I'm tired of getting close to people and then watching them walk out of my life

I'm tired of trying. Tired of putting myself out there, opening up to people, and forming connections, only to watch them walk out of my life. It's a cycle that seems to repeat itself over and over again, leaving me feeling drained and defeated.

I've always been someone who wears their heart on their sleeve, who is quick to trust and eager to form bonds with others. But time and time again, I've been let down. People come into my life, we get close, we share our hopes and dreams, and then suddenly, they're gone. It's like they were never there at all.

It's hard not to take it personally, to wonder what I did wrong or why I wasn't enough to make them stay. But the truth is, it's not always about me. People come and go for a variety of reasons, and sometimes it has nothing to do with me at all.

But that doesn't make it any easier to deal with. Each time someone walks out of my life, it feels like a piece of me is being ripped away. I'm left feeling empty and alone, wondering if I'll ever find someone who will stick around for the long haul.

I'm tired of trying. Tired of putting in the effort to build relationships, only to have them crumble before my eyes. It's exhausting to constantly be on guard, to protect my heart from being broken yet again.

But despite my weariness, I know that I can't give up. I have to keep trying, keep putting myself out there, even if it means risking getting hurt again. Because deep down, I know that the connections I make are worth the pain of losing them.

So I'll continue to open myself up to others, to form new bonds and create memories. And if they walk out of my life, I'll try to remember that it's not a reflection of my worth. I'll pick myself up, dust myself off, and keep moving forward, knowing that someday, I'll find the people who will stay.
