Thank you, next

I did things differently this time. I went for someone different. I watched for red flags (there weren’t any), we took it slow, we talked everyday, you wanted your best mate to meet me, he said I was good for you. You told your sister about me. Then I could feel it change in the space of a few days, you weren’t calling me babe, your texts were less, you left me on unread. I called you out on it, you apologised and said you’re overwhelmed with everything going on. I’m not waiting for someone who doesn’t know what he has when he has it.

This time I am picking me. I’m not forcing my way into someone’s life who doesn’t want to put me in it. It may hurt a little, but I’m stronger and wiser. Thank you, next.
