Connected whether we like it or not

I confess that my ex and I have shared an almost spooky connection since the moment we met. We constantly said exactly the same thing at the same time. We saw the same pictures in the clouds. We finished each other’s sentences. So when I saw that he had called me it came as no surprise because I’ve been thinking of him constantly lately too. So much that I had even written a letter to him but hadn’t actually sent it. It’s so painful to miss someone so much, and suspect that they’re missing you too, but they just can’t ever step up and make it real. So I guess that we’ll both just carry on in our separate lives, missing what might have been.

I dearly love the way most people avoid change and risk. It's very helpful to me.
Not just from a material perspective. It brings such welcome clarity.
We have nothing in common and won't be friends.
Ah well. The world needs sheep, too, I suppose.

Like how you can't step up? Like how you can't make it real either? Why aren't you trying? Seriously.
People pine for another and they do nothing about it. The worst that can happen is that they decline. Get over yourselves and take chances versus stew in regret.

No, not like me at all. I was ALWAYS the one willing to step up and I proved it over and over again. I finally realized that chasing someone who didn’t appreciate what he had, and who didn’t value me enough to do any chasing of his own was a complete waste of time. So I stopped.

Amazing

Wasted 3s of my life reading the first sentence that I am never getting back.
