Women who talk about old boyfriends reminds me of take-off of an old drinking song. — “Take her down and pass her around, 99 women on the wall….”
When visiting Paris a number of years ago, my oldest was fearless ~ he’d talk to anyone in French, order food for us, and so on. My youngest was more tentative and shy and even when he knew how to say something right, wouldn’t unless the prize was sufficient, like a chocolate croissant. (Both kids were in a French immersion program; half of their school day was in French from kindergarten on.)
I once wanted to order something in a Chinese restaurant. I do not speak Chinese (regrets) and I had forgotten the name of the item in English. Yet, knowing Japanese, was able to write the name of the item in Japanese Kanji characters, which is the same as in Han Chinese characters, and was able to communicate with no problem.

my take on a scene from a humor book I read years ago. At a fancy French restaurant:
Patron: Sommelier, how is this bottle of domestic wine that costs $15?
Sommelier: Sir, we use zat to deesinfect ze toilets!
Patron: Oh, then we’ll have this French wine that costs much, much more!
Sommelier: Excellent choice, sir!

At least he didn’t order a french door. Or french bulldog.
She does look like the type who would wear french heels.

When a woman starts comparing you to her last boyfriend, especially unfavorably, it should be your last date.
