You aren’t sure whether you’re fighting for something worthwhile or something wasteful.
You aren’t sure whether your heart has the right idea or whether you should start the healing process.
Otherwise you wouldnt bother.
AC Almelor
Deep down in your gut, you feel like you would be a good fit together.
You feel like you would make a perfect match.
And sometimes, it feels like your person feels it too.
But youre the only one doing anything about it.
Youre the only one courageous enough to make a move.
Youre the only one bothering to put in any effort.
And that can get confusing.
The worst part about chasing someone is the uncertainty.
You arent sure whether your energy is going to pay off in the end.
You arent sure whether youre fighting for something worthwhile or something wasteful.
You arent sure whether your heart has the right idea or whether you should start the healing process.
The worst part about chasing someone is the self-doubt.
The longer you go without taking the next step with them, the more you question yourself.
You wonder whether theyre avoiding making a commitment because you dont turn them on enough.
Because you dont excite them enough.
Because you dont surprise them enough.
Because you dont challenge them enough.
Even though you recognize you would make a damn good partner, you start assuming the worst.
The worst part about chasing someone is the drained energy.
The exhaustion, both mentally and physically.
Its not easy carrying all of the weight in a relationship.
It requires a shit ton of effort.
It takes a lot out of you.
No onewantsto chase the person theyre interested in dating.
No one wants to put in extra work.
They want to skip the silly games and skip to the part where they end up together.
They want to make things official.
They want to go on real dates.
They want to build a real future.
The worst part of chasing someone is that its entirely one-sided.
They arent chasing you, too.
Theyre running in the other direction, or at the very least, theyre stubbornly staying in place.
Either way, theyre making it hard to establish a real, authentic connection.
