It's not hard t0 vanish, not like someone would notice.

Always the first one to messaged, never the first to receive a message.

Always the first to invite, never the first to receive an invite.

Always the first to make plans, never the one to recieve plans.

What would happen if you don't make the first move?

Nothing.

Nothing would actually happen because you aren't the person people think of first in life.

Time to declutter your home, life, and pack up.

Move to Europe like you always planned too but didn't,

You didn't because you thought those people cared.
