You send a message and wait.
Not for long conversations.
Just for a reply.
When someone reads your message and stays silent,
your mind starts filling the gaps.
You wonder if you said something wrong.
You replay the words again and again.
Silence doesn’t always mean rejection.
Sometimes it means confusion.
Sometimes it means distance.
But waiting for a reply can slowly drain you.
It makes you question your worth.
Remember this:
Your value is not measured by someone’s response.
