Recently I met someone and really fell in love with them, and luckily for me, they also really fell in love with me too, so everything went really smoothly with us. I'll ask for a date and we'll both be very excited to go on it. I'll call and reach out multiple times to check up on them and they'll call and reach out multiple times to check up on me too.
So beautiful!
Then one day during a conversation, she told me she thinks I really love her and I'm lucky she loves me too or else she would have given me a hard time; that she would have not been taking my calls or replying my messages and it would have hurt me so badly, clearly.
She then assumed that I would have chased her hard, that I would have called more and gone through the pains of trying to get her but I told her "Nah". I wouldn't have done any of those. Then I went on a long explanation about how I don't chase lovers.
I can chase business partners or things I want like money, but never people I want for love or relationships. And the reason is, no matter how much I love you, if you don't love me back how can I be happy to be in a relationship with you?
Where is the fun in being in a relationship with someone that doesn't love you back? Would you enjoy being with them knowing that they don't want you too? Knowing that they would have rather not been with you?
Maybe some people don't mind at all, but isn't that rather selfish? Not minding the other person's disinterest and lack of enjoyment of your company, only thinking about your own enjoyment. But I guess, to each his own.
So, for me, the most I do is to present myself to the person I want, let them really see what I look like, sound like, the way I think, the kind of person I am, etc. After seeing all these and you still need me to beg you to be with me it just means you don't like what you see and that means I'll be the only one enjoying being with you. So I just gotta go.
I know it could also be the case of playing hard to get as ladies are wont to do, but what I do is try to find out if it's the hard to get thing or just plain dislike/disinterest. If it is just the hard to get thing I can put a little more effort but that's only if she doesn't overdo it.
I told her all of these, and told her that as much as the love I have for her is, if I sent texts or called her repeatedly and she did respond she'll never hear from me again, I'll let all the feelings go. She was really surprised, but that's just how the cookie crumbles on my side.
