Chapter 480: Actions Speak Louder
Some people have a way with words. They know exactly what to say, stringing together sentences that sound like promises, like commitments. They tell you they don't want to lose you, that you matter, that you're important. The words are comforting, reassuring—at least for a moment. But then, you start to notice that those words don't quite match the way they act.
You find yourself waiting, wondering. Why do the words and actions feel like they're from different worlds? They tell you they don't want to lose you, yet they leave you hanging, absent when it counts. They speak of love, of connection, but their actions seem distracted, distant, as if their mind is somewhere else entirely. You start to feel like you're holding onto something that's slipping through your fingers, no matter how tightly you grip.
They say all the right things, but their actions tell a different story. They tell you that you're special, yet they make you feel like an afterthought. They talk about the future, but their present actions make you question if you're even part of their now. It's a confusing place to be, caught between words that promise security and actions that breed uncertainty.
You begin to realize that words, as beautiful as they can be, are just words. It's the actions that reveal the truth. If someone really doesn't want to lose you, they'll show it—not just say it. They'll be there, in the small moments, in the everyday choices that add up to something bigger. They'll make the effort, not because they have to, but because they want to.
And if they act like they don't want to keep you, no matter what they say, you start to understand that maybe it's time to stop listening to the words and start paying attention to what's really happening. Because in the end, actions will always speak louder than words, and love is proven by what we do, not just what we say.
You deserve more than empty promises. You deserve someone who not only talks like they don't want to lose you, but who also acts like they want to keep you.
