What does the “500 Days of Summer” meme mean?

Where does the “500 Days of Summer” meme come from?
The concept originates from the 2009 indie film (500) Days of Summer directed by Marc Webb. The story follows Tom, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who believes he has found his soulmate in Summer, portrayed by Zooey Deschanel. Their initial connection stems from shared cultural tastes, particularly their mutual love for The Smiths. Tom interprets these affinities as signs of a destined union. However, Summer views their relationship as casual without long-term potential. The nonlinear narrative illustrates how Tom constructs an idealized narrative, disregarding warnings. The phrase summarizes this dynamic: Tom projects his desires onto a simple coincidence in a record store aisle.
