Hi. I like your profile text.
B&B2
Thank you. I saw yours too…
but there’s not much there,
could you tell me more about yourself?
B&B1
Well I would prefer to let you get to know me gradually.
I’ll be happy to tell you more if you’ll go out with me.
B&B2
Well, what do you look like?
You know I can’t really tell with that bag over your head.
B&B1
Oh, I’m really attractive, Trust me. I wouldn’t lie.
B&B2
Well, I’d like to have an idea if I’m
attracted before committing to a date.
B&B1
You’ll know that when we go out.
When we leave the boxes and bags at home.
Don’t worry. Everyone says I’m really good looking.B&B2
(hesitating)
Well…I also need to know enough about you
to feel safe going out with you.
Wow, maybe you’re being paranoid.
Don’t you want to know what I look like?
B&B1
Oh, that doesn’t matter to me.
I’m interested in what’s on the inside.
B&B2
Oh, so you can be attracted to just about anyone,
no matter what they look like?
B&B1
Pretty much.
B&B2
Then how would I ever feel special?
B&B1
Special. Well that comes from the inside.
I don’t need to see your face or your body to
know I’m attracted to you. I like the text on
your box well enough.
B&B2
Okay, but I am not physically attracted to text.
I have to be attracted physically to pursue anything
romantic, and I don’t seem to have control over who
I’m attracted to. It just happens or it doesn’t.
None of the other information matters,
if I’m not going to be attracted.
That’s why I need to see you somehow, first.
I know I am attracted to certain things,
physically, and I’d like to be able to see you,
so I can gauge that before we spend much
more time with this…Could you take the box and bag off?
B&B1
I’ve already told you I’m attractive.
If you don’t believe me, you must have trust issues.
I can’t get involved with someone who’s like that.
I deserve better.
B&B1
But I don’t know you.
I don’t know if I can believe what you say–
you’re a virtual stranger to me.
B&B2
I can see that not only do you have trust issues,
but you’re just shallow and superficial.
Now wait just a minute! That’s not fair.
You don’t even know me.
Forget it, you shallow bitch.
