|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I saw a kid with boogers caked on his nose at the grocery store and his parents weren't doing anything about it.
Listener: That's disgusting. What kind of parent lets their child run around like that.
Speaker: I don't know, I had a really hard time finishing my grocery list after I saw that.

Your instruction here | Speaker: Last weekend I went car shopping at my local BMW dealership and saw someone leaving in a brand new i8! I want that car so bad!
Listener: Sweet! Wouldn't mind one myself. What do they cost new?
Speaker: Way more than I can afford. After taxes and everything you are looking at around $150K! I wish I was the guy that had just bought it!

|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Many years ago, I fell in love with a beautiful woman with whom I was totally entranced. We were together for about three months, then she suddenly cut things off. She had told me she loved me. But in our final conversation, she denied ever having said so.
Listener: That is really mean. I am sorry.
Speaker: It was a long time ago. It took a long time to get over her, though. I've never again been as deeply in love as I was with her.
Listener: That is so sad. Have you seen or heard from her again?
Speaker: No, never. I
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My little sister has to sleep in my room this week while we have company over.
Listener: Do you think she will keep you awake? How old is she?

Listener: Maybe you can hide some of your things, or put them in a safe place.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I lost my cat three months ago. I found her sitting on the porch yesterday. I thought for sure I would never see her again.
Listener: That is so amazing. Animals have an amazing ability to find their way home. I wonder if it was out there having a Homeward Bound style adventure.
Speaker: I have no idea where or what she was up to. I couldnt believe it when I saw here there.
Listener: That is so great, I'm glad you got your little friend back.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: A friend of mine from childhood just told me he got in early on Google stock and is a multi-millionaire.
Listener: Oh that would kill to see. Maybe he will hook you up.
Speaker: I don't think so we haven't really stayed in touch. I didn't even know he knew anything about stocks.

|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I found some photos of my father from when he was my age.

Listener: A little homesick? Are you traveling for vacation or for work?
Speaker: Im on vacation. The place Im staying at is really empty so Im just thinking of home a lot.
Listener: I understand how you feel. Maybe its time to change locations?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My neighbor killed his wife, a year ago. I would sleep during that period of time. I was shocked and afraid.
Listener: Oh my god, that is terrible. Has it affected you knowing you slept through that kind of event right next door?

Speaker: Yes, glad you agree....I was an idiot and mistook a deadly combo of pity and infatuation for love...but now I know what to avoid and what I want so I'm thankful
Listener: that's great to hear! I hope you will meet your true love soon! I believe when you do you will now right away. When i met my husband i knew right away he is the one. such a strange feeling. But we've been married for 5 years now and still crazy about each other
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I tried finishing my application for online college classes today because I need the financial aid, and I found out I don't have enough time to complete the requirements.
Listener: Oh no! Can you ask for an extension? Sometimes they'll be quite accommodating.
Speaker: I haven't called and asked yet, I have a lot of steps I need to complete for successful enrollment. Some of the steps seem to require mailed-in information rather than electronically sent.
Listener: That seems strange in this day and age. I thought everything could be done online. Perhaps you could hand deliver those parts.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I cant stop thinking of my vacation coming up. Im ready to just go.
Listener: Good. Where are you going?
Speaker: Im doing a three month trip in Europe. Im getting antsy to get started.
Listener: I understand. Have a good trip. Are you traveling alone?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I robbed my grand parents once because of my addiction to drugs. They didn't notice but I feel bad about it.
Listener: Now that is something I would imagine is hard to deal with. I hope you are in a better place.
Speaker: I still have issues with my addiction. I didn't get rid of it even with help. It is a terrible thing to leave with.
Listener: You just have to keep working at it.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I'm scared to show love or get close in a relationship. I once mistook pity and infatuation for love and ended up being miserable. Am I gonna let that happen again? Hell no
Listener: Oh that's terrible. I wouldn't shut it all out though, you could miss out on someone great.
Speaker: Not all of it of course, you're right. But she's gotta bring something to the table before I go all in...can't deal with that damaged goods crap anymore
Listener: Yeah you are right. Better to take things slow and figure out what they are all about first.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I loaned my friend some money when she was having financial troubles.
Listener: That's really kind of you. Not everyone can or will do that. I do hope she pays you back!
Speaker: Yes I hope she does too.
Listener: I'm sure! It's always nice to help someone in need, but you do hope they'll do the right thing by you when possible.
Speaker: Yes, if not, it's okay, I'll understand.
Listener: You're obviously a very good person and I'm sure your friend knows that - she'll repay you when she can.
Speaker: Yes I definitely trust her to.
Listener: Then you'll be fine :)
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I put a deposit down on a dog, but it died before I could pick it up. I was so sad.
Listener: That's pretty heavy. I hope that doesn't discourage you from trying again in the future, especially with a rescue dog or something in that area. If you don't mind me asking, what happened?
Speaker: It got distemper and couldn't shake it. I will buy another one some day. I think I need a little time though.
Listener: I had never heard of that before. That sounds like tragic timing. And you're right, I probably shouldn't have brought up getting another one so soon, it just sounded like you'd be a good owner, since you seem like you care so much. It makes sense for you to not rush right back into it.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My brother is starting his first semester at the college I wanted to go to but could never get into. I am very happy for him. He was scared to accept the offer at first because he thought he'd hurt my feelings. I told him that was crazy!
Listener: That is so great that he was able to go. I had the same problem as you, but I started at community college when I was 26 and finished at a 4 year college when I was 32. It is never too late for you to go.
Speaker: Oh, I am! I'm like you, except I did community college all wrong. I stuck around in there wasting time, feeling sorry for myself, taking out student loans for no reason. Eventually got on the right track and got into a college, and will graduate at 28. My brother just graduated at 34. Cheers to you guys. Older students are cool
Listener: They are the best. I think it is good to go later, because you know what you want more and don't waste time and money.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I am living on my own now.
Listener: Awesome. Is it the first ime?
Speaker: Yes but when I get home from work I have no one to talk to
Listener: Maybe you will a friend soon. Or even meet a nice guy.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My mother was just recently diagnosed with cancer.
Listener: That's horrible. Is it treatable?
Speaker: It is, I had her move in with me so I could look after her
Listener: I'm praying that she will be fully healed, and that you will take good care of her.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I'm having a difficult time doing even basic tasks for myself due to anxiety. But i'm hopeful that something good will happen for me. I feel bad about complaining about anxiety after finding out your mother is ill.
Listener: Everyone in life has problems, do not feel bad for sharing yours I hope it gets better for you.
Speaker: Thank you, that means a lot to me.
Listener: You are welcome, I am glad I can put you in a better mood.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I just got approval for a home loan!
Listener: That's fantastic! It must be a good day for you.

Listener: I'm sure you were pretty nervous after you applied.
Speaker: A fair bit. I've been saving for a long time.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My work is sending me on a business trip, but I'm really nervous about getting on the plane.
Listener: A little anxious? Have you ever flown on a plane before?
Speaker: I have. I fly a lot, actually. I just really really hate it. I get so worried and afraid. Hopefully the time will pass quickly.
Listener: I'm sure you'll be fine. Statistically its safer than driving.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I ordered a new fishing reel. I can't wait for it to come in the mail.
Listener: That sounds cool. Do you go fishing a lot?
Speaker: I've been getting back into it. I'm near the coast so its fun to go.
Listener: My dad really enjoyed fishing. I think I'd like the peace and quiet of it.
Speaker: ITs pretty quiet. Its relaxing, and the sunrise on the water is always beautiful.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I like to encourage my peers
Listener: thats great it always nice to be encourage. Really like it when my co workers do it
Speaker: I do too. I could not wait for the announcement. They are so well deserving.
Listener: glad to hear it.
Speaker: I tried to put in a good word for them. She had no idea she was even nominated.
Listener: you are such a nice person. Hopefully you helped.
Speaker: SHe ended up getting the job and it really lifted her spirits!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: got pulled over last night for going 25mph over the speed limit.
Listener: That is a bummer. On the bright side you probably won't do that again!
Speaker: that's for sure was so nervous i would lose my license. But he lowered it down to 5 mph now all i have to do is pay a fine.
Listener: That is awesome! It is nice to know people can be fair!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My wife just celebrated her one year anniversary at her business
Listener: How awesome! She must be proud of herself! Where does she work?

Listener: Nice, what job did you apply for?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: This last Saturday, I was waiting in the line for the official to sign my driving license documents at DPS. I don't know how, but i suddenly fell to the ground as if my legs stopped working. It was so embarrassing as there were many people
Listener: These people are not people you see everyday. I wouldnt worry about it
Speaker: You are right, but still i felt like being humiliated in front of these people. Emotional sting would not let me stand still as if nothing happened
Listener: Watch some youtube videos of other peoples misfortunes so you can forget about yours quickly!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I was invited to a party last week to a pretty shady area.
Listener: Why would anyone make a party in a shady area? Was it your friend's party?
Speaker: It was a work friend, I was not sure if I should go or not for fear of my safety
Listener: Probably it is just the theme of his party. He wanted to have some fun in the form of cautious excitement
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My friends shocked me by throwing me a birthday celebration. I had no idea about it until it happened.
Listener: Awe. That is soo sweet. You have some really good friends
Speaker: Yeah, we have all known each other for over 10 years. We all live close to each other.

Your instruction here | Speaker: It was for science but I had notes i had brought.
Listener: Thats not right. How did you feel?

Listener: That's good. How did you do?
Speaker: I got a A! the highest score in the class.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My grandma died. I am so sad.
Listener: Im sorry to hear that. Was it from age or complications?

|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Went back to my old town. Met a lot of my friens from childhood

Listener: That's a great feeling. Knowing you *can* go home again ;-) Hopefully they can come visit you, too!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My friend adopted a really elderly dog. I'm so proud of her.
Listener: Oh that's nice! Most people don't adopt older dogs
Speaker: Yea, they don't. They're probably afraid of loss and of course, the medical bills.
Listener: Mostly medical. But, also that you most likely won't have long to make a bond, play, etc. It would be mostly care
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I accidentally left a very important document at my house that I needed at work. It made me look foolish in front of my boss when I didn't have it :(
Listener: Oh no. Did you explain it to him?
Speaker: I did. He laughed it off, but it makes people believe you aren't up to the task. So, it's not a good thing
Listener: You'll be more careful next time. Everyone makes mistakes.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I had to leave my dog at the vet for a week since I've been traveling. It's weird not having him with me
Listener: Why do you usually bring him along?

Listener: How far away was it?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I can no longer stand christmas, because once when i was thirteen I had been told I would be getting a playstation. Christmas came and I never got it.
Listener: Oh man! I'm so sorry! Is there any part of the season you can still enjoy?
Speaker: Not christmas no, New years is still decent for me. Everytime I think of christmas my mind just goes red.
Listener: Do your parents feel terrible about that? (Not that you want them to....I just imagine they'd be pretty devastated to know that's why a holiday was ruined for you.) On the other hand -- I LOVE New Years!
Speaker: I have never told them about how I feel about that christmas day.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I am mad at my friend Eric because he lied to me

Your instruction here | Speaker: MY WIFE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
Listener: Why is she the love of your life?
Speaker: Because she completes me all the way.
Listener: How does she complete you?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I watched IT when I was only six years old.
Listener: Were you scared?
Speaker: It was the worst experience of my life. I still can not watch movies like that.
Listener: What movies do you enjoy instead?
Speaker: I love comedy shows.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I used to be that way too. One thing to think about that might help is even if you do look stupid for a second nobody is going to remember 10 minutes from then. Another thing that helped me was thinking about how good it felt if a stranger started talking with me in public for a 2-5 minute conversation and how it didnt upset me or make them look stupid so I shouldnt look stupid if I did the same thing.
Listener: That's true... the anxiety goes away immediately afterwards!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: my girlfriend planned a surprise party i was not aware of
Listener: That is nice of her, did you have fun?

|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Hmm.. I think i'm going to catch up on the expanse
Listener: oh yea.. whats that?
Speaker: I recommend you check it out, its a great show.
Listener: Oh nice. where can I find it? Netflix?
Speaker: If you have prime video its on there for free.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My girlfriend broke up with me and i am quite upset
Listener: I'm sorry to hear that. How long were you together?
Speaker: just about 2 years. I hope I can get her back.
Listener: Did you do something to cause the breakup?
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I lost over £200 on public transport about 3 years ago!
Listener: Oh no! That's a lot of money. Did you get any of it back?
Speaker: No! I lost the lot! It was my own fault for being so silly and leaving my wallet out when unpacking my bag!
Listener: Doesn't give anyone the right to steal it, tho'. I'm so sorry - how awful for you. I hope they had a horrible time when they tried to spend it!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: It's raining really loud! I keep looking outside hoping it doesn't get much worse. We're under a tornado watch right now.
Listener: Oh geez, stay safe! Tornadoes are one of those weird things for me. They sort of scare me but before they happen and its raining yet still outside I love going out to see whats happening.
Speaker: Yeah, I really like that line when the weather is "interesting" but it stops right before "you lose electricity" or "you get a tornado"
Listener: hahaha, I dont know if people today would rather lose electricity or get a tornado. Either way I hope you stay safe and if a tornado does come you dont take any damage!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Although I'm having a difficult time in life right now, and it seems I have been having a difficult time for a while... I still have faith that God will provide for me a blessing.
Listener: It is important to have a focus on something positive.
Speaker: Yes, I agree. I hope that my faith isn't wrong though and I get stuck in a worst situation. I would really just like to see some of God's goodness in my life.
Listener: Nothing in life is certain, the only control you have is to decide what to do with the time that has been given to you.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: The girls at work shocked me with a baby shower when I was pregnant with my first kid.
Listener: That must mean they think you're a pretty cool person! People usually don't go through that kind of effort unless they think you're worth it and deserve it. So, kudos to you for having that kind of effect on others!
Speaker: Those were a great group of ladies I worked with.
Listener: Oh, you don't work with them anymore? Or maybe it was because you decided to be a stay-at-home mother?
Speaker: My first child is 12 now so it was quite some time ago.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Went to trim my beard today. Trimmed a little too much on one side, had to even it out on the other. Did that like four times on accident, and now I trimmed my beard so much more than I wanted to, and I look dumb.
Listener: You may need to go to the barber shop!
Speaker: Yeah, I guess I should stop trying to do it on my own. I hate spending money on that stuff though. If I could give myself a haircut, I would, so I didn't have to spend money on that either. But that probably wouldn't be a good idea..
Listener: The barber shop is totally worth it. They do such a good job.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: I accidentally lost my patient's necklace before her surgery when I was in nursing school.
Listener: That's terrible! I hope it didn't end up inside them?
Speaker: No, I didn't lose it in their body, I just lost it when she gave it to me to hold before we went into surgery.
Listener: Okay well that's good at least. I hope you find it soon!
Speaker: Well it was almost 10 years ago and still haven't.
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My best friend didn't call me to invite me on his road trip last weekend. I have no idea why he didn't ask it I wanted to go.
Listener: Well that was rude, did you confront him?
Speaker: No yet, I don't really know what to say to him. I feel pretty down about it.
Listener: I would ask him how it went and casually say "I would have gone had you asked".
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My life is just great right now.
Listener: That's awesome! You're really lucky.
Speaker: Thanks I know! There's nothing more I could even ask for at this point.
Listener: I'm sure it took a lot of hard work to get to that point!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: My car was parked on the street last night and someone hit it. They didn't even leave a note
Listener: Oh man! That sucks! Did anyone happen to see it?
Speaker: Not that I've spoken to yet. Now my insurance is trying to claim it as an at fault accident. I'm so mad!
Listener: I am sorry you have to deal with that. What a pain!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: So this month we're finishing refinancing student loans, buying a house, and my wife just got another job.
Listener: Congratulations! That sounds like a lot of great news in one month!
Speaker: Yeah it's gonna be a good thing if it all works out.
Listener: I really hope it does. Just stay positive!
|
Your instruction here | Speaker: Wow, I just found out the craziest thing
Listener: What did you find out??
Speaker: My old babysitter when I was younger was only 3 years older than me. She messaged me on Facebook and were going on a date this weekend
Listener: Oh wow, are you excited?? I would assume so if you agreed to go on a date. I hope you guys have a great time!
Speaker: Im so excited. I hope it goes well
|

|
