“可是他給了我電話(huà)號(hào)碼”的借口

Dear Greg,

親愛(ài)的格雷格，

I met a really cute guy at a bar this week. He gave mehis number and told me to give him a call sometime.

我這禮拜在酒吧遇到了一個(gè)非?？蓯?ài)的家伙。他給了我他的電話(huà)號(hào)碼，讓我給他打個(gè)電話(huà)。

I thought that was kind of cool, that he gave mecontrol of the situation like that. I can call him, right?

我覺(jué)得那挺棒的，他給了我控制權(quán)。我可以打電話(huà)給他嗎?

Dear Control Freak,

親愛(ài)的控制狂，

Did he give you control, or did he just get you to do the heavy lifting?

他是給你控制權(quán)了，還是只是給了你重?fù)?dān)呢?

What he just did was a magic trick: It seems like he gave you control, but really he now gets todecide if he wants to go out with you—or even return your call.

他只是變了個(gè)戲法：看起來(lái)他給了你控制權(quán)，但實(shí)際上，他才有權(quán)決定是否和你出去，甚至給你回電話(huà)。

Why don't you take Copperfield's number, roll it in a newspaper, pour milk in it, and make itdisappear.

你為什么不把科波菲爾德的電話(huà)用報(bào)紙卷起來(lái)，倒上牛奶讓它消失呢。

“Give me a call.” “E-mail me.” “Tell Joey we should all hang out sometime.”

“給我打個(gè)電話(huà)。”“給我發(fā)郵件。”“告訴喬伊我們應(yīng)該找個(gè)時(shí)間出去玩兒。”

Don't let him trick you into asking him out.

別陷入他給你設(shè)置的約他出去的陷阱里。

When men want you, they do the work.

如果男人想見(jiàn)你的話(huà)，他們會(huì)約你出去的。

I know it sounds old school, but when men like women, they ask them out.

我知道這聽(tīng)起來(lái)像老一套，但是如果一個(gè)男人喜歡一個(gè)女人的話(huà)，他會(huì)約她出去的。

The "Maybe He Forgot to Remember Me" Excuse

“他可能忘了我”的借口

Dear Greg,

親愛(ài)的格雷格，

Okay, Greg. Listen to this one: I was at a conference for work and met a guy from another branchof my company.

好的，格雷格。聽(tīng)著，：我在一場(chǎng)工作會(huì)議上遇到了一個(gè)我們公司另一個(gè)部門(mén)的男人。

We hit it off immediately. He was just about to ask for my number, I swear, when the Big Blackoutof 2003 happened.

我們立馬看對(duì)眼了。我發(fā)誓，他正要問(wèn)我電話(huà)號(hào)碼來(lái)著，2003大停電發(fā)生了。

In the mayhem, I didn't get to give him my number.

在混亂中，我沒(méi)能給他我的號(hào)碼。

I think the Big Blackout of 2003 is a good enough excuse to call him, don't you think?

我覺(jué)得2003年大停電是個(gè)給他打電話(huà)的好借口，你覺(jué)得呢?

It's only common courtesy for me to check up on him, right?

問(wèn)候他只是一般禮節(jié)對(duì)么?

If I don't call, he's probably going to be all sad thinking that I'm just not that into him.

如果我不給他打電話(huà)的話(huà)，他可能會(huì)以為我不是那么喜歡他而難過(guò)。

Dear Judy Blackout,

親愛(ài)的停電朱迪，

The city blacked out. He didn't.

是市里停電了，又不是他昏過(guò)去了。

You said you work for different branches of the same company.

你說(shuō)你們?cè)谕患夜镜牟煌块T(mén)工作。

Certainly he wouldn't have to break a sweat to scroll through the company staff roster orinteroffice e-mail listing to find you.

很顯然他無(wú)需流一滴汗就能在公司員工花名冊(cè)或局間的電子郵件清單里找到你。

And should he not be as resourceful as you are...I imagine that he has a mother, sister, or femalefriend that could show him how, if he was really interested.

即便他不像你一樣資源豐富……我猜想他有一個(gè)媽媽?zhuān)妹?，或者女性朋友可以告訴他怎么做，如果他真的對(duì)你很感興趣的話(huà)。

P.S. : Shame on you for using an eastern seaboard disaster as an excuse to call a guy up.

注：用一個(gè)東部沿海地區(qū)的災(zāi)害為借口給一個(gè)人打電話(huà)，我真以你為恥。

Regards Greg

格雷格祝安
