[Pft, this is kind of funny, really.]

Nope, got it backwards. First you flirt a little to see if they're actually interested, then you "court." You see, flirting is to just test the waters, see if you're both even attracted or compatible with one another. If you are, then you can start going serious. If you try to go serious first, you'll just put her off.

No, first you have to get to truly know a person. Not just the positive traits either; you have to know their flaws and their weaknesses. It's only when you've seen a person at their worst, that you'll know if you can live with and love them for the rest of your lives.

...You know, I am very tempted to actually poll everyone and see what they think about this.

Hmph. Do as you please.

[Grumble grumble.]

Anyway, going back to the initial topic of this conversation. You're doing fine with Miss Elize. So long as you prioritize her well-being and upbringing, you're on the right track.

[He is tempted. VERY TEMPTED. He might actually do it when his own love life isn't crazy.

Anyway, he's fine with the change of topic, so he rolls with it. Still amused, though.]

Yeah, I'm going to look into the school system here. See if she can't get some lessons or something. [And now there's a light grin.] But thanks for hearing me out, Lu Meng. It's appreciated.

School sounds like a good idea. Let me know how it works out for you and her.

Will do.

[Then there's a small pause, as if he's going to say something else. But in the end he dismisses it.]

Anyway, I've taken up enough of your time. We should hang out sometime when you're free.

I'm not doing anything else for the rest of the evening. You're welcome to drop by my house, if there's anything else you'd like to discuss.

[Don't think he didn't notice that weird pause.]

[Weird pause? What weird pause? There was no such thing.]

I have a few things to do so I'll have to pass for now.
