Jess: I told her I loved her.
Luke: Wow! What did she say?
Jess: Nothing.
Luke: What, you just said it and walked away?
Jess: No. I got in my car and left.
Jess: I drove.
Luke: You didn't want stick around to see what she said?
Jess: No. And obviously, she had nothing to say.
Luke: How do you know?
Jess: She could have contacted me anytime in the last three months, but she didn't.
Luke: What are you talking about? You change your phone number weekly.
Jess: [Scoffs] The ball was in her court.
Luke: Oh, Jess, come on. You did this completely wrong. Open two-way communication is the foundation of love, and you cut that off. I had this friend -- let's call him Phillip -- who thought expressing intimacy was a favor to his partner, but expressions of intimacy should be given freely and frequently. He loved Judy, but he used his love as a bargaining tool.
Jess: Who the hell is Judy?
Luke: Phillip's wife. We call her Judy.
Jess: I wasn't bargaining.
Luke: You were bargaining. You had expectations out of line with what you deserved. You don't nurture.
Jess: Where are you getting this junk?
Luke: Life. I've lived.
Jess: What, in a Bette Midler movie?
