1
When a girl you like asks you if you're up, what's the best way to respond?
2
With a simple yes?
3
With a funny joke?
4
Or with a confident flirt?
5
The answer is: It depends.
6
If it's Lizzy, a witty joke a day will make her fall in love with you right away.
7
Okay.
8
Yeah, I'm still up.
9
Bye.
10
If it's Rachel, she's a little wild so something risky will be perfect.
11
Yeah, I'm up.
12
And if it's Paige, well, you just don't respond.
13
She'll start to overthink and...
14
bingo.
15
If you know the kind of fish you're up against, you'll know the exact kind of bait you need to use to reel it in.
16
And if you don't, well,
17
It'll probably just ignore you and swim far far away until you've completely lost sight of it.
18
Um, that's a little quick note.
19
Sorry, I'm looking for something long term - We can be friends though.
20
Yeah, it was the wrong bait.
21
Or rather, the wrong fish.
22
See, I thought salmon was like the others.
23
Small betta fish waiting to get caught.
24
But she was something much, much bigger.
25
I had used the wrong bait on her, but hear me out.
26
I've been talking to Sammy for two months now, taken her out on two dates, met her dog, yada yada yada, and now she was swimming away.
27
But I didn't lose sight of her just yet.
28
You know I don't want to just be friends with you.
29
Well, what do you want to be then?
30
Something long term?
31
Yeah.
32
Saying yes to her was like my free get out of jail card.
33
She basically just handed it to me and all I had to do was take it.
34
But my intention with her was to have a bit of fun, not to be her boyfriend.
35
So what should I have done?
36
Lie to her?
37
Yeah...
38
I ain't no liar.
39
I'll be straightforward with you.
40
I'm not looking for a long -term relationship right now, but...
41
I think you're really cute and I always look forward to hanging with you.
42
- Ooh.
43
Okay...
44
I respect your decision if you want to end things here, but...
45
I just want you to know you're not just some random girl I don't care about.
46
I can't tell if you actually care if you're just desperate.
47
You think I would've happily dog -sat dumpling for you despite my allergy to dogs if I didn't care?
48
I'll miss him by the way.
49
Okay, true.
50
How many other girls are you talking to?
51
Talking to or crushing on?
52
Because depending on which one, one is the answer.
53
I see.
54
I just don't want to get hurt from this.
55
Just don't fall in love with me.
56
I know, I know, it might be hard.
57
My dad has a shotgun FYI, I'm more scared of your allergy filled dog.
58
You see, when other people try to fish, they're fishing in the whole ocean where the fish can get away.
59
It's in a confined tank.
60
No matter how far away the fish tries to swim, I'll always be able to catch it.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
