so I met someone about a month ago and since then we’ve met and hung out a few times and talked consistently. All is well, and I don’t care if it doesn’t escalate. I’m happy being friends.
However, I feel like I’ve worn out my welcome. Conversations have become shorter and less frequent. Less uhh, ‘lovey dovey’ style. No more emojis or flirtatious conversations. Talking in general has almost come to a complete halt.
And by all means, it’s fine. Her life is not mine to keep. But still, it sucks gradually drifting especially with all the effort I try and put in.
I guess what I have taken from this and what I think other’s should take from it is that, if you’re into someone, don’t try and become the priority in their life. Don’t expect messages out of nowhere wishing you a good day. Don’t expect random snapchats or photos, no compliments, no conversation instigation, no phone calls. None of that. The more you instigate the more let down you’ll become when you want them to do it for once. And they don’t.
Feelings aren’t shit. But they wound me easily
