When you're trying to make a conversation with a girl/guy you met recently, either A) online B) via text message or C) in person, and she/he responds to any of your questions with blank stares, one letter text messages using the words: oh, cool, or nice, or nothing at all until you have to try to change the subject.
當你試著和最近的約會對象交談時,網(wǎng)聊、發(fā)短信或者面談,對你提出的問題,對方總回饋給你一個茫然的眼神、或者超級簡略的短信(哦、酷、好、沒什么),直到你試著換一個話題。
