Kila nilipomwona moyo wangu ulikimbia, yet months of being ignored and dismissed by the one I loved finally led me to uncover the shocking truth behind his coldness.

   

Every time I saw him, my heart would race. I admired his confidence, his ambition, and the quiet way he carried himself. When we were introduced through mutual friends, I believed it was fate. I tried to start conversations. I checked in occasionally.

I showed genuine interest in his life. But instead of reciprocating, he kept snobbing me. Sometimes he would read my messages and not reply. Other times he would respond hours later with short, dismissive answers. When we met in public, he was polite but distant.

It was confusing because I could sense chemistry, yet he behaved as though I meant nothing to him. People warned me to move on. They said I was embarrassing myself by chasing someone who clearly was not interested.
But my heart would not let go.

Months turned into a year. I tried stepping back. I tried dating other people. Yet no matter how far I went, I found myself thinking about him. Deep down, I believed something was blocking what should have been natural.

The coldness did not match what I felt when we occasionally locked eyes. There was tension, but it was restrained. One evening after another painful encounter where he barely acknowledged me at an event, I broke down. I felt humiliated and emotionally drained.
