GOING and AMPLIFIED vs MAGNIFIED

Could you tell me what you think of these sentences?

- He's going to leave because she left.
- You're not not going eat so you can feed your dog.

Which word would you use here please?

- Your personality is magnified/amplified when you drink
- I don't remember which one mine is./which one is mine.
- Sometimes all it takes/all you need is one cigarette to get addicted.
- The 2nd time you smoke you'll never feel the way it made you feel the first time./it'll never make you feel the way it made you feel the first time.

Thank you

  • - He's going to leave because she left.
  • -- sounds good - - You're not not going eat so you can feed your dog.
  • Are you telling the person that since they are not eating they should have the time to feed their dog?
  • Then, I would change to: If you're not going to eat, you can feed your dog.

I think Kjw didn't notice the second "not" in the sentence -- I missed it myself
