CRUSH? NOT ENOUGH

 "Liking me, having a crush on me, admiring me, finding me attractive—that’s the bare minimum. Don’t come to me with “I have a crush on you” like it’s some grand gesture. I’m no longer a teenager. That line doesn’t hold weight anymore."

Do you think being liked is enough? 

Let's unravel this together! 

Gorgeous ladies, 

Don’t fall for charm with no consistency. Don’t mistake flirtation for intention. If his words are sweet but his actions are missing? That’s a no. 

Emotional presence is not something you should have to chase. 

Stop waiting around for someone who makes you feel confused and craved, but never secure. Your emotional peace is not a toy.

Intentional Men, 

Don’t use attention as currency if you can’t afford emotional investment. If you admire a woman, say so respectfully and clearly but don’t create emotional closeness that you’re not ready to maintain.

And if you’re just admiring from afar? Leave it there.

Don't settle for anyone who wouldn't give you attention. You deserve to be loved too and treated with kindness! 

You're not asking for too much. You might just be asking the wrong people.

If you’re giving attention, be intentional. 

Don’t feed people half-energy and expect full investment in return. Emotional breadcrumbs are not affection they’re confusion.

If you're interested in someone, say it and mean it.

Stop hiding behind “friendship” or harmless teasing when you know your intentions are deeper. That’s not honesty, that’s manipulation.

 If you're not ready for emotional commitment, don’t pull people into emotional closeness.

It’s okay to not be ready. What’s not okay is to emotionally orbit someone just to feel special without showing up properly.

My lovelies, 

Think about this; 

Crush? Not enough.

Charm? Still not enough.

Consistency, clarity, effort, and emotional safety? Now we’re talking.

What are you bringing to the table emotionally? Be specific. We don't want on-and-off energy. Don't come in hot and disappear, and expect to be taken seriously.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I want 100% attention.

I want 100% love. 

I want presence not someone who dips in and out of my life. 

If you’re showing up, show up all the way. If you’re here, then be here fully. We are either in this together, or not at all.

It’s not enough to say you like me. You need to show that you are ready to be intentional. What is the emotional investment you’re making? 

Are you going to make me feel safe? 

Are you giving me commitment? 

Are you actually showing up for me?

If not? Don’t come and tell me you have a crush on me. 

Reflection

I’ve learned that attention without intention is just noise. I understand that we all crave cute words but don't accompany romantic confusion. Ask for clarity. Demand presence and accept peace. It’s a boundary awareness message to you my readers. A reminder to yourself that you're no longer entertaining emotional games disguised as affection.

If they can't match your energy, don't let them in your space.
