字幕原文

I went on a date once with a man 我曾经跟一个男的约过一次会,

who could only talk about his ex. 他张口闭口全是他前任。

Within the first five minutes, he'd mentioned her. 刚坐下没五分钟,他就提起了她。

By dessert, I knew her name, her job, 等到上甜点的时候,我已经知道了她的名字、工作、

her sister's name, and exactly why they broke up. 她妹妹的名字,以及他们究竟为什么分手。

I felt less like a date 我觉得自己根本不像个约会对象,

and more like a therapist he wasn't paying. 倒更像个不收钱的心理医生。

I kept trying to change the subject, 我一直试图转移话题,

asking about his hobbies, his work, anything. 问他的兴趣爱好、他的工作,聊什么都行。

And every road somehow led back to her. 可不知怎么的,聊着聊着总能绕回到她身上。

Honestly, I wasn't even offended. 说实话,我甚至都没觉得生气。

It was just clear he wasn't ready 只是很明显,他根本还没准备好

to be sitting across from anyone new. 坐在任何一个新人对面。

Some people are still living in a story that already ended, 有些人还活在一个早就结束的故事里,

and there's no room in it for you. 而那里面根本没有你的位置。

You can't be the next chapter 你成不了翻篇后的下一章,

for someone still rereading the last one. 如果对方还在反复重读上一章的话。
