I’m Done Chasing Boys and Ready for a Real Man
I’m so fucking done.
Last night, I found myself sitting on the bathroom floor, mascara streaking down my face, clutching my phone and waiting for a text that would never come. Again.
This is not who I am. This is not who I want to be.
I’m done chasing boys who can’t even be bothered to send a simple “goodnight” text. I’m done with the games, the ghosting, and the goddamn emotional rollercoaster.
You know what? I deserve better. We all do.
I’m ready for a man who knows how to communicate like an adult. A man who doesn’t leave me hanging, wondering if I’m too much or not enough.
I want someone who understands that my time is valuable. Someone who respects my boundaries and doesn’t try to push them for his own selfish desires.

I’m sick of being treated like an option when I’ve been making him a priority. It’s exhausting, and it’s bullshit.
No more settling for crumbs of affection. No more making excuses for bad behavior.
I’m done with the “he’s just busy” or “maybe he’s not ready for a relationship” nonsense. If he wanted to, he would. Period.
It’s time to raise the bar. It’s time to demand more.
I want a partner who’s emotionally available, not someone who’s still figuring out how to tie his own shoes. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
I’m looking for a man who’s not afraid of commitment. Someone who sees a future with me and isn’t terrified by the thought of it.
I want depth. I want substance. I want conversations that go beyond “what’s up” and “you up?”

I’m done with the boys who think a last-minute “u free?” text at 11 PM is an acceptable way to make plans. It’s not.
I want someone who plans dates, who puts in effort, who shows up consistently. Is that really too much to ask?
I’m tired of feeling like I’m too much. Too loud, too opinionated, too ambitious.
A real man won’t try to dim my light. He’ll help me shine even brighter.
I’m done shrinking myself to fit into someone else’s narrow view of what a woman should be. I’m not a puzzle piece to be shaped and molded.
I’m a whole damn person, with dreams, goals, and a life of my own. I need a partner who understands and respects that.
No more chasing after emotionally stunted man-children who can’t handle a strong woman. I’m not here to be anyone’s mother or therapist.

I want an equal. Someone who’s done their own work and isn’t looking for a woman to “fix” them.
I’m ready for a man who’s not intimidated by my success. Who celebrates my achievements instead of feeling threatened by them.
I want someone who understands that supporting each other doesn’t mean losing yourself. It means growing together.
I’m done with the lukewarm, half-assed attempts at relationships. I want passion, commitment, and depth.
I want a love that feels like coming home, not like walking on eggshells.
No more settling for potential. I’m not a renovation project, and neither is my love life.
I want a man who’s ready now. Who knows what he wants and isn’t afraid to go after it.

I’m done with the breadcrumbing, the mixed signals, and the emotional unavailability. It’s exhausting, and life’s too short for that bullshit.
I deserve someone who’s all in. Who chooses me every day, not just when it’s convenient.
I want a love that’s brave. That faces challenges head-on instead of running away at the first sign of trouble.
I’m ready for a relationship that adds to my life, not complicates it. That brings joy, not constant anxiety.
No more waiting by the phone. No more analyzing every text. No more wondering where I stand.
I want clarity. I want consistency. I want a love that doesn’t leave me questioning my worth.
I’m done with the boys who can’t handle a strong, independent woman. Who feel the need to tear me down to build themselves up.

I want a man who’s secure enough in himself to celebrate my strengths. Who sees my success as our success.
I’m ready for a love that feels like a partnership. Where we lift each other up and face the world together.
No more one-sided relationships where I’m doing all the emotional heavy lifting. It’s time for reciprocity.
I want a man who’s not afraid to be vulnerable. Who understands that real strength lies in openness and honesty.
I’m done with the games. The “wait three days to text back” bullshit. The “act like you don’t care” nonsense.
I want authenticity. I want someone who’s not afraid to show their true self, flaws and all.
It’s time to level up. To demand more. To know my worth and refuse to accept anything less.
I’m ready for a real man. A grown-ass adult who knows how to love fully and fearlessly.
And you know what? If he’s not out there, then I’d rather be alone. Because I’m done settling.
I’m done chasing. I’m done waiting.
I’m ready for the real deal. And I won’t accept anything less.
