much as I love you."

2-dimensional, beer-guzzling frat boy?
Jen: It's not--it's not even that anymore. And it's not Dawson, is it? You and I used to operate like this perfect
clockwork. You knew how I took my coffee, I knew how you liked
your toast. I mean, what happened to those people?

are not sharing the details?
