Chapter Summary
Chapter
One The chapter introduces Warren, a barista and student who dislikes mornings. His day begins with a prank
from his friend Ridge that leads to an unexpected encounter with his new roommate, Bridgette. This confrontation
disrupts his solitary lifestyle and brings both humor and attraction into his life. While Warren is frustrated by the
change, he finds himself drawn to Bridgette, who is tough and assertive. Their playful banter hints at the
complexities of their new living situation, especially as Warren struggles with feelings of jealousy regarding
Bridgette's connection to his friend Brennan. Themes of unexpected attraction and friendship emerge, setting the

aware was moving in. Warren finds himself thrown into a
hilarious and awkward confrontation—a stark contrast to his
typically solitary life.
Warren's apartment is shared with Ridge and another friend,
Brennan, and he has grown accustomed to his dude-centric
lifestyle. This sudden change with Bridgette, a hot girl with
an attitude, throws him off. As they clash, it's clear that
Warren is not only frustrated by their new living arrangement
but also finds himself inexplicably attracted to her. Amidst
their humorous banter and her unexpected punches, it
becomes evident that Bridgette isn't just a pretty face—she's
tough and clearly not interested in being pushed around.
The tension escalates as Warren navigates his feelings,
grappling with jealousy and a sense of protectiveness
towards his friendship with Brennan, who seems to have
some kind of connection to Bridgette. There's a palpable
playfulness in their exchanges, foreshadowing the
complicated dynamics that could arise from living with
someone he cannot ignore—especially someone who has
already invaded his personal space (and bathroom!).
Themes of unexpected attraction, friendship, and the chaos of
new situations are prominent here. Warren's internal struggle
between his disdain for Bridgette and his undeniable
attraction to her sets the stage for a captivating, comedic

exploration of relationships. By the end of the chapter, it's
clear that while Warren is trying to resist the complications of
this new living situation, he may have just become entangled

experiences and people with an open heart, just like
Warren navigates the awkwardness of having a new
roommate. Instead of clinging to routine and familiarity,
consider the potential growth, laughter, and even

fighting it, you might just find yourself on a delightful
journey towards personal discovery and deeper

Critical Thinking
Key Point:The complexities of relationships often
involve misunderstandings and miscommunication,
as seen between Warren, Bridgette, and Sydney.
Critical Interpretation:In Chapter 10 of Colleen Hoover's
"Maybe Not", the interplay between jealousy and
vulnerability becomes apparent as each character
navigates their feelings. Sydney misinterprets a simple
act, leading to confrontation and reflection on
boundaries. This dynamic illustrates how assumptions
can distort perceptions, prompting readers to question
whether the author’s portrayal of love dynamics
accurately reflects reality. Relationships, as argued in
studies such as John Gottman's work on emotional
intelligence in relationships (Gottman, J.M. & Silver, N.
2015. 'The Seven Principles for Making Marriage
Work'), suggest that effective communication is the
cornerstone of lasting connections. Yet, Hoover
provides a fictional lens, suggesting that while
emotional upheaval can catalyze growth, the
simplification of these moments might overlook deeper
relational complexities.

for who she is, and in a pivotal moment, he boldly confesses,
“I love you, Bridgette.” Her shocked reaction captures the
weight of those three words, and she initially struggles with
accepting love due to her past. Yet, through playful banter
and heartfelt reassurances, their connection deepens, leading
to her reciprocating his feelings.
The chapter shifts from heartache to joy as they share an
intimate moment, both physically and emotionally,
solidifying their relationship. In a light-hearted moment,
Warren suggests they take their relationship further by
moving in together—though they already technically live
under the same roof. As they joke about this and engage in
playful teasing, it reflects a nice balance of vulnerability and
comfort in their newfound love.
Their romantic connection ultimately leads to laughter and
deeper intimacy, reaffirming their bond. The chapter ends
with a humorous twist as Warren attempts to suggest a more
serious date, but Bridgette's playful rejection hints at the fun,
blossoming dynamics in their relationship. This chapter
beautifully captures themes of love, vulnerability, and the
journey of accepting oneself while also navigating the
complexities of emotional connections.

Critical Thinking
Key Point:The complex interplay of love and
vulnerability is masterfully highlighted in a moment
of both grief and joy.
Critical Interpretation:In this chapter, Colleen Hoover
astutely showcases how profound emotional experiences
often coexist in romantic relationships. When Brennan
delivers devastating news about Bridgette’s father, it
forces both characters to confront their respective
vulnerabilities. Warren's embrace of Bridgette amid
heartache exemplifies a supportive love that transcends
mere physical presence; he affirms her worthiness of
love even amidst personal turmoil. This theme can be
interpreted as both an affirmation of the human
condition and a challenge to the notion that relationships
must always be uncomplicated to be fulfilling. While
Hoover's portrayal suggests a healing power of love, one
could argue that real-life complexities might not yield
the same outcomes, as supported by research in
psychological intimacy (Murray, S. L. et al., 2010).
Relationships often struggle when confronted with
external stressors, emphasizing that while love has the
potential to heal, it can also be complicated and flecked

with doubt.
inspiration
Key Point:The importance of vulnerability in
relationships
Life inspiration:As you lie next to someone who truly
sees you, consider how vulnerability allows love to
flourish. Embracing your own struggles and
uncertainties, like Bridgette did, invites a deeper
connection not just with others, but with yourself.
Understanding that opening up can lead to both
heartbreak and profound joy offers a powerful lesson:
it's through these honest moments of shared pain and
laughter that you can form bonds that are resilient and
transformative. Just as Warren's comforting presence
helped Bridgette accept love after her fears, you too can
inspire those around you by showing that love thrives in
vulnerability.
