It's cool though because after an entire novel's worth of this shit the girl finally snaps out... actually, wait, no, the guy leaves HER.
And then she goes and fucks the friendzoned friend (whose best friend turned out to be gay on their eurotrip, which got awkward because he sucked his dick one drunken night) who's been helplessly in love with her, BUT he figures out that it's probably not a good idea so he leaves her too.
So after an entire fucking novel the girl never learns ANYTHING except random lines quoted out of fucking BARTHES.
