Quotations from the book

It's Just a Date

Greg Behrendt

There are things in life you can change—your weight, your appearance, your mindset, etc.—but there is one thing you cannot change and that is other people. Try as we might, we cannot get people to love us. Even when we are the coolest best version of ourselves someone is going to say, "Not for me." But if we feel good about ourselves we can shrug it off and say, "It's just a date," and know that there will be others.

—Greg Behrendt in It's Just a Date

You can't fix people or make them change; the only thing you can do is pack your things and leave if it isn't working for you.
