You won't be used, Greg. I am a gentleman at heart.
We'll just take things slowly and figure things out together then.

I'm sure. If I had to choose one word to describe you, it would be gentleman.
About Friday, are we meeting there, or shall I pick you up, or are you picking me up?

Let's hope you find a few other words to describe me then once you get to know me better. I'll pick you up in one of my cars. No need to waste resources when we can travel together.

I'm sure I will, and I'm looking forward to finding out what those words will be. If we're going in one of your cars you have to promise me that none of your rude assistants are going to be there. Not sure if I can meet Anthea again and not want to murder her.

I assure you that I prefer not to have any assistants with me on dates. It rather spoils the mood, don't you think?

Exactly. Just wanted to make sure. You seem very unpredictable. Anyway, will be looking forward to seeing you Friday.

I...unpredictable? How very novel. I'm looking forward to Friday as well.

Novel? You know, I have absolutely no clue what you're talking about most of the time. You really are like no one I've ever met before.

I am not normally considered unpredictable. I am actually quite settled in my routine. I do hope my being unique is an asset.

Of course. I've got too much experience with average people, I'm looking for something more interesting and exciting. Being settled in a routine doesn't make you predictable, in my experience of psychopaths and murderers.

Oh Jesus, not that I'm calling you a psychopath or a murderer.

I understood what you meant Greg. I'll endeavor to be what you need then in terms of excitement.

Don't endeavor to be anything, just... keep doing what you're doing. I was attracted to you because you're you, please don't change just to please me.

That's very good to know so long as you keep the same advice. I know I come from a very different background but I hope that won't matter in the end.

Don't worry, I find it next to impossible to be anything but myself. I probably couldn't change if I wanted to.
To be honest, I was worried that my background might get in the way. Obviously our backgrounds are a hurdle we're both going to jump if this is going anywhere. And I would like it to go somewhere.
