Dear Diary,

It wasn’t something big or dramatic between us… just a simple bond, talking sometimes, knowing each other a little. At first it felt nice, like okay this is easy, no pressure, just normal conversations.

But slowly I started noticing things… like I was the one texting first most of the time, waiting for replies, and they would come late. Not wrong or anything… just not the same effort. And I didn’t say anything then, I just kept going with it.

Umm… but somewhere I started feeling off. Like this is becoming a little too one-sided for me. Not that he’s a bad person or anything, just the bond felt passive… and I don’t think I want something like that in my life.

So I decided to stop. Not because I was angry or hurt a lot… just because I wanted my own space and peace. I told him clearly, and he respected it in his way.

Even now, I do think about him sometimes… like did I hurt him? did I do right? But I know my intentions were never wrong. I just chose what felt right for me.

And honestly… I feel okay.

I feel a little more like myself again.
