If someone has experienced something like this, then the series is 10 out of 10, vital, even if the characters are too naive in places.

It wasn't that dramatic for me, but as a 19-year-old student, I worked as an assistant/errand boy at a travel agency. The company was small, with only 7 people, including me and the owner of the company. We immediately found a common language with the boss, we had a lot in common despite the age difference, and a sense of humor and interests and tastes and opinions on a variety of issues and views on life. Outwardly, she was also very good, slender, statuesque, self-caring, but considering that the work environment was familiar with everyone, the work and communication took place without second thoughts, just everyone was on good terms with everyone, without hints.

Each colleague's birthday was celebrated at the bar after work, and now the boss turned 40, as always we went to the bar, had a great time, after that we usually took a taxi, and the boss and I got into the same taxi, because we were going in the same direction, she got off in the center, and I drove on.
No Uber or Yandex.There was no taxi then, you had to either call on the phone or catch a car on the street. We were called, our car was delayed, the boss was clearly tipsy, she took a bottle of whiskey from a night stall and said she would rather go for a walk along the night embankment.
I understood that in such a state one cannot let a person go alone, and we went for a walk around Moscow at night.
Halfway through the bottle, her mirth abruptly turned to sadness and all her emotions came out... It turned out that she had recently divorced because her husband was cheating, and she was left alone with her daughter. I had no experience in such matters, I had no idea what to say or how to support a person, so I just stood there and listened, threw my jacket over her shoulders and at that moment she hugged me, snuggled up to me, buried her face in my chest and cried... when she calmed down a little and looked at me, instead of the usual iron businesswoman with a sarcastic sense of humor, I saw a vulnerable soul who was tired of being strong for everyone and needed support, and I don't know what was more powerful at that moment: alcohol, emotions, the romance of the night city or all of them, but I loved her He kissed me... or maybe she kissed me, or rather our lips reached out to each other at the same time... I've had girlfriends before, but I've never experienced such emotions during a kiss, when it's not just physical contact, but you're immersed in the moment, the whole world freezes and you're one...

We were together for almost a year, no one found out about it at work, or maybe they just didn't show it, but it gave our relationship even more passion, and what we had was difficult to describe and convey in words, and due to the specifics of our field of work, we had 10 "business trips" in a year in the most luxurious hotels all over Europe, where we didn't have to hide from anyone.

But despite all the passion and emotions, we understood very well from the very beginning that this was temporary and that with such an age difference, nothing serious could happen to us... By the way, this was one of our common features and similar views on life and relationships, we were both too rational and understood that there was no future for this, that our loved ones would not understand, and we were not so frivolous as the heroes of novels to give a damn about everyone and go off into the sunset together in spite of everything.

It was very hard to break up, but it was necessary.
I know that everything is fine with her, but I remember this wonderful period of her life with warmth when I see such films or TV series and while walking around Moscow at night.

It's a good series. I liked it. He is so vital and measured, and quite logical - I believe in what is happening. the characters played their roles one hundred percent. and after the finale, it's still bitter, because, well, they just wanted to be happy, but alas. (
