How many girlfriends or boyfriends have you had?

这个是简单的问题吗？…真的是….
Allen? Do you need my hands? Here, I can help you count.
You can borrow my fingers if you want. No, no, no, no, no.

Five, like three, 3个，I won’t say specific number, but it’s less than 10. Two, one and a half. And a half? Who is the half? So one official one and the other one was ambiguous. I would say 2 point 5.

真的吗？真的。 Like maybe 1? But it doesn’t really count. I was in the 9th grade, so… Okay, that counts. Who broke up with who? Did he break up with you? Yes! Sorry!
