Novelist and official Southern Belle Loraine Despres used to warn me to be wary of men who say, "When I'm done with you…" As in, "When I'm done with you, you'll know Paris like the back of your hand," or, "By the time I'm done with you, you'll have a wardrobe of real silk lingerie." It means, she says, he expects to be done with you. Me, all I hear is Paris and panties.

　　小说家洛兰·德普雷是一位真正的南方淑女，她过去常警告我要小心那些说“……我才会和你分开”的男人，比如“你对巴黎了如指掌的时候，我才会和你分开”，或者“你拥有一整柜真丝内衣的时候，我才会和你分开” 。洛兰认为男人说这些话的意思是他想和你分手。而我呢，只听到巴黎和裤裤。

　　What he really means: "Take off your clothes."

　　What he says: "This is getting too intense too fast. We should make some space."

　　他说：“一切来得太快太突然，我们应该留点空间。”

　　What I hear: "The depth of my passion for you scares me."

　　我听到的是：“我对你火热的激情让我不知所措。”

　　What he really means: "I'm interested in seeing someone else."

　　他真正想说的是：“我想再找别人。”

　　What he says: "It's not you, it's me."

　　他说：“不怪你，怪我。”

　　What I hear: "You are perfect, I am broken. Will you fix me?"
