And I thought I've done my fair share of "front line."
So I decided to practice back here.
Where I'm not being shot at for a change.
That sounds amazing.
Does it?
Oh, absolutely.
Why did you take the test if you have a boyfriend?
[Sighs] I don't even really like him.
I asked him to move out,
and he didn't wanna leave. So...
So, you just let him stay?
I've had some...
bad relationships.
A... A lot actually.

I didn't mean to kill the mood.
No.
No, not at all.
