Luann: "Gunther, when you call Rosa, don't UM so much. Get to the point!" Gunther: "That would be a lot easier if I knew what the point IS" Luann: "It's just to chat! Get to know each other. Y'know, just TALK!" Gunther: "I'm not good at small talk, Luann. Especially with a girl" Luann: "Then let's practice. We'll just pretend, ok? "Hi, Gunther!" Gunther: "So I'm pretending you're a girl, right?"
Luann is handling it so well.She doesn’t have a crush on Gunther, so she can accept that he’s known her so long she’s not “a girl”. She’s just Luann. He’s not “making small talk” with her, he’s talking to her, just like he would to Knute. Sigh…. I understand too.At Luann’s age I was that non-girl pal. The one the boys (including your current crush) are so comfortable with that they share stuff — like how they wish the girl they “liked” could be just like YOU.Only, you know, not you. Thanks.
