英文原版对话1000个:988 The Break Up

（单词翻译）

Crystal: Hey, George, actually it's funny that you mentioned relationships 'cause I'm actually having a problem with Joe.

George: Is that the guy with the curly¹ hair?

Crystal: Yeah, that guy. He's really nice and everything, but like I really don't think it's working out.

George: Why what's wrong?

Crystal: Well, he's really narrow-minded and I'm really different. We just ... he's nice and everything. He's kind and sweet, and it's just not for me, like we're totally different people.

George: I see. So what are you going to do?

Crystal: I think I have to rip² the band-aid and I think I'm just gonna send him an e-mail or something.

George: E-mail! But you've been dating for awhile now and you like him, right?

Crystal: Yeah, we're like so sweet together, but it's just ... I don't see a future.

George: But isn't an e-mail just a little too cold and he might tell other people about it, I mean: rumors³ spreading and whatnot.

Crystal: OK, then, what do you think I should do? How should I do it?

George: You should probably just meet him face-to-face?

Crystal: Ugh! Face-to-face. OK. Where should I meet him? Like do you think I should just invite him over to my place?

George: You should probably do it in public, where, you know...

Crystal: Ooh, good, good, good, good. I think that's better.

George: Maybe that cafe.

Crystal: Ah, that cafe. Yeah.

George: While I'm having my date, you can be breaking up with your boyfriend. It'll be great!

Crystal: You're so mean.

George: I'm sorry. That was uncalled for.

Crystal: I don't know what to say. What do you think would hurt him less?

George: I gotta say honesty would be the best policy.

Crystal: Honesty. OK, so this is what I'm going to say: "Joe, you're great, but we're not meant to be." How's that?

George: Yeah, it's great. It's great.

Crystal: OK, so, OK, OK, I'm done. I think I'll meet him at the cafe, and OK, things will work from then. I'll improvise⁴.
