@realwhiteflag: I’m not ignoring anyone. I just stopped forcing conversations that only exist when I start them. For a while, I kept wondering why certain people suddenly became distant. So I’d text first. I’d check in first. I’d keep the conversation alive, even when their replies made it obvious they weren’t really interested in talking. And honestly, I got tired. Not angry. Not bitter. Just tired of feeling like I had to remind people that I existed. So I stopped. I stopped double texting. Stopped asking why they were quiet. Stopped creating reasons to talk to people who never created reasons to talk to me. And you know what happened? Some people disappeared completely. That told me everything I needed to know. Because if a connection dies the moment I stop carrying it, maybe I wasn’t losing a person. Maybe I was finally letting go of something I was the only one holding onto. I’m still here. I still care. I just don’t chase conversations anymore. If you want to talk to me, you know where to find me. And if you don’t… I’ll respect the silence.
