I was watching "Friends" and here is a scene that inspired me a lot. I just wonder how some of you deal with such situations
Chandler walked in when Russ and Rachel were making out. Chandler was really upset abt something so Russ asked him whats the matter.
Chandler said Jeanise (his girlfriend back then) asked him if she is fat. (you know, this is one of those questions that you have to answer before you think ^&^) Chandler said "so I looked at her and..."
then Russ interrupted him "wow, you LOOKED at her" Rachel said "thats what you did wrong honey"
Russ "yeah, you NEVER look. Am I fat? nooooo. You don't look, just answer"
kinda funny, but it is so true. I remember once being showed a picture, and my friend asked me abt how I think of the picture.
I didn't answer her because she looked *whisper in dreadful silence* a little bit overweighted. ok, she is [b]NOT[/v] fat, but that picture does represent a certain alternated version of reality
she got all upset at me and said "Do you think I am fat? I know I am..." having learnt a lesson from Chandler's demise, I answered on my instinct "nooooooo, you are not."
she said, it is OK, "you can tell me the truth" (what she really meant was if you love me, you'd lie to me
) and of course I wouldn't fall to her "little trick", so I said "no no, you are NOT fat. I cannot lie to you when it is the truth"
she said "awww... you don't have to say that..." I was like "really? okay, you did look a little..." I paused in horror as I sensed the gathering of storms on her face, then I quickly sucked in my breath and swallowed what I wanted to say, instead I said "really really really... mmm, erhm, cute, yeah cute, and sexy. I ... I ... I like it."
^^ not complaining, just thought it really funny. sigh, girl, she does know all the ways to pull your heartstring.
