Does this person exist out there who have enough capacity to pour into my cup before I have to pour into theirs? One who can have a crush on me, not based on how well I see them, but because of how well they see me?

sometimes i had to stop looking for someone to fill my cup because i kept accepting people who only took from it. waiting for someone who shows up consistently has been so much kinder to my heart.
How did you make this shift? Since me and my ex broke up the first time I feel like I only attract people who tell me they like me because I see them and it’s people I keep at arms length because I feel exhausted always getting into these conversations where I don’t get the same back that I give. I live for deep conversations but I often feel like I end up holding the space.
have you ever had someone make you feel genuinely seen, even for a little while, or has it always felt one-sided?
I have. But I am very self sufficient so I need to really be seen because someone wants to. Not because someone needs to if you know what I mean.
i spent years being the one who always gave first, and i kept hoping someone would choose me with that same energy. i promise you're not asking for too much by wanting to feel cared for too.
Thank you for your kind words. I feel you and you too🙏🏼❤️
