That doesnt make the relationship any less meaningful but it can make it incredibly painful.
They take things with you one day at a time.
They might even use that exact line on you.
Marina Abrosimova
They refuse to introduce you to their family, friends, and coworkers.
Plus, they wont want anyone getting attached if they know that the relationship isnt going to last forever.
Its easier to keep you separate from everyone else so things dont get too messy.
They wont commit to anything that sounds too serious.
They wont say those three little words back to you.
They wont move in with you or adopt a pet with you.
They are trying hard to keep the relationship casual because they dont see it going anywhere.
They never open up to you on a deeper level.
Some people need a while to get comfortable enough to let down their walls.
They are keeping you at arms length for a reason.
Maybe theyre worried youre going to walk away.
Or maybe theyre planning on leaving themselves.
They are creating a life without you.
Theres nothing wrong with having space from your partner and living your own lives.
However, those lives should overlap.
They should include you in important moments and fill you in on whats going on with them.
Even iftheyarent planning on leaving, you deserve someone who includes you.
Someone who wants you around.
