TessaReneeI don’t miss you the way I thought I would.
I miss what it could have been if you had just tried a little harder.
If you had shown up more consistently, communicated more clearly, put in the same effort I was giving without me having to ask for it. If you had met me where I was instead of keeping me in a space where I had to question everything.
That’s what stays with me.
Not the ending.
The lack of effort.
Because it didn’t have to be that way. It didn’t have to fall apart the way it did, didn’t have to feel one sided, didn’t have to leave me wondering if I was asking for too much when I really wasn’t asking for anything unreasonable.
I just wanted you to match me.
And you didn’t.
That’s the part that’s hard to accept.
Because I saw what you were capable of. I saw it in moments, in flashes, in the times where everything aligned just enough to show me what it could have been if you stayed consistent.
But you didn’t stay there.
You went back to giving just enough to keep it going, not enough to make it real. And I stayed longer than I should have, hoping those moments would become the standard instead of the exception.
They never did.
And that’s what I wish was different.
Not you as a person.
Just the way you chose to show up.
Because if you had tried the way I did, we might not be here.
But you didn’t.
And now I have to accept that effort can’t be forced, and potential doesn’t matter if it’s not consistent.
Tessa’s Straight-Up Perspective
If they wanted to show up for you, they would have.
You wouldn’t have had to wish for it.
Final Thought: Divine Delulu Summary
You don’t miss them.
You miss the effort they never gave.
