DEAR YOUNG WOMAN: A Conversation Lesson
Dear young woman,
Picture this phone convo.
Boy: What’s the problem?
Girl: Nothing.
(Seven minutes of back and forth…)
Girl: Babe, I think I should go. I need to get myself.
Boy: Babe, if you go, there’s no guarantee you would come back better. Why not wait and let me make you better.
Girl: (grumbles for three seconds) I don’t know what to say to that.
Boy: Don’t say anything. Just listen.
