for the past several months I’ve been resistant to talking and introducing myself to a lot of people
The reason is because I feel like I’m going to have to commit to that relationship I just started
The reality is that in University we do meet a lot of people and at the same time we do lose touch with a lot of people without even trying. It just happens naturally
for some relationship to flourish and grow, both parties have to put effort into it and if one of them doesn’t, the connection will slowly fade away naturally
Point is
I will need to let go of the responsibility that I feel before I even approach someone
several times it has stopped me from talking to someone you who seems interesting
I Tell myself several excuses and what ifs and I burden myself with thinking that if I approached them, I’m going to have to be friends with them.
I want to have a more realistic approach to this:
That’s my curiosity to lead the way without thinking too much of how I can manage this relationship after this talk.
because in most cases we would just talk once and never again
this has happened already so many times with me but I somehow still believe that it won’t happen next time
I gotta stop “fantasizing” interactions. Be realistic, present, and Authentic
I’m proud to share that I took action on this realization and did something that I’ve been wanting to do since mid-fall semester(around 2-3 months)
