It means he's an idiot and he shoulda thought about what he was doin' before he picked up the phone and put his bullshit on you.
Or that's what it sounds like to me. You deserve better.
[ And that's the truth. Sober. He's always thought that Stephanie Rogers deserves the world, that no one is or ever will be good enough for her and a lot of the time that's included himself. It's just worse now, even knowing she's not perfect and she wasn't even back then. ]
Then you're a bigger idiot than he is, but not by much.
Out of all the people I know, you're the best of 'em, Rogers. Even when you were that sick pain in the ass girl I had to chase down alleys to get her to leave a bully alone for a change.
[ He wonders if the Asgardian hooch is still in his system when it comes to her claiming she'll never be good enough for him. That or he's misunderstanding her because he doesn't see where she thinks that's ever been the case when it comes to them. ]
Maybe. But still not good enough to be anyone's anything.
[ It's not self-pity, just... resignation. Anyone's interest in her now is just because of the serum, and before the serum, well, there hadn't been any. It's fine, she's accepted it. ]
The booze got you real good, huh? Slept well at least?
Don't give me that shit, Rogers. You know you're full of it. Anyone'd be lucky to have you, even him when he knows he shouldn't.
[ He's gonna regret talking about himself in a third person way, pretending like he wasn't an idiot who got drunk and needed her more than he probably should have when she deserves getting to have a life away from him trying to work through his own things and figuring out how to have a life himself. ]
Got more than a few hours, better than I usually get.

I just... I don't think I'll ever be good enough for him, you know?
