Here:
But since reading comprehension is obviously a problem let me parse each word for you:
Will you give up the other woman: Other woman means Iron Man
Im going to stop just for you: Stop is again referring to being Iron Man
He is a hero now outside of the suit: Again referring to no longer being Iron Man
He will almost certainly go back on his promise: That means the promise to stop being Iron Man. He can't very well go back on something if he didn't do it in the first place.
I don't know how much clearer this can possibly be. But I hear DeNile is great this time of year.
Wait why are you quoting printed stuff from the first draft?
Shane Black said, At the end, if hes going to prove to Pepper in the version of the first draft, she didnt want to give up her powers. She said I cant do it. I cant go back. And he said, Well, how about if I give it up then. Will you do that for me? And he had this scene, which was very romantic, where he sacrifices the suits in order to get her to give up her power.
Drew Pearce added, And that was where it started, and I think it came to mean something else. The key word in the later versions and the filmed version is this idea of distractions, and the fact that literally, physically Iron Man has been getting in the way of their relationship.
Shane Black said, Well, what it is really is Will you give up the other woman? I cant stop schtupping this other woman and she says Please, and he goes Ok, Im going to stop just for you, and she hugs him and says Thank you.
All of this is from the first draft of the script. Pretty much Pepper didn't want to give up her powers so Tony told her he'd give up his other woman if she gave up her powers.
NONE of that happened on film. On film he blew up his suits to start fresh. Clean slate. He never gave up being Iron Man.
