We have been the one who cared more in the past, and quite frankly, we are exhausted.
We don’t want to bother putting in effort that will not be returned.
We don’t want to bother to send texts that are going to be ignored.
God & Man
We might swear we are finished with the games.
We might desperately want to settle down and give up the single life for good.
But we have trouble with commitment.
We admire cute guys from afar without bothering to walk over and introduce ourselves.
We swipe through dating apps without bothering to answer our messages.
We tell our friends about someone were somewhat interested in dating without fillinghimin on our feelings as well.
We put off meeting in person.
We put off forming a genuine connection that goes beyond a screen.
We assume history is going to repeat itself.
We dont want to bother putting in effort that will not be returned.
We dont want to bother to send texts that are going to be ignored.
We dont want to bother to get attached to someone who is only temporary.
We have grown to think of relationships as a waste of our time.
They never work out, so we have stopped trying but we dontrealizewe have stopped trying.
We still sign up for dating apps, even though we rarely exchange numbers with a match.
We still keep an eye out for cute guys, even though we rarely start a conversation with them.
We still flirt whenever we get the chance, even though the flirting never evolves into anything more serious.
We have stopped taking active steps to form a relationship because we are used to being single.
Whether or not we are entirely happy about being on our own, at least we are comfortable.
At least we are in a space we find familiar.
We have been burned before, so we dont bother to take relationships seriously anymore.
We dont bother to answer texts from guys who show interest.
We dont bother to pick a time and a place to meet up for drinks.
We dont bother to make an effort because we assume we are going to get hurt.
We assume caring would be a mistake.
