Shirley Valentine: I mean, most fellas ya know, they've got no idea how to talk to a woman, no. They think they have to take over the conversation. I mean with most fellas if you say something like, like my favorite season's autumn, they go oh oh my favorite season's spring and then you've got 10 minutes of them talkin about why they like spring and you weren't talkin about spring, you were talkin about autumn. So what do you do. You talk about what they want to talk about, or you dont talk at all, or you wind up talking to yourself. Costas Caldes: No?
