People don't just disappear on you.
They lower their effort.
They keep chatting just enough to keep you hopeful but not enough to take responsibility.
Here are 4 signs that say "no" slowly:
Texts that only mention time.
"Busy week," "Long day," or just "Lol" - no plans, no direction.
Kind words, no actions.
They say nice things, tell you they miss you, flirt a bit, but don't move things forward.
You're the one pushing.
If you stop reaching out, the connection fades. That's not chemistry; that's on you.
Always saying maybe.
"Soon," "We should," or "I'm up for it" - but no real plans, no definite yes.
Here's what you lose.
Weeks you could have spent with someone real.
Your self-respect gets chipped away every time you settle for less.
And the worst part?
You start telling yourself it's "good enough."
So you don't have to admit it's not real.

Most people don't see this: the longer you accept low effort, the more you show people what you will accept.
