Cherag Shah explores whether missing someone means you should care about them, using introspection to examine emotional attachment and self-worth after a relationship ends.
Do you still care what they think, even after they left? Not because you want them back. You don't. You just want to be understood by someone they never really were. It's not about you missing them. It's about the version of you that never got the love you deserved. You still check their stories. Not out of obsession, but because a part of you wants them to realize what they lost. You gave your most real, honest self, and they walked away like it meant nothing. You are not stuck. You are a human. You are not forgettable. Your light was never wasted. It just wasn't meant for their eyes.
