(500) Days of Summer
McKenzie: So do you have a boyfriend?
Summer: No.
McKenzie: Why not?
Summer: Because I don’t want one.
McKenzie: Come on; I don’t believe that.
Summer: You don’t believe that a woman could enjoy being free and independent?
McKenzie: Are you a lesbian?
Summer: No I’m not a lesbian. I just, don’t feel comfortable being anyone’s girlfriend. I don’t actually feel comfortable being anyone’s anything.
McKenzie: I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Summer: Really?
McKenzie: Nope.
Summer: Ok, let me break it down for you–
McKenzie: Break it down!
Summer: Ok. I, like being on my own. I think relationships are messy and people’s feelings get hurt. Who needs it? We’re young, we live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world; might as well have fun while we can and, save the serious stuff for later.
McKenzie: You’re a dude. She’s a dude!
Tom: Ok but wait–wait. What happens, if you fall in love?
Summer: You don’t believe that, do you?
Tom: It’s love, it’s not Santa Claus.
Summer: I just wanna tell you..that I'm not really looking.. for anything.. serious.. Is that okay?
Tom: Yeah.
Summer: Because some people kind of freak out when they hear that.
Tom: No, not me.
Summer: You sure?
Tom: Yeah, like casual, right? take it slow.
Summer: Right.
Tom: I'm not going anywhere till you tell me what's going on.
Summer: Nothing's going on. We're just..
Tom: What? We're just what?
Summer: We're just friends.
Tom: No! Don't pull that with me! Don't even try to. This is not how you treat your friend. Kissing in the copy room? Holding hands in lKEA? Shower sex? Come on! Friends, my balls!
Summer: I like you, Tom. I just don't want a relationship.
Tom: well, you're not the only one that gets a say in this! I do too! And I say we're a couple, goddamn it!
Summer: I think we should stop seeing each other.
Tom: Just like that?
Summer: I mean this thing. What are we doing? I mean, is this normal?
Tom: I dont know, I dont care. I'm happy, aren't you happy?
Summer: All we do was argue.
Tom: That is bullshit.
Tom: So why did you dance with me?
Summer: Because I wanted to.
Tom: You just do what you want, don't you? You never wanted to be anybody's girlfriend and now you're somebody's wife.
Summer: Suprised me too.
Tom: I don't think I'll ever understand that. I mean, it doesn't make sense.
Summer: It just happened.
Tom: Right, but that's what I don't understand. What just happened?
Summer: I just.. I just woke up one day, and I knew.
Tom: Knew what?
Summer: What I was never sure of you.
