  • I have a soft spot for doughnuts.

  • Couldn't you wait?

  • No, sorry, I can't.

  • Oh, is that chocolate I can see in your bag?

  • You couldn't spare a few chunks, could you?

  • I have a soft spot for chocolate as well.

  • No, Rob, you can't.

  • But can I assume a soft spot refers to your large and soft belly you have as a result of eating too many sweet things?

  • Not that I have one anyway.

  • If you have a soft spot for something, it means you have the feeling of really liking something or someone.
