I’ve reached a point in my life where I no longer expect too much from people. If you want to leave, I won’t stop you. If unfriending me makes you happy, go ahead. I’ve learned to accept that not all efforts are reciprocated, and that’s okay. If you can’t match my love, I respect that. If you don’t like me, I can live with that. Reaching this mindset takes maturity. It takes self-love to understand that pleasing people is exhausting, that begging for their presence is pointless, and that forcing connections is never worth it. Now, I let things flow—if you stay, you’re meant to be in my life; if you leave, I let go. It’s draining to force things, painful to see your efforts go unnoticed, and not worth it to chase someone just to prove your love. You deserve better than that. Friendships shouldn’t be forced, and reconciliation shouldn’t be given to those who don’t deserve it. Never regret trying, especially when you’ve done your part to make things work. Focus on your own journey. Surround yourself with those who truly love you. Embrace change—because, in the end, it’s the only constant thing in this world.
