Clarification?

Ummm...it seems many people have been unable to make sense of the previous post, I guess a trainer is required...

Paragraphs 1, 3, 5 (and the last line) are conversations between the protagonist and random women.
Paragraphs 2, 4, 6 are conversations between the protagonist and the love of his life - the bride (best friend, ex girlfriend, your choice).

Hope this helps...

Incidents

Conversations

"Excuse me? Yes, could I get a Corona please..."
"Aah yes I'm new in town, looking for places to hang out...by the by, you really have beautiful eyes..."
"I am but a speaker of the truth mademoiselle...so what else is there to do in this town?"
"Oh really? Well then I must check this place out on the weekend...and hopefully see you again?"
"I must confess I've never really heard anyone say 'lol' out loud before...I'm sure people must find it very endearing..."

"Hey hon...just got back from the office..."
"Of course I wish you were here...Dare I say lets elope? I know your mom already approves..."
"I'm kidding, I'm kidding..."
"I agree, we should catch up more often...maybe I'll fly down this fall..."
"Yes ma'am, I'll try not to disappear completely from now on..."

"I'm sorry, I couldnt hear you! The music seems uncomfortably loud..."
"Would I like to get you a beer? Ummm, ok..."
"Careful there, you dont want to fall..."
"Rest assured, I'm not a 'player' as you claim I might be, let me go see if some of your friends are in better shape to take care of you..."

"Hello? Hey...I'm sorry, I couldn't hear the phone ring, its obnoxiously loud inside..."
"Of course not, I always have time for you..."
"You had another fight? Babes, you're going to get married soon...yes, I'll talk to him and get back to you...dont worry, I'll take care of this..."
"Hey...yes he's calm , now please go make up...and you call me if anything!"
"Love you too...I'll always be there..."

"May I have the pleasure of this dance?"
"Oh, just old friends with the bride, nothing more..."
"You're quite right, its surprising how weddings bring out the romance in people...time is short, we should always be making the most of it..."
"Do excuse me, I think I have to be somewhere else right now..."

"As long as I've known, you've completed me...you've been the ripples in my heart, keeping me whole when I ought to have drifted away into myself, into obscurity...rain washing away my scars, breathing into me new chances and old love...you're my favorite girl, my beautiful distraction, my angel...I've never known peace till I found you, and maybe I'll never know love since, and if I could stop but a grain of time it would be enough...to show you the stars in my soul, to tell you the clichés of my love, to be together forever and a day...all I ask is that..."
"Oh hey, didnt see you there..."
"Hehe, no wasnt speaking to myself, just thinking out loud..."
"Looking for you? Aah yes, I wanted to tell you something...you look so beautiful tonight by the way, you take my breath away..."
"Just that I love you, and I'll always be there..."

"Excuse me? Yes, could I get a Corona please...by the by, you have beautiful eyes..."
