Amara - The Turkish Oracle

Everything But The Title

Add it up one time. Really add it up. Your weekends — his. Your loyalty — his. The 2am phone calls when he can't sleep — yours to answer, every time. Your "i love you" — said first, said often, said into a silence he never quite fills back. He gets all of it. And when you reach for the one thing that would cost him something — a title, a word, a place in his life you don't have to audition for — what comes back is "let's see where things go." You are the girlfriend in every way that asks something of you, and none of the ways that would ask something of him. You do the loving. He does the "seeing." And you've started wondering if you're being paranoid, or difficult, or asking too much — when all you're really asking is to be called the thing you already are. It isn't that he doesn't feel it. Men like this feel it fine. They just never have to say it, because you keep giving everything whether the word ever comes or not. The title was never a reward he hands over when he's ready. It's a word stuck in his chest — and there's a reason it stays stuck. There's a way to finally pull it loose. Out loud. Without you asking again. Tap below. ⬇️
