The Situation

"He doesn't make an effort to stay connected"

The Brutal Truth

His lack of effort signals that you're not a priority to him. He may be emotionally unavailable or simply not interested in developing a deeper connection. It suggests he's more comfortable with superficial interactions than meaningful engagement.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might chase after him, trying to convince him to stay connected, believing that their efforts will win him over. This is wrong because it signals desperation and reduces self-worth; relationships should be reciprocal, not one-sided.
