Strawberries It Is

This happened to a couple where they try to talk about the future of their relationship.

"Hear me out.  I know it's gonna be hard for us to be away from each other.  But it's like, when i was four, I decides that strawberries were my favourite fruit.  So i ate them with everything.  I ate them in cereal, I ate them on sandwiches, I put them in Spaghetti... I had to have them with every meal.  And one day mom just lost it and she said I couldn't have any more until I ate some other fruit too.  And you know what, I'm glad i did.  Because strawberries are totally still my favourite, but... I wouldn't know that for sure if I hadn't tried all that other stuff."

"Well, strawberries are my favourite too.  What exactly are you saying?"

"I'm just saying that...wherever you are, if you happen to see a kiwi, or you know, a pineapple or something that looks good, maybe you should try it.  Just to see what it's like.  Because if all you're ever had is strawberries, how do you really know you like them best?

"And the thought of me...trying other fruit doesn't bother you at all?"

"Maybe a little but I think it could be good for you.  For us."

"What if I don't want to try anything else?  What if the thought of anything beside strawberries make me get the pre-hurling taste in my mouth?  I mean, who know where some of that stuff even comes from.  It could be rotten in the middle.  It could be covered in pesticide from some third world country."

"Well, I'm not saying buy if off the street."

"Wait, just so I'm clear, we're not talking about actual fruit right now, are we?"

"I'm not sure anymore.  Metaphors are confusing."

:) Happy reading.  I hope I'm not confusing you too.
