Yesterday say morning a friend drove past me on the street while I was walking to work. Unsure if I should have, I looked closely into the window. I saw that they were smiling and waving at me; so I returned the wave.
Later in the day, I was walking home from somewhere-else and this time I saw this same friend pass by me in the direction of my travel. I choose to send a “👋” emoji, to acknowledge them passing me. They replied with “Hello 👋” back.
Now giving recent other events and other past events I don’t feel it’s my place to “push”’ myself forward. Meaning I think they need to make an effort to reach out and talking with me. I had sent a text a few days ago in regards to another matter and got no reply. As such I felt uncomfortable trying to much to force a meeting. Choosing to wait for them.
And that is very sad. 😞
