How To Know You’re Dating A Runner
A Runner isn’t afraid of you. They’re afraid of being known. Here are ten signs you’re dating one:
- They never speak in the future tense.
- They’re masters at picking fights.
- They deflect when you ask a direct question.
- They treat telling you their secrets like they’re doing you a favor.
- They prioritize sex over a spiritual connection.
- They lack real faith of their own, but always question everyone else’s.
- They turn to substances instead of to people.
- They push the individuality agenda over togetherness.
- They live in their heads and rarely want to talk it out loud.
- They’d rather crack jokes about their insecurities than sit and actually discuss them.
A Runner keeps one foot out the door so they never have to feel the fear of staying. But you can’t build a home with someone who’s always ready to leave.
So if this list looks familiar — the question isn’t whether they’ll stop running. It’s whether you’re willing to keep chasing someone who won’t stand still long enough to be loved.
