"Maybe I should try dating again."
"Again? You've had a boyfriend?"
"When I was fifteen. I wasn't a good girlfriend."
"Don't tell me he told you that."
"He did."
"Asshole. Why?"
"I was mean. I didn't want to cuddle. I didn't go along with everything he said in public. I broke his heart."
"Still his fault."
"That's touching. Really."
"My pleasure."
"So maybe I'll try dating. I'm curious."
"Please don't, Kat."
"Why not?"
"Boys are horrible."
