A scene from When Harry Met Sally 1989
Harry

You know you just get to a certain point where you get tired of the whole thing.

Sally

What "whole thing"?

Harry

The whole life-of-a-single-guy thing. You meet someone, you have the safe lunch, you decide you like each other enough to move on to dinner. You go dancing, you do the white-man's over-bite, go back to her place, you have sex and the minute you're finished you know what goes through your mind? How long do I have to lie here and hold her before I can get up and go home. Is thirty seconds enough?

Sally

That's what you're thinking? Is that true?

Harry

Sure! All men think that. How long do you want to be held afterwards? All night, right? See there's your problem, somewhere between thirty seconds and all night is your problem.

Sally

I don't have a problem!

Harry

Yeah you do.
