Summer Fling Built Entirely On "Good Will Hunting" Quotes

Bakersfield, CA---A short-term summer romance between college graduates Conner Hess and Andrea Milner has been helped tremendously by quotes from the 1997 film Good Will Hunting. Hess, 22, began courting Milner, 22, in early May and quickly discovered their shared affection for the Boston-set therapy drama. "When I asked her if she'd like to get coffee with me," said Hess, "Andrea immediately replied, 'or we could just eat a bunch of caramels!' and then we continued back-and-forth with the banter [Matt] Damon uses on Minnie Driver." Milner added, "He was so sweet. Conner totally knew all the lines, without missing a beat." Other lightly amusing quotes from the film became used later in June, such as when Hess excused himself to the bathroom by saying, "I swallowed a bug" a la Casey Affleck, and when Milner quoted Minnie Driver's character during a particularly heavy make-out session: "If you're not thinking with your wiener, then you're acting directly on its behalf!" In fact, a variety of GWH one-liners and references has aided this pseudo-couple throughout numerous cutesy interactions and social gaffs. Unfortunately, the couple's prolonged tryst quickly ended this August when Milner relocated to Salt Lake City, NV to be closer to her family. As a result, Hess was recently asked by a friend if he now "had to go see about a girl." To which he replied, "Nope."
