Mariela : Wow, it looks like you are working on a big project. What are these pages and pages notes for?

Will     : I'm preparing for my date with Christine . I want everything to be well-planned and to go without hitch.

Mariela: Okay, But i still don't understand why you're making such detailed plans.

Will   : I want to be ready for every contingency. For instance , I planned a picnic , But if it rains. I'll take her to lanuch at the Garden  cafe  instead.

Mariela: Don't you think you are taking the spontaneity out of you date? Why don't you play it by ear ? I know you don't like to fly by the seat of your pants , but maybe she'll have some ideas about what she'd like to do.

Will  : Oh , I've taken her preferences into account . If she wants to do something active , we can go bowling or take a long walk.If she prefers something more passive,we'll go to a movie.

Mariela : Well. it sounds like you've mapped out every possible alternative.Hey, what's this ?

Will : Give me that.

Mariela : I see. You've mapped out more than just your date. You mapped out the entire trajectory of you life together: Get married in two years, and have your first children two years after that.

Will : That is not meant for you .And plus ,it's just a tentative plan.

Mariela : You mean Christine will have some say in it?

Will : I may let her pick our children's names. Now get out of here, will ya?

Where did you get this? It seems like some extract of a play or some drama script.
'Will' in the short dialogue you posted is a control freak. His morbid fascination of mapping out life in elaborate details is utterly disturbing. Such as this bears an uncanny resemblance to a friend of mine.

Anyway, I found a very good website that should also help you.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/

This website offers you correct spelling and definitions of different words found in the modern English dictionary. When you learn English, do not get the involvement of a second language. It will impair your learning capacity. That is how some Chinese successfully mastered English in Singapore.
