I’m not going to be your afterthought.

I’m not your last-minute invite, your fallback plan, the girl you call up when the party’s growing tired and you’re lonely.

I’m not the girl who waits for you to make up your mind. I’m not the spineless kind, the doormat variety, the kind of girl who’ll bend over backwards to please you when you wouldn’t lift a finger unless it is perfectly convenient.

I’m not the girl who sticks around in anticipation.

Your indecision is a decision. And it’s one you have every right to make.

But I’m not going to be here to see it through.

I’m not going to waste away sitting on your back burner. I’m not going to put your interests first, when you’re already busy doing the same. I’m not going to ask ‘how high’ when you ask me to jump.

I’m not going to let you occupy any more space in my mind, my heart, my list of ever-shifting priorities, if you will not place me onto yours.

I’m not the girl who waits around for men as indecisive as you.

I have my own life to live.

I have my own decisions to make.

I have a strong heart but an even stronger backbone.

And the best decision I will make today is the decision to close the door on you and I.
