心要让你听见
最近看《向左走,向右走》,看着男女主角一次又一次地错过,郁闷得半死。恋人不满,是最甜蜜也是最心有未甘的时候,心要让你听见,爱要大胆说出口。
OK, 今天要谈的主题就是怎么去表达自己内心的感觉。
1. I’m emotionally unavailable.
我已经心有所属了(死会)。
一个人还没有男女朋友就可以说“I am
available(活会).”有一回,我和学生说,MBA是一些人的生活态度,他们都很惊讶:MBA还可以当态度用?当我解释说MBA也就是,
"Married, But still Available." 的意思时,他们的下巴都快掉下来了。
2. I still have feelings for him.
我对他还有感情。
《六人行》 (Friends) 里的经典名句。 有一次 Chandler 的前任女友 Janice 来找他, 还说要在他家过夜, 那
Chandler 的现任女友 Monica 反对的理由就是, "He still has feelings for you.",
更劲爆的是下一句, "Feelings can't go forever, but you can." (感情是不会永远消失的,
但是,你可以永远消失) .
3. She is the girl I'm clicking with.
她就是跟我来电的那个女孩。
举个例子来说吧, 今天去相亲(现在很时髦的运动), 回来之后别人问你结果如何? 你就可以这么说啦, "I clicked with that
guy."这句话你也可以说成, "We have chemistry." 4. I bound with her, but it didn't
go anywhere. 我跟她有往来, 但是没有什么事发生。
5. Maybe I don't deserve you.
也许我真的配不上你。
如果有人失恋了, 你可以安慰他 "You deserve someone better." (你一定可以找到更好的)。
6. It's always been you.
我喜欢的一直都是你。
女生不是常常会对男生的忠诚度打问号吗,“说, 你现在还像以前那么喜欢我吗?”老美一句很好用的挡箭牌, "It's always been
you." (我喜欢的人一直是你啊.)。 最后Suky祝大家都能找到自己的另一半,大胆地把爱说出口。
