Dialogue 1
John likes Jenny,
but he's afraid to ask her out. His friend Jack is trying to encourage him.
John: Hey, Jack,
is Jenny coming with us?
Jack: Yes. Why?
John: Nothing. I'm
just asking.
Jack: Just asking?
But why is your face burning like mad? Ah-huh, someone has a crush on Jenny,
doesn't he?
John: Who has a
crush?!
Jack: Come on,
John, don't be such a chicken. If you like her, you've got to tell her.
Maybe she likes you.
John: But I don't
have the guts to ask her out.
Jack: What're you
so afraid of?
John: I'd totally
die if she turned me down.
Jack: But that's
better than keeping everything to yourself. You've got to let her know. Come
on! You've got to take a chance!
John: I don't
know....Well, maybe, you're right, but how am I going to tell her?
Dialogue 2
John has a new
girlfriend. His friend Jack is envious....
John: Hi, Jack,
long time, no see!
Jack: Yeah! How's
everything going?
John: Not bad! At
least I'm still alive.
Jack: Just alive?
I heard you're going out with Jane.
John: Where did
you get that idea?
Jack: Oh, come on.
Jane is a very nice girl, someone you meet only once in a lifetime.
John: Yeah, you're
right. I'm not boasting, but she's really as beautiful as she is
intelligent.
Jack: Well, I
really envy you for finding such a girl.
Dialogue 3
Jane's friend
Michelle tells Jane that she's lucky to have Jack as her boyfriend
because....
Michelle: I heard
you're going out with Jack.
Jane: Yes. To be
frank, I really love him to death.
Michelle: You're
so lucky!
Jane: Why do you
say that?
Michelle: Why? Are
you kidding me? A boy like him is so hard to find. So caring, so patient,
and, did I mention, so handsome?
Jane: It's very
nice of you to say so.
Michelle: Well,
it's not a compliment. I'm saying it from the bottom of my heart! It's
obvious that he's head over heels in love with you.
Jane: I sure hope
so.
Dialogue 4
Jenny's boyfriend
is a very nice person, but her friend Katie is concerned about his age....
Katie: Jenny, I
know you like John a lot, but what do you like about him?
Jenny: Well,
there's just something about him. Don't you think so?
Katie: Really?
What's this something?
Jenny: Well, he's
mature, handsome, gentle, and successful. I think he's my Mr. Right!
Katie: He's
certainly mature, but don't you think he's a little old for you? He's almost
twice as old as you are!
Jenny: Well, age
shouldn't be something that comes in the way of a person's marriage. As long
as we love each other, age is not an issue. It never has been!
Katie: But what
will others think about it?
Jenny: I don't
care what others will think about us. I just know I love him and he loves
me. And that's all that matters.
Dialogue 5
Tom wants to
settle down and start a family, but his girlfriend Monica is not ready yet.
Therefore, they have to break up....
Jack: Hi, Tom, how
have you been?
Tom: Not very
well.
Jack: Why? What
happened? You look so down!
Tom: Nothing.
Jack: Come on. For
a man who's so down, there're usually two reasons. Either his career is
going downhill, or he has a broken heart. You're so successful, so....
Tom: Well, you're
right. I just broke up with Monica.
Jack: Oh, I'm
sorry. I thought you two were made for each other.
Tom: Well, you
never know. I'm ready for a commitment and want to settle down, but she says
she wants to pursue her career while she's still young.
Jack: Well, it's
always difficult to choose between career and family.
Tom: Maybe you're
right.
Jack: John, I
don't know what to say to comfort you, but cheer up! There's plenty of fish
out there and you'll find your perfect match!
Tom: Yeah, but
it's hard to forget her at the moment. You know, we were together for almost
five years. It's really hard....
Dialogue 6
Mike has recently
broken up with his girlfriend because....
John: Hi, Mike,
we're having a party tonight, wanna come join us? You can bring your
girlfriend.
Mike:
Well...er...I'm breaking up with Cathy.
John: What
happened? Did you have a big fight?
Mike: No. She's
really a very nice girl....
John: Yeah, she's
pretty and caring.
Mike: Well, she's
really caring, but sometimes it's too much...and uh...I kind of want a
break, you know...some room for myself.
John: Did you talk
with her about it?
Mike: I've tried,
but...it didn't work.
John: Oh, I'm
really sorry to hear that. When are you going to tell her?
Mike: Maybe
tonight, I don't know. I don't know how to tell her.
John: I know she's
head over heels in love with you and she'll really be hurt.
Mike: I know....
