I like you!
I like you, too!
How much?
This much? -------------
Oh...
Why?
I like you this much... ----
There's an imbalance.
What do you see when you see me?
A relationship.
Oh...
What do you see?
Fun dates??
Yeah, okay, I'm cool with that!
Are you?
Not really, but I'll pretend.
But you're going to develop feelings that aren't substantiated by anything tangible.
I'll just keep hoping you change your mind.
Fully knowing that I won't?
Mmhmm.
Well, that's delusional.
Yes.
You're going to get hurt.
I'm aware.
Why would you put yourself through that?
Well I'd rather have some of you than none.
I feel like I should end this before it gets to that point.
Why?
Well the longer we see each other, the harder the blow will be on you.
So end it...
Mmmm... I wont.
Why?
Because I'm getting everything I want at your expense. You end it.
I won't.
Why?
Because I lack the self-respect to walk away.
Hmm.
Maybe we should look for people that actually want the same things we do.
