The selfish person
自私的人
You Never Meet His Friends
他从不让你进入他的朋友圈
The selfish person talks about his other friends but never introduces you to any of them and always comes alone. He gives you the impression of knowing lots of people, but when you listen to the stories he tells, you find out that it’s all superficial. He’s always hanging out with people he barely knows, and you rarely find him with close buddies, but you always hear him talk about the relationships he has with powerful people, it never ends.
自私的人总向你谈起他的其他朋友,但却又总是单独见你,从不将你介绍给他的朋友们。他在你面前表现得好像认识很多很多人,但当你仔细听他所说的话时,会发现其实都只是泛泛之交。他总是跟自己不甚了解的人交往,没什么真心朋友。但他还是会乐此不疲地谈论着自己跟某些大人物如何如何。
If you want to laugh, ask him if he could introduce you to so and so: He’ll give you the stupidest excuses why that can’t happen“now”, but maybe a“little bit later.”It actually never happens, but it’s funny to see him try to evade your request.
要是你不相信,可以试着问他能否将你介绍给他的朋友——然后他会给出各种好笑的理由,说什么“现在还不行,以后再说吧”。其实根本就没有“以后”,只是他这么慌不择路地躲闪言辞实在很可笑。
