It’s a real shame that
A: I’m gonna break up with Steven.
B: It’s a real shame that you don’t like him. Not only can he sing, but he can also dance.
A: He’s nice and talented. I, however, don’t feel the thing. I don’t think he’s the right one. Can I leave him a message?
B: No, you have to talk to him face to face.
A: Ok. Can I just say he should rid himself of smoking, but he couldn’t , that’s why I have to break up with him?
B: No, you should tell him the truth… or maybe you can say that he deserves someone better. Do you think it’s too cliched?
A: No. Cliche is cliche for a reason. It’s comforting.He is a man of principle, I respect him.
B: Yes, but you expect nothing of him.
A: He believes in: in a place where there is a will, there is a way.
B: Yes, but you don’t love him.
A: I’m so worried about the fact that breaking up with him doesn’t mean I can find my Mr. Right.
B: Remember this: in a place where there is a wish, there’s a way.
