Well, You Must Be

You look good, very fashionable.

How long did you spend getting your hair to look just right?

I really like your attention to color choice.

We’ve never really talked about it, but…

Well, you must be.

Oh, so cool, you play music!

I’ve always wanted to learn piano; you look like a pianist.

You’re passion shows in how you play.

I would never ask about it, but…

Well, you must be.

You like art? I’ve always appreciated it too.

The attention you give to each of the paintings is really stunning.

There’s something special about the way you see the world.

I wouldn’t know much about it, but…

Well, you must be.

Which sport did you say you play?

Oh, no offense, but isn’t that kind of more of a girl thing?

I mean it’s not like football. Now, that’s a tough sport.

I’d never say it to your face, but…

Well, you must be.

It was really nice getting coffee.

You listen so well, it’s not like talking to other guys, seriously.

I could sit here for hours talking to you; it’s so relaxed.

It’s not kind to ask if you didn’t say, but…

Well, you must be.
