Não há cá ambiguidades

A partir de agora, quando entrarmos naquelas conversas circulares, arrastadas de forma interminável com a fatal pergunta de (re)arranque “o que é que tu achas?”, a primeira que se lembrar dirá: “He’s just not that into you”. Combinado?

Charlotte – So how did the date end?

Miranda – He walks me home, he kissed me goodnight at the door, I invited him up – he couldn’t ‘cause he had an early meeting -, we kissed again, then he said he’d call.

Carrie – Two kisses. Very promising.

Miranda – You think? Even though he didn’t come up?

Charlotte – Definitely. It means he likes you but he wants to take it slow. That’s nice.

Miranda – Berger, what do you think?

Jack Berger – You really wanna know?

Miranda – Please, I would love to have a mans’ opinion for a change.

Berger – All right. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it for you. He’s just not that into you.

Charlotte – That’s not true!

Carrie – Don’t listen to him!

Miranda – No, no, I’m intrigued. Elaborate.

Berger – Look, I’m sorry but when a guy is really into you he’s coming upstairs, meeting or no meeting.

Carrie – Oh, that is ludicrous! What about extenuating circumstances? What about you’re stressed out, you’re on a deadline, you have a migraine…

Charlotte - … or a lot of guys are afraid of getting their feelings hurt and they don’t wanna ruin a friendship…

Miranda - … or, or, or they’re freaked out by their own feelings. There’s a lot of “push-pull” out there, a lot of mixed messages.

Berger – Yeah, I have to say that’s all code for “he’s not that into you”. With guys it’s very simple: we’re into you, we’re coming up, we’re booking the next date. There are no mixed messages.

Charlotte – No mixed messages?

Miranda – I’ve spent my life deciphering mixed messages.

Carrie – I’ve made a whole career of it!

Miranda – Uau. He’s just not that into me. I love it. It is the most liberating thing I have ever heard. Think how much time and therapy I could have saved over the last twenty years if I had known this.
