I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being, with an independent will; which I now exert to leave you.

About This Quote

You did not ask me to be your friend. You did not offer me any chocolate or even ask for my phone number. You just did it without telling me. Now, you are asking me to leave you.

Friends do not ask someone who they just met to leave them because they don’t feel like being their friend anymore. You don’t even know how I feel about you. It is obvious you don’t care about the person who is on the other side of the screen.
