A man walked into a therapist's office looking very depressed. "Doc, you've got to help me. I can't go on like this." |
relationship – związek I can't go on like this – ja już dalej tak nie mogę |
|
"What's the problem?" the doctor inquired. |
inquire – zapytać |
|
"Well, I'm 35 years old and I still have no luck with the ladies. No matter how hard I try, I just seem to scare them away." |
no matter how hard I try – niezależnie od tego, jak bardzo się staram scare away – odstraszać |
|
"My friend, this is not a serious problem. You just need to work on your self-esteem. Each morning, I want you to get up and run to the bathroom mirror. Tell yourself that you are a good person, a fun person, and an attractive person. But say it with real conviction. Within a week you'll have women buzzing all around you." |
self-esteem – poczucie własnej wartości conviction – przekonanie buzz around – kręcić się |
|
The man seemed content with this advice and walked out of the office a bit excited. Three weeks later he returned with the same downtrodden expression on his face. |
content – zadowolony downtrodden – uciemiężony, uciskany |
|
"Did my advice not work?" asked the doctor. |
|
|
"It worked alright. For the past several weeks I've enjoyed some of the best moments in my life with the most fabulous looking women." |
fabulous – fantastyczny, bajeczny |
|
"So, what's your problem?" |
|
|
"I don't have a problem," the man replied. "My wife does." |
