"Look at this gorgeous girl!

What a body!"

"I said:
Where? Whom are you

talking about?"

"Apparently there was a girl standing

next to the young man..."

"Do you realize that, my Boaz?

I simply had not seen her!"

"She just didn't exist for me!"

"I lowered my head in shame.

My life is contemptible, my Boaz"

"My life is not fair"

"Yesterday is was my birthday"

"I invited some friends for

coffee and cake"

"But I didn't tell them

why I invited them"

"I sat there, in my house, next

to the big plant..."

"And I let myself be carried away by the

pointless, light chit-chat of my friends"

"I thought... how nice it'd be

if you too were there"

"I don't know why...

but this picture..."

"You sitting in my white armchair,

just the two of us in the room"

"Your bright, watery eyes looking

at me intensely"

"This picture makes me very emotional"

(Boaz! Coming to eat?)

"I can hardly stop myself

from touching..."

"...your beautiful face,

your hair, your arms..."

"I think of your girlfriend, who

surely enjoys your arms"

"And I feel a deep pain

from my groins to my throat"

"This afternoon I went for a walk,

trying to put my feelings in order"

"Suddenly, I saw you on a bus"

"I think it was bus line 25"

"You were sitting by the bus window,

oblivious, care-free"

"I'm scared to say this out loud,

but I know..."

"...that I'm deeply in love with you!"

Don't you like the food?

How come? I like it!

- What's going on with you?

- What?

Boaz?

You shouldn't get mad at me...

I'm not your mother

I can't believe that this

is happening to me!

Ori has dumped me.

He simply left me.

He's going to Thailand, alone

He's going scubadiving with just a

rucksack and a bandana on this head

Milk... Croutons for soup...

To run away like that!!

Without a warning...

Do you know how long

they were together?

How should I know that?

How long are we together?

Since the first time that I saw you

at Dr. Kupperschmidt's

Do you want something else?

Leave it. I'll go to do the shopping

I do feel sorry for her, but

it's also her fault... some how

- Her fault?

- She should had realized it

He woke up one morning, bought a

plane ticket and left...

I'm sorry to disturb you.

Have you finished with the book?

- No, I still need it

- I meant Plato's "Symposium"

Ah... that's not mine...

I thought your were majoring

in Classical Studies...

- No, Semitic languages

- Ah... right!

Anyway, I recommend you to

read the "Symposium"

Thanks, I've read it already

Wisdom is one of the most beautiful things

and Eros is in love with beautiful things

Hence, Eros is a philosopher, a lover of

Wisdom (=Symposium, 204b)

I've taken a supplementary course
