← The Pattern You Keep Repeating

🏃 The Early Exit

You leave first, so that leaving never happens to you.

You have never been dumped, laid off, or asked to leave, and that is not luck — it is a policy. The moment a situation develops the faint smell of possibly going wrong, you are already assembling the reasons and drafting the speech. You call it self-respect and it partly is. But look at the timing again: you leave at the first ambiguous signal, not the first real one, which means you have ended several things that were not ending. The Eye notices you have collected a lot of situations you had to leave and almost none you got to find out about, and that the story you tell about each of them is identical, right down to the phrasing.

Where it costs you

Once, wait for the second signal instead of the first. Not forever — just long enough to find out whether the thing was ending or just having a bad week.

What the Eye sees

you have never been left, which sounds like luck until you count how many things you ended before they had a chance to be anything.
