In My Feelings (But He’s Not)



It’s the push and pull of life. The challenge of putting your heart on the line only to have it hang in limbo like a car waiting at a red light that never seems to turn green.

The trick of it all is that when you are finally prepared to find another route (or in this case another person), the light finally turns green and offers you a glimmer of hope - only to hold you up at the next intersection.

It would be easy to cut your losses and move on, but the moments of hope are so soothing to your soul that you are completely enamored with just the prospect of just getting to know him more. To make matters worse or at the very least more pathetic, you start counting the smallest things, like him texting you before you text him, as wins.

Am I overacting? Am I moving too fast? Am I not moving fast enough? Or is he just not into me? These are all questions that I have asked and tried to be as honest as possible with myself about the potential of this forming into the relationship of my dreams instead of just the awkward friendship that we currently have.

Maybe that’s the issue. Maybe we are looking at this situation in two different lights. Maybe I am deep in my feelings riding down the road towards a potential relationship and the thought of that isn’t even on his radar. If that’s the case, where do we go here? I don’t know, but I have questions and I’m clinging on to the hope that maybe he has the answers.
