The Situation

"He said he cares but doesn't show it"

The Brutal Truth

His words are empty. Saying he cares without actions means he's either emotionally unavailable or playing games. He may want you around for convenience but doesn't value you enough to invest. Watch out—this is a classic sign of toxic behavior.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might start overthinking his actions and reaching out more, trying to gain reassurance. This is the wrong move because it signals neediness and lowers your self-worth; it should be him earning your trust through consistent actions instead.
