Next time, ask yourself:

Are you offering something that makes a woman feel adored—

or are you just offering yourself in bulk?

Because if all you’ve got to offer is

constant conversation,

but not a single thoughtful gesture—

I'm not staying.

I’m running.

In heels.

With peace in my heart

and your number blocked.

So if your idea of “giving me attention”

is 37 missed calls

and a playlist of recycled sweet talk,

Let me make this clear:

You’re not giving attention.

You’re giving annoyance.

You think your unlimited texting plan is love?

I think it’s noise.

You’re giving “good morning babe” energy—

I needed “remembered what I liked and got it for me” energy.

Because here’s the thing:

Consistency is cute

but generosity is hotter.

Intent is sexier than spam.

And thoughtful silence?

Still better than forced conversation.

And before you call me materialistic—

No. It’s not always about money.

It’s about effort.

It’s about the kind of attention that makes me feel seen,

chosen,

and respected—

Not just chased.

No, sweetie.

When she says attention—

she means gifts.

Cash.

Proof.

Presence in the form of presents.

A Chanel bag says “I care”

a lot louder than

you saying “I miss you”

after missing every hint I’ve dropped since Tuesday.

And trust me—

we can tell the difference

between a man who’s generous

and a man who’s just...available.

not a full-blown radio broadcast schedule.

He thought he was being sweet.

I thought I was being haunted.

My phone buzzing like it owed him rent

and me sitting there like:

“Where’s the gift?”

“Where’s the effort that actually takes effort?”

Let’s get something straight:

When a woman says “I want attention,”

She is not saying

“Send me 87 versions of ‘wyd’ in a day.”

She’s not begging for

“good morning texts” like she’s starving.

She’s not saying

“Be my emotional voicemail box.”
