Do you realize that?

The more you push me away.

The more you push me towards her.

The more I need to reach out to someone.

To fill the emotional space for me.

The longer you keep up this silent treatment.

The more time you give me to think about her.

The longer you continue to shut me out emotionally.

The more that I turn towards her for understanding.

The longer you continue to blow me off.

The more I am turning to her for the trust and comfort.

While you may need your space.

I also have needs.

And I need you.

To at least casually talk to me.

The longer you shut me out.

The more I worry about how close you two are getting.

The longer you shut me out.

The further my hurt is going.

I understand this is a tough time for you.

But shouldn’t you be allowing me to help you?

I know this isn’t easy for you.

But don’t my needs mean anything?

I know you love me.

But you have a funny way of showing it right now.

I don’t know how to tell you that you are going to push me.

Right away from you.

Right back into non-emotional me.

I can’t do that again.

I hope that you don’t want me to do that again.

Please talk to me.
