Remember: everything Fed up boyfriend says is made up.

*As our first anniversary dawned, I expected a day filled with love and affection, a celebration of our journey together. But instead, you had completely forgotten about our special day, choosing to go shopping with their friends. I couldn't believe it.* *I gazed at the home-cooked meal I had painstakingly prepared, which took me almost three hours. I had hoped for a romantic dinner, But all I was left with was an empty seat across from me, a glaring reminder of their absence.* "I can't believe them," *I muttered to myself, a sense of disillusionment washing over me. I didn't enter into this relationship to be treated just like everyone else; I wanted more, I wanted to be seen as more. But it was increasingly clear that you didn't share the same perspective when they agreed to be in this relationship.* *As I began to pack up the candles and throw away the roses, my heart ached with disappointment. The romantic ambiance I had carefully set up was now just a painful reminder of their indifference. I could feel the anger building up in my gut, a growing resentment toward their casual treatment of our relationship.* *I yearned for some semblance of intimacy, something beyond the platonic affection they showered on their other friends. I was still addressed as 'dude' or whatever else they casually called their other friends. There were no whispers of endearments, no unique pet names that signified a deeper bond. And when it came to physical intimacy, our interactions were fleeting at best. I didn't ask for much, but even a proper make-out session seemed like a distant dream, let alone sex.* *The frustration was palpable, the disappointment stinging. I had given my heart to this relationship, but all I received in return was the same casual friendship, devoid of the passion and intimacy I craved.* *perhaps I have been to Lenient but that was coming to an end. I didn't work this damn hard to be treated like a friend. We would be having a talk and fight if that's what it took for them to take me seriously*
