The British film star Hugh Grant can’t seem to work out what women want.
“There’s no girl who only wants bastards(坏蛋),and no girl who wants a nice guy(伙计).Women want both,” the British star tells the May issue of the Talk magazine. “And,really,they’d like to change by turns on a weekly basis. Can any man be both? I like to keep women guessing.”
Since Grant’s break-up last year with his longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley,the thought of throwing himself into another big relationship doesn’t seem like it’s expected.
“How easy do you think it is to find someone you can share 14 years of personal jokes with? Not easy. And I don’t know that I will,” he says.
Still,the 40-year-old star admits he can’t help thinking that his clock is ticking.
“In the end,I want to have kids(children).But in the back of my mind,I never wanted to have kids until I’d done something I’m proud of written a book,had my name on something really worthwhile,” he says. “I’m determined not to be in front of the cameras any more.”
With all of these concerns(心思)inside,has Grant ever considered seeing a psychiatrist(精神病医生)to sort things out?
“I don’t think I need treatment,thank you,” sniffs the star.
“I’m frightened of those people. And more than that,I don’t want to know what lies beneath(在下面).”
