和老外聊天的地道口语第44期:我可不想做电灯泡（在线收听）

M: Hey, Ann, I am really sorry about last night. I shouldn't have said those things to you.

A: I am sorry too. I know we've been talking about this beach trip for a while. I should have told Bob I was busy this weekend.

M: don't be silly. You guys should spend as much time together as you can. Besides we can go to the beach anytime.

A: thanks for understanding.

M: well that's what being friends is about, isn't it?

A: hey, what if the three of us go to the beach together? Besides, you and Bob haven't seen each other for a while. I don't want my best friend and my boyfriend to be complete strangers.

M: Nah, I wouldn't worry about that. But I don't want to be the third wheel. You two should have some quiet time to yourselves.

A: I know Bob won't mind. You can bring a date, like that guy from the bar you keep talking about.

M: maybe…I'll think about it.

A: well, I think you should come and have some fun. Besides you never know maybe he likes you as well. You should at least try.
嘿,安,昨天晚上真的不好意思,我不应该说那些话的.

我也很不好意思.我们一直在说要去海滩度假,我当时就应该告诉鲍勃我这周末忙,已经有安排了.

别傻了,你们两个能在一起多待一会就应该多待一会儿.而且,咱们两个什么时候去海滩都可以啊.

谢谢你的理解.

别客气,朋友就是要互相理解,不是吗?

嘿,你说我们三个一起去海滩怎么样?况且你和鲍勃很久没见面了,我不想我最好的朋友和我的男朋友成为完全的陌生人.

我倒不担心这个,我也不想当你们两个人的电灯泡,我觉得你们两个应该好好享受一下二人时光才是.

我知道鲍勃不会介意的.你可以带一个伴儿,那个你一直说的酒吧男怎么样?

可能吧,我会考虑一下.

我觉得你应该来,开心地玩一玩.而且不然你怎么知道他是不是也喜欢你呢,最起码应该试一下.
