“Actually, it's not okay, but the more I think about it not being okay,”
其實，這事並不是沒關係，可我越琢磨它有多不對勁，就越覺得確實有哪裡不對勁。
棒在哪裡
用同一個 not okay 反覆自我拉扯，把一句安慰拆成繞圈子的內心獨白。重複同一個詞卻層層加碼，越說越亂，反而比任何漂亮話都真實。
句型骨架
It's not okay, but the more I think about it not being okay, the more ...
使用場景
對親近的人坦白自己其實還在難過時用，適合私人談話；對不熟的人說會顯得太沉重。
同類表達
I keep telling myself it's fine, and it isn't. ／ The more I deny it, the truer it feels.
