对话文本
J: how's it going?
P: I'm in a really bad mood, actually. How about you?
J: to be honest, I'm a bit fed up.
P: what's wrong?
J: well, my boyfriend was supposed to call me last night, but he never did.
P: that's too bad. I'm sure there's a logical explaination for it. Don't be too upset about it.
J: the thing is, this isn't the first time he's promised to do something and then didn't.
P: I see how that can get a bit annoying.
J: a bit? I'm extremely annoyed that he didn't phone me when he promised me that he would! He's such a liar.
P: so what are you going to do about it?
J: I don't know. I've got mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, I really want to end it with him, but on the other hand, I don't want to be without him.
P: what do you think would make you happier?
J: in the long run, I think breaking up with him would make me much happier, but I know that I'll be depressed about it for a few weeks first.
P: relationships can be confusing sometimes.
J: what would you do if you were me?
P: I'd call him and dump him now! You deserve better than him!
