PE 2/7 Can Men and Women Just Be Friends?

Well, didn't she tell you from the get-go that she wants to just be friends? I think she’s made herself clear about your relationship.
* from the get-go: from the beginning of something
ex> After I bought my new car, I used only premium gasoline right from the get-go.

Easy does it, Noah. If you love spending time with her, then why does it matter if you are just friends? You’re still going to hang out.
* easy does it: to go slowly and cautiously
ex> Don’t run too fast at the beginning of a race – easy does it is my strategy.

I guess I’m afraid if she meets another guy, I’ll be crushed and have a hard time getting over it.
* be crushed: to have one’s feelings hurt badly; be heartbroken
ex> When my parents got divorced, I was crushed.

I see. Jealousy’s rearing its ugly head!
* rear its ugly head: to suddenly appear after being hidden
ex> When love rears its ugly head, nothing else matters to the people involved.

Well, it does strikes a chord with me. To tell you the truth, I don’t know if men and women can just be best friends.
* strike a chord: to remain one of something; find something familiar
ex> The book on Buddhism struck such a chord with me that I changed my major to religious studies.
ex> The paintings of Van Gogh strike a chord with people who enjoy traveling in France.
