Abwarten und Tee trinken
- Tell me everything where you went, what you ate, what you did, how it ended. Don't leave anything out.
- He took me to a pool hall. We ate buffalo wings.
- That's horrifying.
- Not my first choice, but it was fine. The whole thing was fine.
- Please tell me that he made up for his poor dining choices by being a voracious lover.
- What? No. We didn't even kiss.
- Okay. So, this is the worst date ever? Is that what you're telling me?
- I don't think it was the worst date ever. It was just "eh".
- "Eh"?
- But it's fine. It's not like I ever thought he was the one.
- Well, then, why the heck did you ask him out?
- Because you said I needed to get out there, and he'd already asked me out a bunch of times, so..
- Oh, no, no, no. You asked him out because you knew he was gonna say yes. You can't cheat the dating game like that. You can't ask people out because you know they're gonna say yes. You have to ask them out because you want them to say yes.
- What if the person you want to ask out doesn't want to go out with you?
- What are you, 12? Welcome to the 99.999% of people. You ask them out, you get rejected, it's weird, you move on. But you really got to want it, or else what's the point?
