Let's say a guy named Mike is attracted
to a woman named Lisa. He asks her out to a movie; she accepts;
they have a pretty good time. A few nights later he asks her
out to dinner, and again they enjoy themselves.
They continue to see each other regularly,
and after a while neither one of them is seeing anybody else.
And then, one evening when they're driving home, a
thought occurs to Lisa, and, without really thinking, she says it aloud:
"Do you realise that, as of tonight, we've been
seeing each other for exactly six months?"
And then there is silence in the car. To Lisa, it seems like
a very loud silence.
She thinks to herself: Jeez, I wonder
if it bothers him that I said that. Maybe he's been feeling
confined by our relationship; maybe he thinks I'm
trying to push him into some kind of obligation that he doesn't
want, or isn't sure of.
And Mike is thinking: Gosh. Six months.
