    “Take a drink every time you hear you’re not enough.
    Not the right fit.
    Not the right look.
    Not the right focus.
    Not the right drive.
    Not the right time.
    Not the right job.
    Not the right path.
    Not the right future.
    Not the right present.
    Not the right you.
    Not you.
    (Not me?)
    There’s just something missing.
    From us.
    What could I have done?
    Nothing. It’s just…
    (Who you are.)
    I didn’t think we were serious.
    (You’re just too…
    …sweet.
    …soft.
    …sensitive.)
    I just don’t see us ending up together.
    I met someone.
    I’m sorry
    It’s not you.
    Swallow it down.
    We’re not on the same page.
    We’re not in the same place.
    It’s not you.
    We can’t help who we fall in love with.
    (And who we don’t.)
    You’re such a good friend.
    You’re going to make the right girl happy.
    You deserve better.
    Let’s stay friends.
    I don’t want to lose you.
    It’s not you.
    I’m sorry.”

    “The old gods may be great, but they are neither kind nor merciful. They are fickle, unsteady as moonlight on water, or shadows in a storm. If you insist on calling them, take heed: be careful what you ask for, be willing to pay the price. And no matter how desperate or dire, never pray to the gods that answer after dark.”
    V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
