let people go

I did this last Thursday when I saw a friend that I tried to get close to, hoping for a deeper connection. And I see now, in retrospect, that she didn’t want a connection. When I saw her last week, I instantly thought about striking up a conversation, but decided to let it go. I did my best to be a good friend, but that didn’t affect her at all. So as hard as this is, I’m going to let it go. It’s a difficult thing to do because it brings up questions about why it didn’t work and whether it had anything to do with me, but it’s just as much about her as it is about me. She’s likely this way with others as well. The hardest part is not to take it personally. I’m going to get over this and move on. 6 years ago
