Capricorn

The friendships that fade without argument or incident are often the ones that were running on borrowed energy from the beginning. You know this about the person you used to talk to every week and now think about twice a month. What felt like closeness was sometimes just convenience, two people filling the same space at the same moment when filling space felt necessary. The quiet between you now is not a failure of care but a return to the natural distance that was always there, under the regular check-ins and shared complaints. Some connections are built to last decades. Others are built to last until one of you no longer needs what the other was providing.
