I don’t want to

Honesty I feel like a teenager. There’s nothing particularly wrong. I just don’t want to do anything.

Today the little one was up early- and by little I mean 4.5yrs old. It was okay mostly. Here’s a good lad. We chilled in my bed for a bit. He kept going back to his bedroom to check the light on his clock to see when it was going green and then eventually about 6:00am, we came down to the living room and just chilled on the sofa bed. When T was up, we went for a walk, got a coffee, caught some bugs and came back.

I feel like the only reasons I ever hear anything from A is after I message first. I feel like I need to grow up but, I’m already grown up. I hate having feelings. Any feelings.

Just feels a bit rubbish, because we had that conversation last week, where I said I was struggling and I needed to hear from him more. Even today, I sent him a message that was like, “I miss hearing from you more often”. You know when someone’s like, “tell me what you need and I will do it because I want to” and you do and they just don’t hear it. I don’t want to be needy and a burden but I think that’s what I am, ultimately.

I’ve been in this same situation, wanting that connection and no matter the expressions of understanding my needs, he couldn’t find it in himself to meet them, despite stating they were reasonable and understandable.  People will never make sense to me entirely.
