Our mothers have always seemed to tell us "Actions speak louder than words" and you know what? No truer words have ever been spoken. We always seem to have to consciously remind ourselves of this seemingly obvious fact of life though.
When it comes to romantic relationships we have a far easier time turning a blind eye when our object of affection is talking a big game but isn't living up to expectations. How many times have we bought dreams from sellers who are full of more lies than a used car salesman?
"Yeah baby you know all I wanna do is be with you." Meanwhile you've called them and they haven't responded in two days.
"I'm gonna start making more time for you soon. I've just been really busy lately". Meanwhile they stay tweeting like it's their full-time job.
"I'm gonna come see you really soon when I get some time". Meanwhile the last time you saw them Antonio Cromartie didn't have any kids yet.
Let's all say it together: Come. On. Son.
Anyone can say anything to anybody at anytime. But most of these people will do absolutely nothing to back up their claims. If someone is into you, they'll show it. They'll call, make time to spend with you, care about things that are important to you, and make sure that you know you're important to them.
If someone says they're "busy" as an excuse as to why they've been M.I.A. from your life for days on end but they allegedly really care about you, they might as well clock out now. President Obama isn't too busy to make time for Michelle so you know them with their little 9-5 job and nightly ESPN viewing isn't too busy to send you a text or give you a call.
Don't listen to what anyone says. Watch what they do. Their actions will speak volumes about just how interested they really are.

Completely true, emotions and denial are best friends in these situations.
