misread signals
an index of moments that meant something else.
not everything that feels like interest is interest.
not everything that stays is attachment.
some signals are neutral until we narrate them.
familiarity
you were easy to talk to.
i mistook ease for depth.
comfort is not always desire.
consistency
you replied.
i filled in the meaning.
availability is not intention.
politeness
you were kind.
i called it attraction.
not all warmth is directional.
proژهction
i heard what i was ready to hear.
not what was said.
desire is a loud interpreter.
presence
we were near.
nothing asked to deepen.
proximity is not escalation.
clarity
when i stopped narrating,
the signal became clear.
it wasn’t rejection. it was accuracy.
ending
nothing changed.
my interpretation did.
this is how misreads resolve.
