Utility based connections...

Half-hearted remembrance is a full-blown betrayal:

What breaks a heart most isn’t being left or even forgotten...it’s being remembered only when it serves a need. When your name surfaces not from care, but from convenience. When you're reached out to in moments of need, not moments of meaning. That’s utility, not affection.

There’s nothing more quietly painful than realizing you were never missed, only momentarily required. Refuse to be merely a fallback. You're not a lifeline on standby for anyone. You’re a person with soul, feelings and emotions. When someone treats like a solution instead of a connection, that is the real abandonment. Don’t be naive. Don't lie to your mirror. It knows...
