We’ve all been there—even
Anna Kendrick. She shares her
heartbreak story in this exclusive
excerpt from her new book,
Scrappy Little Nobody.
“He just
wasn’t that
into me”
t
he summer I turned 21,
I dated a musician I’ll call
Connor. Well, I thought
he was a musician and
that we were dating. He thought
he was a screenwriter who occa-
sionally played music and that
we were “hooking up and not
labeling things because labels
cause drama.” He was 28 and
something of an introvert. I took
this to mean that he was deep
and artistic and probably judged
me for talking as much as I do.
Once we broke up, I realized it
just meant that he was kind of
boring—and probably judged me
for talking as much as I do.➻
