, she can tell me at that time. I believe that I just wanted to know everything..
