I have had a hard time with this lately. I was trying to make someone stay in my life and all I did was push him away further. I feel like the harder I try the worse it is. He misunderstood things I said. It’s to the point I don’t think he ever really wants to talk. I pushed him further away. And I finally realized I need to step back. If he is meant to be in my life he will be. If not , maybe it was never meant to be. If he wants to be a part of my life, he would do whatever necessary to remain at the very least my friend . It is what it is. I’m done chasing someone especially since I was just chasing him further away.
