You don’t text me anymore

Poem

I call and I text,
but I don’t get anything in return.
I don’t know what I did
to deserve the silent treatment.
I guess I didn’t rate.
Now you have the upper hand.

I’m sorry, did I offend you;
did my careless words
prick your tender heart?

I guess it’s just too awkward
to take that first step:
a “hello” may lead to
“how are you doing?”
and then you’ll have to
explain your regret.

If I can’t get a little affection,
can I at least—
get some validation?

Song

It hurts to be ignored,
it hurts to be pushed aside.
I’m trying to find the words,
to make everything alright.

I’m sorry if I hurt you,
I’m sorry if I’m always right.
But I can’t keep on living like this—
feeling like I did something wrong.

I hope you’ll pick up the phone,
or call me back, if you care?
Just send a text—
letting me know that you’re there.

We don’t have to talk
about what went wrong.
We can just start all over,
and find a way to make it right.

I miss you more than I can say,
and I need you in my life.
So please don’t leave me hanging—
can you find a way?

The most TOXIC RELATIONSHIP BELIEF: how you may be sabotaging your success

“Males are hard wired with a higher capacity for love: physical (flesh), emotional (compassionate) and spiritual (faith). Female love is physical (flesh) and emotional (patriotism) only. Men who are separated from a spouse (when she’s obliged to leave) are several times more lightly to break down emotionally versus women. The reason for this is because a husband is supposed to be invested in his wife and kids, to insure his generations will continue. Women on the other hand must be resilient, because the show must go on, with her leading man if possible, but if not, with his understudy and so on.”
“I was in a beautiful relationship. I shared with her, some of my insecurities as the relationship grew deeper, however that eroded her interest in me over time. She had been an amazing partner and friend up to that day? After that turn of events, I sat down with my mom and explained to her what had happened to us, she immediately told me: ‘that I had made a huge mistake, and that I should now be mature enough to know, that you never share your insecurities or weaknesses with a girl, no matter how much love you believe exists in the relationship, she’ll lose interest, if she’s a good girl; or use it against you, if she’s a bad one’. Advice from a woman that had decades of successful marriage with my dad. Ignore all those female dating coaches that tell you to be emotionally open, share your pain, etc. I found out the hard way, that a man is absolutely never supposed to show vulnerability in front of women, because they just don’t understand!”
“She is challenging him, which is disrespectful to him. Why should anyone be entitled to challenge anyone, if not to shame or disregard their opinion, values, and ideas? If he allows her to challenge him, she won’t care about what he has to say and won’t even try to understand why he thinks that way. Because he will say whatever she wants to hear and become submissive. She will be the one leading the conversation and ultimately the relationship to its end, when she loses interest in him.”
“In the battle of the sexes there are winners and losers and if you can’t command respect from the onset, you don’t stand a fighting chance. Even though modern women feign that they want their prospective mate to only bring polite manners to the table, at the end of the day, all that hype goes out the window, when they fall for the smooth talker who can wield power over them, via looks, notoriety, money or dominion. That’s why it’s so important, that young women are taught by their parents, to not yield to their biological cravings, otherwise they will end up alone, bitter and cynical—if they allow themselves to be disrespected by modern barbarians who are only interested in toying with their emotions and then tossing them out to the proverbial ‘trash heap of losers'”.
