You can be the prettiest shade of green, but you’ll never be enough for someone whose favorite color is blue.
You can’t make someone love you by giving them more of what they don’t want.
So you start changing your color, adding a little blue, then more, until you’re not even green anymore.
And whatever you turn into, they don’t want that either, so all you’re left with is losing your green trying to be someone’s blue.
Eventually it becomes clear there was nothing you could have done differently to change that.
Some people don’t need more of you, they need something else entirely.
