and suddenly, i don't want to be anyone's girlfriend anymore. i spent so much time loving someone who never loved me the same way. i ignored the red flags, hoping that one day he would choose me the way i chose him, but that day never came. i'm tired of asking for the bare minimum, tired of questioning my worth, overthinking everything, and making myself smaller just to fit into someone's life. now, i choose self-respect over chasing someone who isn't sure about me, and solitude over feeling lonely in a relationship.
