Sometimes, I feel lonely even when I'm with someone. Perhaps it's the emptiness that comes from being too familiar with each other. Familiarity brings comfort, but that comfort can sometimes make us take each other for granted, letting care and attention slip away.
When we are both too busy, it feels as if our hearts fail to connect, even when we share the same space. Caught up in our own responsibilities, we often neglect those closest to us. Maybe it’s because we think, “They know me well enough, so it’s fine.” Yet, this very assumption can lead to unintentionally hurting each other in ways we wouldn’t with someone we’re less familiar with.
To ensure closeness doesn’t turn into indifference, perhaps we need to make an effort to rediscover each other, even in the comfort of familiarity. Taking moments to check in, to notice the little things, and to be mindful of each other even in silence—these small acts can transform shared moments into deeper connections. 5 replies
