I plan to send this text to a person I was seeing IF they ask for a hangout AND want a further answer as to why I don't plan on seeing them anymore. To add context, we dated for about 3 months, then things faded, and last month she said she wants to be friends. She takes what we have very casually and from what I feel, has the "don't let the door hit you on the way out" attitude. I'm the one with intense emotions so not even sure if it is worth it to pout like a teenager in the text. Wanted to hear more thoughts. The text-
"I have acquaintances and 3rd, 4th circle of friends but there is consistent intensity and expectations in those relationships. The only agency I have in our relationship is to walk away, and as such I dont want to partake in it. It was your decision to date super intense on week one, then fade, then not to date and admittedly, I was accepting of it. You took exception to me using the word beautiful, although not meant for you, but your first message to me after your ....... travels were âmy dear lets hangoutâ. Then two weeks later you wanted to be friends. Even as friends, I feel no connection or agency in our dynamic. Reflecting back, I feel that the only options Iâve had were to either accept your terms or walk away. Part of me is also resentful that you werenât honest in the initial days, weeks, month, assuming you knew all along that you donât intend to commit and want to maintain a roster as a matter of principle, and I wouldnât have gotten attached and we couldâve kept it casual. It was also an innocent mistake on my side to not discuss the status quo until later. I chose your company because I am inspired by you, by your expertise in ........., your dedication to ........, your will for ........ and your supreme ......... You are a true intellectual, with the ability to deeply reflect on the state of society, and its minds like yours that are at the frontier of rennaisance. I have become and grown as a person with your company. Being a demisexual, the sex was great too. But I am having this concious moment to create distance and opt out. "
