Why I told Nick I was engaged to another man

I told Nick I was engaged to another man because I was ticked off that he threw me over the phone. I thought he was an honest, straightforward person. He was not the person I believed him to be. Besides, no one dumps me. I could have any man I wanted, and I know Nick knew that. I guess our relationship suffered throughout the summer, given what was going on around him and I. I told him I was engaged to another man because I wanted to make him jealous. Despite the fact that he dumped me, I could see it in his eyes that he was in love with me. Why would he break it off with me if he loved me? I don't deserve to be treated like I mean nothing. If I meant something to him, he would have showed me he loved me. He didn't hold onto me, so I told him I was engaged to another man to break the heart he never gave me. After seeing my best friend Daisy's marriage almost fall completely apart, I am wary of relationships. I'm still waiting for the right man to come along in my life and this man I am engaged to is most likely the one. His name is certainly not Nick Carraway.

  1. I'm honestly not even that surprised you lied to me, you always had to have what you want, and you couldn't believe I left you. You just weren't my type, I wasn't made for the big city. I did have feelings for you, but I still had second thoughts. I was caught up in the rush of a new city, and I just fell for the first girl I met. Maybe something could have happened between us and we could have ended up happily ever after, but I guess we'll never know
    Your still good friend, Nick

  2. I don't think you should have told Nick that and you two would have been quite swell together! You know me and my love of match making but I just always saw my wonderful cousin Nick with you! If I were you I would take it back. Although I can see why you did it (He doesn't really have any money)
