Amanda:  Hey! Hey! Hey! Jason! Here! Oh my God! Sit down! Lay down, sit down, whatever.

Jason:  Oh, OK. Yeah.

Amanda:  Here. How’s it going?

Jason:  Uh, good.

Amanda:  I was just thinking about you…like, a lot.

Jason:  I haven’t seen you for a while. What’s up?

Amanda:  Not much. Do you want…do have somewhere to be or can you have a drink with me and some dinner and maybe hang out?

Jason:  I have to me somewhere in a minute, but I can hang out for a little bit, yeah.

Amanda:  A minute?

Jason:  Well, I mean, just in a little while, a few minutes.

Amanda:  OK. You look great because that coat is just very slimming and form-fitting. You look like you’ve been working out and stuff.

Jason:  I thought it was very “Thriller.”

Amanda:  Yeah, I can see that. Yeah. And the pants look great on you. I can see the definition in your legs.

Jason:  What are you doing here just hanging out on a…

Amanda:  You know. Just kind of thinking.

Jason:  Oh OK.

Amanda:  Kind of alone with my thoughts, so I thought I’d enjoy a pint and kind of take in the view and just clear my mind.

Jason:  That’s good. People don’t slow down enough to clear their minds.

Amanda:  I completely agree. Because there’s so much going on and you’re usually with somebody and how often are you by yourself?

Jason:  Totally. Just in the middle of the day…

Amanda:  Though I would totally pick hanging out with you over being by myself.

Jason:  Wow, thanks.

Amanda:  Just FYI. I wanted to put that out there. You look really good. Your hair is really thick today.

Jason:  Oh, wow. Thanks. That’s awesome. I worry about that.

Amanda:  You shouldn’t. Ever.

Jason:  I’ll grab a beer. I’ll be right back.

Amanda:  OK. Great. Hurry, OK?

Discussion

Amanda is sitting at an outdoor table at a restaurant when Jason walks by. She flags him down and he says he can stay for a few minutes.

Amanda compliments everything from Jason’s hair to his jacket to his muscles. He laughs nervously because he’s not sure what’s going on.

Do you have any idea what’s going on? Is Amanda being nice or does she have an axe to grind? Should Amanda leave Mason for Jason? Is it wrong of her to be so flirty with him while she and Mason are still together?

On one hand, I really dont like this latest development about amanda. She totally has an axe to grind ! oh God .. please help jason – he's a nice guy – just dont want to see him hurt again. 

But on the other hand, most women would do the same, especially when they know that there are others who would so readily eager to entertain them … 

Anyway, I hope jason wont fall this trick,  not again.

By saying those flirty words to Jason, Amanda is sure has an axe to grind to Jason. She's trying to get to his attention because she knows he liked her so much.I'm not sure whether she has a feeling for Jason sincerely or she's just feeling lonely because her relationship is in trouble.

Come on Amanda, grow up! work out your relationship first with Mason. If you are over with Mason, then you can flirt with someone else.

hhhhhhehehea I'm fallen for men's muscles as well, but I don't like form-fitting clothes for guys at all. They don't fit them. But on the contrary for girls.

               Take care Jason from Amanda .She is flirty with you when she saw your muscles.I think she would flirty with Mark Henery  the world's strongest man if she saw his muscles.we can get from this lesson that men should hide there muscles in additional to the great words in the lesson.
