You Deserve a Lover (Tu mérites un amour)

Excuse me.

- Looking for someone? - My friend.

Who?

Hello.

You OK?

Why are you here?

Are you serious? What are you doing here?

- Why are you here? - I just...

Why don't you pick up? Why block me?

I just blocked you, OK?

Who were you with?

No way!

- Can you come down? - Sure.

Don't do this.

I can't get an answer out of you.

You're seeing someone else.

Why didn't you say so?

There isn't anyone else!

I knew your needing a break was a load of bullshit.

You're incapable of being alone. Totally incapable!

She's nothing to me.

Give me my headphones back.

Shut up.

- Can we talk? - Sure.

It only lasted 3 months. I figured him out.

- You're an ex? - Yes.

An ex of his, OK.

It didn't work out. We're too different.

He felt bad yesterday.

I was a shoulder to cry on.

Or a fuck buddy.

None of your business. You two split up.

He moved out.

Didn't he?

Not your business.

You came here!

Yeah, because he wasn't picking up and I was worried.

He was talking about suicide.

I dug around and found your address.

I wanted to see if he was playing me.

I'm not a homewrecker.

He was sad, and I was there for him.

- What happened yesterday? - We talked.

And had sex?

None of your business! I don't owe you an explanation.

Did you fuck?

Well?

Tell me! A shoulder to cry on, huh?

Don't come here and make a scene.

I've got to go.

A scene? I was with him a year.

Can I go? Sort this out with him.

I've a right to know.

Yeah, but ask him.

You and I aren't together.

Are you done? Can I go get ready?

Thanks.

Good job!

- You happy? - Get lost before I hit you.

What a joke!

Give me a break. I'm gonna fucking hit you.

Seriously! You fucking jerk.

YOU DESERVE A LOVER

- That isn't love. - What is it?

It isn't love. You're messed up.

What is it?

Love isn't being cheated on, putting up with shit,

being with a liar,

a cheat,

a scumbag like him.

You like beating yourself up.

Forget about it.

I can't forget about it.

I've been through it too, only it was worse.

He was 60, super ugly and fat. He cheated on me,

stopped touching me then dumped me.

How d'you get over that?

You go near anything under 60, even 59 and a half,

you've no confidence coz a 60-year-old didn't want you.

It's awful, just awful.

I wished the worst for him.

Same here. I hope he dies.

I wanted him dead

but figured that was too easy.

Then I really hoped he'd get some very slow illness

and not be able to have sex and stuff.

Or something gross,

you know...

like that Ukrainian politician

who had some virus and his head swelled up.

I can't get it out of my head.

Babe, it isn't love, it's your ego.

The fact is, we feel...

hurt when we get rejected.

And you feel hurt when you're rejected because

it's your ego, babe. You'll get over it.

Give it two weeks. I'll show you how I was two weeks

after the old guy.

This girl is right!

Your old-school songs suck!

Be grateful! You're getting a free show.

I don't come cheap either. I've upped my fees.

I know very well

What you say about me

To your buddies

When I'm not around

I don't care

It don't get to me

I'm telling you

You're gonna pay!

It's too late for crying, I'm tired of your illusory love

I don't wanna waste my time

Coz you're losing your mind

Quit promising me

Your undying love and marriage

Myriam's sleeping.

Why did you bring her here?

Why are you here?

What d'you expect me to say?

It's me.

- It isn't you. - Don't.

Why are you doing this?

You ruin everything.

Why'd you come here?

Why is she here? I didn't want to see this.

You disgust me.

You can't come barging in here.

Break it off.

Break off what? This isn't the time or place.

Don't you get it? You can't just show up here.

Who d'you think you are?

Stop, or I'll make your life hell.

- Stop fucking around. - Keep it down.

Stop your...

Just fucking stop.

I won't let this go.

OK, got it. Understood.

- You OK? - Yeah, fine.

Why are you here?

I wanted to see you.

Why?

Because I miss you.

My shoulders ache.

You're doing all right.

Like I have a choice.

Look...

I haven't replaced you or anything.

I'm just not coping right now.

So I can't cope with you.

And that girl, she was like a band-aid.

Anyway...

I know you need time, and I guess I do too.

I'm gonna make the most of it.

I'm off to Bolivia for three weeks.

Yeah?

Treating yourself to a trip?

It's just that...

I think it's what I need.

I need to be on my own...

to figure myself out.

Looking out for number one.

Don't.

Is this it then? Not even a goodbye?

Goodbye! What d'you expect?

How d'you want me to say goodbye?

Give me a kiss.

A kiss?

You come kiss me. My back hurts.

Have a good trip!

Get your vaccines.

Go on.

I miss you.

I need this.

What?

I need you.

You're all skinny.

- Have you stopped eating? - Yeah.

I've lost my appetite.

You're still beautiful.

Don't cry.

I'm just tired.

I should be crying, not you.

Yeah?

I've lost something.

It's what you wanted.

- You think I wanted this? - Yeah, kind of.

This isn't like before. What's the point?

I can't stop myself.

Don't.

You're leaving.

And this'll come back.

Stop.

- But I want you. - I don't feel like it.

Swear you don't.

It's pointless.

I mean it. Besides, I have an infection.

I don't care.

It hurts though.

I love it.

You love infections?
