"Don't Chase What's Not Chasing You"

In our lives, we often hear the phrase "if you love something, let it go." This phrase is commonly applied to relationships, where we are told that if the person we love truly loves us back, they will come back to us. However, this advice can be misinterpreted and lead to chasing after something or someone that may not be worth our time and effort.

The truth is, we should not chase what is not chasing us. When it comes to relationships, this means that we should not pursue someone who is not reciprocating our feelings or making an effort to maintain the relationship. Instead, we should focus on ourselves and only invest time and energy in relationships where both parties are invested and committed.

Here are a few scenarios to consider when it comes to not chasing what is not chasing you in relationships:

The Unrequited Crush

We have all experienced a crush on someone who does not feel the same way. It can be a frustrating and painful experience, but it is important to remember that unrequited love is not uncommon. In these situations, it is essential to recognize that you cannot force someone to have feelings for you and chasing after them will only lead to disappointment and heartache. Instead, focus on loving and valuing yourself and eventually, the right person will come into your life.

The "Friend-Zoned" Friend

It is common to develop feelings for a close friend, but it is important to remember that not all friendships lead to romantic relationships. If your friend has made it clear that they only see you as a friend, it is crucial to respect their boundaries and not try to change their mind. Chasing after them will only cause tension and strain in the friendship, and it is better to find someone who reciprocates your feelings.

The Hot-and-Cold Partner

In some relationships, one partner may be inconsistent in their affection and attention. They may be all over you one moment and distant the next, leaving you feeling confused and unsure of the relationship's future. In these situations, it is important to recognize that chasing after someone who is not consistently investing in the relationship will only lead to emotional exhaustion. Instead, have a conversation with your partner about your needs and desires, and if they are unable or unwilling to meet them, it may be time to move on.

The Non-Committal Partner

Some partners may not be ready or willing to commit to a long-term relationship. They may enjoy spending time with you, but they are not looking for anything serious. In these cases, it is important to recognize that chasing after someone who is not committed to a relationship will only lead to disappointment. Instead, focus on finding someone who shares your goals and values, and who is willing to make a commitment to a future together.

In all of these scenarios, it is important to focus on self-love and self-care. When we prioritize our own happiness and well-being, we attract healthier and more fulfilling relationships into our lives. Chasing after something or someone that is not chasing us will only lead to frustration, disappointment, and heartache.
