Is Medium Playing with Me?
My awkward relationship with Medium
We fell in love back in late November and became partners after 7 days of knowing each other.
Yeah, pretty fast I know!😅
We loved each other, I would often come home to share my stories with you after a long day of work and you would bring laughter and joy to my stories.
You would share with me the latest cool stuff that you know I love to read and we made passionate love *writing* to each other.
But lately, you have changed
You beat around the bush too much

When I want to know you better, you share with me the stories that are getting popular on your feed, begging me to add my thoughts on them, which I happily did!
Aww BABY!
One day you get all excited, then the next day you turned silent on me. This relationship has moments of a spike of excitement but we never seal the deal(this means getting consistent readers).
The Love-Hate Relationship
Do you love me or not?!
I have to come clean to ask you upfront. The feeling is weird.
On one hand, you flourish me with attention from views, readerships, and claps. Occasionally, I would find myself with a group of your friends after you have shared my stories with more of your friends.
I can’t wait to make love to you!
When we got home, I wanted to bring you to my bed. But you strike me down saying that I’m not interesting anymore.
What gives man!😅
You used to love my flowers💐😟
Almost every day over the last 2 months, I have sent you flowers(posts) that you always liked. I remembered all of it!
Sunflowers(content writing), Tulips(startups), and the new type of roses(ChatGPT) you recently feel in love with. You see, I would do anything for you!

We did do our best to build this relationship, on 24th January we will be celebrating our 2nd month with now over 200 posts. But lately, it seems that the flowers I give you aren’t to your liking anymore and you may have moved on.
I want to know your True Feelings!
I hope this relationship is not a game for you. I don’t fancy this game of ever chasing hope.
I have been quite transparent with you about myself. Sharing my love for writing content, side hustle, personal finance, and running businesses.
You smiled but didn’t say anything.
I know you’re just testing my conviction for you and that you’re like an onion. Yes, I will take my time to peel you open and by then, I will know what are your TRUE FEELINGS for me!
Author’s Thought
I will be honest!
This is the weirdest topic I have ever written but it perfectly summarises how I felt Medium is treating me.
Right now, I’m feeling confused as to what Medium is trying to work with me on, so maybe as time passes, we can get to better know each other and hopefully grow a deeper relationship together.
