So…
I\u2019ve been thinking.
And honestly,
I need to tell you something,
even if it\u2019s a little hard to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lately,
everything feels like too much.
Not just us,
but life, in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You see,
when we talk a lot,
I start to feel overwhelmed.
At first, I\u2019m all in.
But after a while,
my mind fills up.
And then,
the words slip right through me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not because I\u2019m not listening.
Actually,
I\u2019m trying really hard to.
But sometimes,
my head can\u2019t keep up with my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s why,
I think we should ease up on the calls.
Instead,
let\u2019s text more.
That way,
I can take my time.
I can think.
I can respond with a clear mind,
rather than just nodding on the phone,
while my brain checks out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To be clear,
it\u2019s not that I don\u2019t enjoy hearing your voice,
I do.
However,
too much at once
feels like I\u2019m carrying more than I can hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides,
there\u2019s something else I need to be honest about.
And this part\u2019s not easy to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The more we talk,
the closer I feel.
And truthfully,
I\u2019m scared I might fall for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But right now,
I\u2019m not ready for that.
Not because of you,
but because of where I\u2019m at with myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the moment,
I\u2019m still learning how to carry my own feelings
before I carry someone else\u2019s.
So for now,
I need to go slow.
I need to protect my peace,
and maybe yours too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even so,
this doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m walking away.
On the contrary,
I value this.
I care about you.
That\u2019s exactly why
I want to be honest with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moving too fast
might ruin something that could\u2019ve been beautiful
if we just gave it time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Therefore,
I hope we can still stay connected,
just not in a way that costs us our calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s keep it simple.
Let\u2019s keep it kind.
Let\u2019s keep it real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because in the end,
honesty is better than pretending.
And space,
when given with care,
can actually bring people closer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So yeah\u2026
I\u2019m still here.
Just at a different pace.
And hopefully,
that\u2019s okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
