When they write to you only when you are bored. When they invite you to meet if other plans have fallen through. When they remember you not out of desire, but out of convenience.

I decided for myself once and for all: I am not a backup player. I am a person who deserves to be in the lead role, and not in the shadow of someone's doubts. If they choose me, it means they choose with their heart and for real. Otherwise, why waste time?

Each of us deserves a relationship in which there is respect, sincerity and a desire to be together. If someone sees me as just a temporary option, let them keep looking. I will not agree to anything less than love and true value.

Have you ever felt like you were a "backup option" for someone? What did you do?
