Pisces: He wishes he could tell you that you were more than his girlfriend. That you were his best friend and it really sucks now that you’re gone.

He hasn’t answered me for three days straight, so I claim that I’m finished with him. That I don’t want anything to do with him anymore. That I deserve better than scum like him. But then his name pops up on my phone screen and I forget all about the promises I made myself.

I don’t want my self-worth to be dependent on some guy, but it is. It wavers, depending on how much attention you’ve been giving me. Based on whether or not you seem interested on any given day.

I still refer to your house as your house, even though someone else is living there now. I still celebrate your birthday. I still talk to you, even though my words are aimed at the sky instead of a phone.

He ignores your texts — but likes your selfies.

She expects you to check your phone during your lunch break to let her know that you miss her.

Capricorn: Carrie. You were the kid that never really fit in. The kid that wished they could get revenge on their peers.

He doesn’t deserve a text back if it’s going to hurt you. If answering his message and letting him take hold of your heart again is more painful than deleting his number.
