Ok, hands up who relates to this story? 🙋🏼‍♀️
You really like someone, but they're being consistently distant. It doesn't make sense because they were so keen at first, they told you how much they liked you, and then suddenly something switches and they pull away. Rather than walk away, our mind goes into overdrive and we try to think of every possible reason why their behaviour's changed. Suddenly, we're thinking about them obsessively, we envision our futures together and tell ourselves it's because we've never felt this way about anyone else.
We cling to every reason as to why they've changed... we remember they told us their ex cheated on them so it might be they freaked out because they liked us so much. They have a family issue, so that must be taking up their headspace. They start making excuses too - their phone died, they were hungover, they need to see their mum. We clutch to those excuses, ignoring the niggling doubts bubbling in your gut. Hating ourselves for double texting. Eventually, we snap and unleash when we're drunk and then they tell us that we're crazy and we hate yourself even more. If only we'd have played it cool.
We've all been there right? God I know I got stuck in this cycle and it knocked my confidence each time and my dating expectations became lower and lower.
But here's the thing we all know: if someone likes you they act like it. They text you back, and they ask how are you (and not just at 1am or when they're feeling lonely on a Sunday evening.
And regardless of anything they are going through or have going on, you deserve respect and someone who adores you. And if they're not giving it to you, then you have to give it to yourself. Plus, the more someone gets away with poor behaviour the more they do it.
You probably don't even like them as much as your brain is telling you, you just don't want to face the rejection.
So if you're sat making excuses as to why someone isn't texting you back again, please take your power back and walk away. Someone better is around the corner and you don't need the stress. Dont make a clown of yourself (wish I could go back and tell myself this) 🤡 ❤️✌️
