"I haven't had a girlfriend since before The War, but I could imagine myself saying something like that if I did..." it sounds a little fond and a little sad when he says it. Like it feels like something he's missed. It's been almost two years since they all came back from the blip, two empty years where nothing has settled quite right expect an empty apartment in the change of the world and Sam occasionally bothering him about things.
Maybe that's why he'd been so easy to not argue with Natasha. Something deep inside him wanted something, anything to cling on to. To not be bitter about the fact that he lost Steve to time, and Steve even just let him be there and tortured for decades. To wish that he was old and time could just move on instead of drudging on at the pace it's going.
