Good afternoon my fellow Steemians. Happy sunday to you all. I want to appreciate the moderate for the opportunity to write about this topic.When i saw this contest i knew i was going to participate as i could relate with it.
As human beings we have had our down moments and high moments and have had a couple down moments but there's always one that strikes a chord.
My saddest experience was one that had to do with love. I cannot even believe am writing about this.😁 There was this guy who i met and we got talking and after a while he opened up to me that he likes me, but he was not in a hurry, he wanted us to take things gradually and because liked him too i just went with the flow. At first it was beautiful and everything was going well but later on he got promoted in his place of work and that was where everything changed. 🥺 It became a matter of am always busy and because things were not like this before i thought maybe it was because of his promotion and the fact that his still trying to balance things.
This went on for a while. I was the only one reaching out, he does not bother to call or text, i did the calling and texting and even when we fix a time to have quality conversations he does not show up.I kept giving excuses for him because things was never like this. we still spoke but not like before and i wasn't happy about it.
Then it was his birthday, that day we spoke for long, even though we were not in the same state i ensured to check up on him all throughout the day and by the evening of that day he stopped replying my messages. I thought he was busy and reached out to him the next day but no response. I was confused, because there was no quarrel i could not discern the problem, i was very sad throughout the day and i could not do anything. I felt bad and even cried, for four days i tried reaching him he won't pick but when i tell my friend to call with her line he picks. I felt the problem was me and for a week i was inactive. I was very down and sometimes i cried because i really liked him and i did not even know what the problem was, for days I could not do anything productive until i had to encourage myself and gradually i moved past the all thing. I stopped trying to reach out to him though it was difficult but i was able to move past it.
It was not easy for me because had invested alot of emotions on the friendship but i was able to overcome it by taking it one day at a time. I had to talk to myself and bring back my focus back. I started engaging in productive activity and even when my mind wonders to it i bring it back. And i also had a friend who i confided in, she also helped me during that period.
When i went through this experience and after coming out of it. It dawned on me that there are others like me who would invest emotions on people and in turn be treated like they don't matter. My advice is to stop giving excuses for them and realise that you are special and someone that really cares for you will make out time no matter what.
I know it's not easy but you can move pass it. You can start engaging in productive activities that will take help you move pass it and have someone you can confind in , as no man is an island. You can also create healthy boundaries around relationships that will help you, maintain your emotional health.

The relationship is what I cannot think of right now because of what I have seen.
