Yes, I require a lot, effort, dedication, passion, intention, appreciation, the full package. And that's okay, because I also give a lot without keeping emotional receipts.But people these days seem addicted to lore quality connections. Low effort, lore feelings, low standards, somehore marketed as "chill." Don't settle for that just because it's conveniently available. The world will try convincing you to accept whatever they can offer comfortably. And if you don't fall for it, suddenly you're labeled arrogant or demanding. Wanting better makes you "too much" only for those unwilling to level up. It's rarely about you, it's about their laziness and fragile egos. When they can't perform, they blame the standard instead of upgrading themselves. Because upgrading themselves would require effort, and effort isn't trending right now.
