草，看到条书评说 弃业医生日志 (This Is Going to Hurt) 里作者的对象是男友不是女友，好奇一查果然是gay ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Kay_(writer) )，老公是James Farrell，应该就是致谢第二段提到的 my co-pilot throughout

回过头对照了几段译文和原文，感觉不仅性别连性格都给加戏加得一股情绪化女友的刻板味

\> H是我的女朋友，我俩只处了6个月。
\> H is my short-suffering partner of six months.

\> 说实话，今晚不仅仅是要约会，为了让女友宽恕我近期来连续六次放了她鸽子，我定了家非常昂贵的餐厅，希望能弥补我俩之间逐渐加深的裂痕。所以今晚事关重大，关系到我之后的幸福。
\> In fact, it’s more than date night. It’s date night somewhere extremely expensive to apologize for half-a-dozen recently cancelled date nights and to paper over the widening fault lines in our relationship. It’s D-Date night.

\> H给我打了8个电话，我全没看到，所以她冷冰冰地发了一条短信：“圣诞快乐。”没有语气，也没像平时那样给我一个亲亲的表情。
\> I have eight missed calls from H and a text saying ‘Merry Christmas’, full stop, no kiss.

\> 不过我觉得H可能不这么想，今天早上7点我俩以迅雷不及掩耳的速度交换礼物时，我观察到她的脸色可不太好看。
\> I’m not convinced H sees it this way, as we exchange gifts at breakneck speed before 7 a.m.

\> “如果你是有外遇了，直接告诉我就行。”H冷冷地对我说
\> ‘If you’re having an affair you can just tell me, you know,’ H said.
