Quote #10

I began to think of Andie as an escape, an opportunity. An option. I'd come home to find Amy in a tight ball on the sofa […] I would think: Andie wouldn't do that. As if I knew Andie. (19.42)

We kind of get why Nick starts chasing another woman. His marriage is in shambles and Amy's become distant, depressed, and completely uninterested in him. Nick may claim to love Andie, but in reality, she's just another one of his escapist vices, along with porn, alcohol, and reading back issues of his old magazine.
