The Best Revenge Is Going Silent

--

This one is for the overthinkers.

The people who wrote long paragraphs and never got replies.

The ones who replayed every conversation, every shift in tone, wondering if they were too much or not enough.

This isn’t about revenge in the way you’ve been taught.

But reclaiming your energy, your dignity, and your power.

They Expected You to Chase

They were counting on:

  • your need for closure.
  • your pattern of reaching out, explaining yourself, and fixing things that weren’t yours to fix.

They knew your heart was open, maybe too open, and they banked on that.

But not this time.

Because this time, you choose a different approach.

This time, you’re not texting back.

You’re not posting a “look at me now” story.

You’re not crafting a perfect goodbye just so they’ll understand your worth.

You’re just… gone.

And that silence is the loudest thing you’ve ever said.

You Are Not Petty.
