[00:17.57]He says he's too busy to spend time with us.
[00:21.39]Then, when he is with us,
[00:23.84]he's thinking¹ about other things
[00:26.01]and he's too nervous to enjoy himself.
[00:29.99]It's like we're not important enough
[00:32.11]or something.
[00:33.66]Or his work is too important to him.
[00:37.39]It's not fair.
[00:39.94]He doesn't understand how things are today.
[00:43.71]Things were different when he was a teenager

[01:25.95]like all her friends have.
[01:28.67]Then she tells us that

[01:33.84]So what does she really want?
