↳ Gone Girl (2014)“Nick loved a girl I was pretending to be. “Cool girl”. Men always use that as their defining compliment. “She’s a cool girl”. Cool girl is hot. Cool girl is game. Cool girl is fun. Cool girl never gets angry at her man. She only smiles in a chagrined, loving manner and then presents her mouth for fucking. She likes what he likes. When I met Nick Dunne, I knew he wanted cool girl. And for him, I’ll admit, I was willing to try. I lived in the moment. I ate cold pizza and remained a size two. I was fucking game.”
We were the happiest couple we knew. And what’s the point of being together if you’re not the happiest? But Nick got lazy. He became someone I did not agree to marry. He actually expected me to love him unconditionally. Then he dragged me, penniless, to the navel of his great country and found himself a newer, younger, bouncier cool girl. You think I’d let him destroy me and end up happier than ever? N o f u c k i n g w a y.
