Scene From A Relationship: As You Wish

Dan and Bastet are concluding a rather tumutuous state-of-the-union discussion re: their relationship

DAN: Well, if you want to break up, I just want to make things as clean and easy for you as possible.
BASTET: I don't want breaking up with you to be clean and easy. I want it to be slow and lingering and painful.

A moment passes as Dan is bewildered into silence. Finally...

DAN: That also can be arranged.

Throw me down a hill and call me Westley.

    ...I cannot tell if I'm incredibly impressed and full of admiration for her or simply confused.

    Confused admiration?

    The Woman In Question issued the following clarification:

    "I meant I would rather have a long and messy and painful relationship with you [That's me!--db] than a clean breakup"

    Ah. Now I get it. To her, I simply say:

    As You Wish.
