Stop "Liking" Everything

So i don't mean to sound over dramatic or over-analyze everything (although I will, because I'm a girl and that's what we do. In fact, not to would be abandoning the definition of womanhood.)

But I've noticed something on the cyber world that has been bugging me..

why are you liking every picture that girl put up and why have all my photos gone "unliked."
you know who else likes all those girl's photos..her boyfriend. yeah you know the one she's not going to leave you for.

you know why she's not going to leave him, because he's a good boyfriend and likes her shit. he acknowledges her presence online, wheras to you I am just another online subscriber.

not saying it matters or anything but when you're  thumb upping pictures of all these other girls but can't even give me half a thumb it makes me wonder.

what, am i not thumb worthy?

i mean if you had no online presence it would be no big deal but you are present in the cyber world and yet i go unacknowledged.

i mean its not like im asking you to be those annoying couples that tells the entire world how much they schubly loveyy wuvvy dovvey each other, but a "hey ya look good in this pic" wouldn't hurt.

i'm not asking you to jump on the cyber space couch and announce to the world you love me (although i wouldn't mind that much.)  but letting others know that i'm a step above the rest is all i need.

these stupid facebook things are actually just small indicators of how you treat me in the real world. there's nothing that seperates me from any other female friend you have, except that i carry the title "girlfriend."

i tried to accept the fact that you weren't that romantic guy. you weren't that pour your feelings out, text cute things throughout the day, surprise me randomly with dinner/flowers, or tell me how happy you are to be with me guy.

you were never that guy an you'll never be that guy.

i think you keep me because it's convenient. love? don't think so. lust? now we're getting somewhere.
i think you want to be in love and you figure i'm a nice girl and maybe i could be "the one" but i doubt you've ever experienced true love.

i think we're attracted to each other and we have fun together and... well that's about it.

we lack that deep emotional connection, you know the ones boyfriends and girlfriend usually have.
 the feeling that you can completely be yourself (say anything you want, do anything you want no matter how goofy or dorky or awkward, and know that no judgement is being passed), the feeling that that person will always be there for you no matter what, that feeling that makes you incredibly happy to know that this is your person, that feeling that even when you're sad they try to make you happy because it hurts them to see you sad,  that feeling that you care more about the other person than yourself, that feeling that you can't even explain because it can only be felt by your heart, that feeling that you know you both have.

i don't think you feel any of those things toward me.
i don't think you think about me in that way.
i don't think you think of me at all.


you never are proud, supportive, encouraging, caring, sensitive, sweet. and yet i am always proud, supportive, encouraging, caring, sensitive, and sweet. i'm the one who pours my feelings out, who texts you cute things throughout the day, surprises you with a romantic dinner. 

i guess i keep trying to make things work and hope that the sparkle will happen but maybe it's just not there. maybe you just can't make that extra effort to press the like button...or maybe you can...just not with me.
