Who I truly am 🌹

Friendship

                   Who I truly am🌹

When a hypersensitive person leaves you!
They still adore you, a hypersensitive person will pursue you, but only for a limited time. When they love, they give their all, they show up fully, they commit wholeheartedly, and they nurture stability and loyalty in the relationship. But the moment they feel they're pleading for attention, begging for time, craving to be noticed, they start to retreat, not because their love has waned. They'll replay every word you said, pondering what changed; they'll overanalyze, take responsibility, strive harder, and love more profoundly. But if they still feel overlooked, unappreciated, or taken for granted, they halt abruptly. The messages dwindle, the enthusiasm wanes, and the energy they once invested in you is redirected inward. And when a hypersensitive person prioritizes self-love, there's no going back. You might regret losing them, but they won't yearn for validation. A hypersensitive person never chases someone who makes them feel unworthy. So if a hypersensitive person has stopped pursuing you, don't take it to heart. A hypersensitive person loves you selflessly and still moves forward with dignity. I was always me.

    This reads like a clear-eyed boundary wrapped in tenderness—someone naming their emotional limits without bitterness, just truth.
    There’s dignity in it, like love that finally learned where it ends and self-respect begins.

      This is a revealing of the inner self and mechanism that drives a hypersensitive person. Well written it lays down an understanding for those that are not aware of how it functions. Nicely done Friendship

      Quite an interesting piece.
      I'm now thinking, if two hypersensitive people get together, do sparks fly.
      Can two hypersensitive people get together, or would that be too much.

        Friendship, this carries a lot of emotional truth in it…especially that slow retreat when someone realizes they’re pouring into a space that no longer pours back. “I was always me” lands with real dignity at the end. Powerful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

            Dignity outranks love. Energy redirected. No going back. I was always me. Highly relatable.Clearly written 🌹🌹

            this rings true for me, and most of us, because most of us are sensitive [or rather over-sensitive] because that is where the words spring forth and burst into indelible verse...

            And I'm always too! Who knows it's true?
