So, you're going to drop out, then?

Man                 : So, you're going to drop out, then?

Woman            : Why would I want to do that?

Man                 : I thought he proposed to you.

Woman            : You weren't listening! Not yet! But I can tell he'll do it Friday night. He's invited me to this really romantic restaurant and said it's a special occasion.

Man                 : That's what I mean! You're not going to turn him down, are you?

Woman            : Why would I? We've been together for nearly three years, we're both seniors and he's got himself a well-paid job at a reputable firm already.

Man                 : But isn't it a woman's job to stay at home and raise a family?

Woman            : What century do you live in? I'm sure Paul expects me to do more than just stay home and spend his money.

Man                 : That's not exactly what I said! I grew up in a family of five. My mom wasn't just sitting on her rear-end spending my dad's money.

Woman            : Whoha! Cool it! I wasn't accusing your mother of anything but I'm not exactly pregnant either.

Man                 : Yeah! Right!
