Faking To Be Happy Quotes Novels & Stories

"Can't wait for this charade to be over. Nothing like pretending to be happy-go-lucky when the world has fucked you coming and going." "Put on your big boy panties and suck it up. Fake it if you have to." Those were the last words I spoke to Moby all evening. The instant we cross the threshold into the restaurant, he plasters a smile to his face and is cordial with everyone, jokes with some, and appears to enjoy having company. We both mingle; we just didn't do it together.

I replied, pretending to know a lot about these colorful dresses that I have never seen before. As long as they're beautiful in the eyes, then it doesn't matter. Who cares how they are made and where they are from? They're just going to wear it. My friends, though offering polite smiles and words of praise, couldn't hide the flicker of jealousy that danced in their eyes. I know they’re jealous of me no matter how much they try to hide it with their sweet smiles. I know that so well because I fake my happiness too when one of them gets success.

Count me in. Let’s admit it—we’ve always wanted to live luxuriously, even if it’s just for a day or two. It’s a different world that we thrive in. If I’d even get to print a tweet for my motto in life, it’d probably be that one statement I saw “I wish God made me sad but filthy rich.” Because hey, I’d be a hypocrite if I won’t say that money can’t buy a little happiness—maybe they’re searching for it in the wrong store.

Why can’t she let me have mine?"

” I bit out. She tilted her head to the side and searched my face. ”You’ve gone through more than anyone I've known and you’re still here. You might feel broken and beat, lifeless even, but you’re here. You got up and you got out of the room. But I don't want you to ever fake your smile because if you do, it might never turn real. It is better for you to frown, cry, or just stare than to fake a smile. Seeing your smile should be a gift.”

“You can’t say that, Tracy. Life is full of surprises. Sometimes, happiness hides where we least expect it.” She turned to look at me, her eyes glistening under the sunlight. “And where exactly do you think my happiness is hiding, Jacob? Because I’ve looked everywhere.” I shrugged playfully. “Maybe it’s standing right next to you.” Tracy blinked, then frowned slightly. “You’re funny.” “Good,” I said, pretending to be serious. “Because laughter looks better on you than tears.” That made her lips curve a little. It wasn’t a big smile, but it was a start. I felt a small victory in my chest.

Chapter 3 — Make a wish .. GRANT “…. Happy birthday to youuuuu” The song ended and I faked a smile, so my daughter and families can relax and not take my stoic attitude personally. It’s not that I hate birthday , I actually don’t give a fuck which day it is, I would rather be somewhere else. Preferably between the thighs of a certain raven haired beauty currently hiding behind her friend at the far edge of the crowded table, blushing like a sinner in church.

Ava teased, pushing my shoulder "Doesn't he adore you in his spare time?" No! But he enjoys threatening me! I feigned blush and lowered my gaze. It's pointless to tell them the truth and make them miserable in such a joyful environment. We will return after her wedding, and everything will be finished. Let this untruth be a lie if it makes them happy.

I hugged him back with a fake smile, if he can take this then so can I. "Glad you could make it..." He saod. "Glad to be here..." I said with a fake smile.

She stated in a low tone. "No~" Someone answered, so her eyes widened in shock and glanced beside him. She found out that it was Kai since it is already obvious, judging from the tone. "Why?" She asked, "I just wanted to be happy, yet the world doesn't allow me to," He answered, "Being happy is a choice, you shouldn't pass it to the world," He glanced back at her, "If you wanna be happy, be grateful for what you have. If you wanna be happy, tend to see the positive and happy side than the negative and sad ones. If you wanna be happy, learn to let go of the things that are hurting you.
