Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I don’t want to make this marriage work. I’m a fine piece of ass who doesn’t need this shit. I want a man who keeps his word and is so brutally honest that it’s almost cruel. You are not that man, Adrien.”
“Men say women are complicated, but they aren’t. Just text back, and don’t stick your dick in other people. Pretty straightforward.”
“Trust is like glass. It takes time to heat and temper, to make it transparent for both parties to see through. But once it’s shattered, there are so many broken pieces on the floor that it’s impossible to put back together. A year may pass, and you’ll step into the kitchen barefoot for a glass of water and get a shard in your heel. And you’ll remember how it got there.”
“You’re too fucking beautiful for this bullshit. Because if you were mine—” He shut his mouth immediately but kept his eyes locked on mine, like he wished he could take back what he’d said, but it was too late. “You wouldn’t have to make this decision in the first place.”
“So she knows she made the right choice—and she never has to look back and wonder. So she knows that her marriage failed because her husband was a piece of shit cockroach, not because she wasn’t enough. So she knows she deserves a hell of a lot better than a punk-ass bitch like you. That’s why you’re going to tell her.”
