“When you meet someone who is good for you, they won’t fill you with insecurities by focusing on your flaws. They’ll fill you with inspiration, because they’ll focus on all the best parts of you.”
― Colleen Hoover, All Your Perfects

“You’re an idiot,” Preston says.

“Excuse me?”

“You’re an idiot, sir?” he tries again.

“Just tell me how much she likes Dave, Preston. I don’t have time for this girly bullshit.” Jesus fuck, am I going to have to resort to getting girl advice from my gay assistant? What the hell has my life come to? Sandra has turned everything upside down.

“She doesn’t like Dave. She likes you. She’s had a crush on you forever and I’m totally breaking girl code telling you any of this.”

“Then why the hell is she spending the weekend with Dave?” I ask, ignoring his girl code.

“But you know Sandy’s a nice girl. She doesn’t know what to make of a guy who fucks her in his office but never asks her to dinner,” Preston continues. Apparently girl code is over. “Women are complex creatures, Gabe. They think it means something when a man takes his sweet-ass time asking her on a date. They think it means you’re just interested in the sex.” He narrows his eyes at me. “Obviously that’s not the case here, as based on the way you look at that girl it’s clear you’re already half in love with her.”

I really am getting girl advice from my gay assistant

“Since you know everything, care to tell me where she went with Dave?”

“Marissa’s wedding.”

“Who the hell is Marissa?”

“Hello? She works here? In sales?”

I shrug. Still no idea who he’s talking about.

“You know, if you’d taken me up on my suggestion about briefing you on company gossip during Whisper Wednesdays you wouldn’t be so behind right now.”

I’m going to kill him before this conversation is over”

“What's the secret to a perfect marriage?' The old man leaned forward and looked at me very seriously. 'Our marriage hasn't been perfect. No marriage is perfect. There were times when she gave up on us. There were even more times when I gave up on us. The secret to our longevity is that we never gave up at the same time.”

“I think sometimes you get so used to being with someone that it’s just a habit, not something that really makes you happy.”
