Took me my entire life to realise it...but although I have many friends, im always missing dates, never reply to text, and generally have no real drive to see my friends. theyre usually just always around. I dont keep contact with anyone, although id rather be in company 100% of my time. I simply cannot commit as much as "best friends" do because i get way to distracted. Last year I met a lovely girl, we progressed normally, but after 3 months, i forgot to tell her that i was going away for the weekend and id left my phone at home. After two days I used another phone to text her, and from then i never ever got a reply from her again. She Said it showed lack of commitment. 2 years on and i realise im exactly the same...flaky. Is there a way i can explain this to loved ones? Ive always thought the word "freedom" is cliche to describe gemini, but i genuinely have no explanation for why im like this. It all feels 100% inate in how i interact with the world.
