No One Is Busier Than Someone Who Isn't Interested in You" – A Hard Truth About Dating



We’ve all been there—waiting for a text back, analyzing vague excuses, and trying to convince ourselves that someone’s busy schedule is the *only* reason they’re not making time for us. But here’s the hard truth: **No one is busier than someone who isn’t interested in you.**  

### **Actions Speak Louder Than Words**  
When someone is genuinely interested, they *make* time—even if it’s just a quick text, a short call, or squeezing in a 30-minute online game between their hectic schedule. As the original Reddit post points out, the difference between *"I’m too busy"* and *"I can’t hang today because of X, but how about Y?"* is massive. One is a brush-off; the other is an effort.  

### **The "Busy" Excuse vs. Real Priorities**  
We live in a world where people have endless demands—careers, kids, personal growth, mental health, and social lives. Yet, if someone wants you in their life, they’ll find a way. If they don’t, they’ll find an excuse.  

- **Not interested?** → *"I’m just really busy right now."* (No follow-up, no rescheduling.)  
- **Interested but actually busy?** → *"This week is insane, but let’s plan for next Tuesday!"*  

### **The Trauma & Overthinking Trap**  
As the OP mentioned, past rejections and insecurities can make it hard to trust when someone *is* making an effort. Our brains love to sabotage us with thoughts like:  
- *"What if they’re just being nice?"*  
- *"Maybe they’ll lose interest once life gets harder."*  

But if someone is consistently showing up—despite their packed schedule—that’s a **green flag**. The key is learning to differentiate between genuine effort and breadcrumbing.  

### **When to Walk Away**  
If you’re always the one initiating, waiting days for replies, or hearing *"I’m busy"* with zero attempt to reconnect, it’s time to accept reality. **You deserve someone who’s excited to be with you—not someone who treats you like an option.**  

### **Final Thought**  
As one commenter wisely said:  
> *"If you don’t hear from someone within 24-48 hours in some way, they’re not interested like that."*  

Pay attention to **actions**, not words. And if someone isn’t making time for you? Don’t waste your time waiting.
