Public Announcement Challenge

This is an emergency broadcast.

This message is being issued due to a confirmed mismatch

between relational needs and available capacity.

Failure to acknowledge the following information

may result in prolonged emotional turmoil.

Be advised:

Some individuals operate with a low-demand model of love.

This model prioritizes ease,

minimal maintenance,

and interactions limited to what is easily accessible.

Depth is not required.

Absence is considered neutral.

Silence is not registered as a threat.

Others may experience love as a layered system—

requiring consistent presence,

attention to unspoken cues,

and engagement beneath the surface.

Sustained connection is necessary during periods of stress,

with reassurance, follow-through,

and open communication.

When these two systems occupy the same space,

interference is inevitable.

One party may signal repeatedly for engagement.

The other may respond by withdrawing,

seeking release rather than repair.

This is not a transmission error.

This is a structural incompatibility.

Take note:

Love alone is not sufficient

to compensate for misaligned expectations.

Intensity does not replace availability.

Wanting more does not create more to give.

Continued exposure may lead to self-doubt,

mental exhaustion,

and the false belief that effort can override incompatibility.

If you are receiving this message,

it is recommended that you evacuate the relationship immediately.

I have a lot of silly things (some dark things) inside my head, so I write them down. Sometimes they turn into poems.

    Wanting more does not create more to give--so true! I have wanted so badly.

    Vocal is really calling me out tonight... hitting me right in the gut. I love how simple ideas become profound when written down or said aloud.
