After Arthur went out with someone a few times, he’d tell that woman, “I think you can find someone better than me. Call me back in a month if you can’t.”
They never called back, so Arthur assumed they’d found someone better. It was for the best.
He says the same thing to Jenny, someone with whom he particularly clicks.
One month later she calls him back. His heart leaps.
“Did you find someone?” he asks.
“Yes,” she says. “Me. I’ve learned to love myself, Arthur. I hope you can, too. Call me back in a month if you can.”
Click.
Love!

Nicely done.
