"In the beginning, we thought about each other constantly. Barely containing sighs at the sight of one another. Texts in the morning, emails at lunch. Sending flowers for no reason... "Just because," becomes our favorite phrase. Nightly phone calls. Falling asleep to the sound of your voice. Homemade cookies, because chocolate chip is your favorite. Slow walks, in light rain. Those were the best. Talking, laughing."
"So, how'd we get here? Non interested nods as we fake conversations, frowns when facing the caller ID. Hand holding stopped eons ago and I can't remember the last time we walked in the rain."
The relationship begins with constant attention, frequent messages, spontaneous gifts, nightly calls, shared comforts, and simple rituals like walking in light rain. Early gestures establish intimacy through talking, laughter, small surprises, and thoughtful habits. Over time those rituals fade into indifference, short or forced exchanges, and avoidance of calls. Physical affection declines, hand holding stops, and previously enjoyed activities are forgotten. The emotional distance replaces warmth and spontaneity, leaving a sense of loss and bewilderment about how closeness eroded into detachment.
