I'm gonna be completely honest here: I've been hurt more times than I can bear at this point. I'm just so exhausted from doing everything I can to mend the broken hearts of others only to have mine shattered by the end of it, left with nothing more than the question of why I bothered in the first place. I don't know if this is the appropriate place to be sharing this. And quite frankly, I don't care. I'm tired of holding back. I'm tired of apologizing for who I am. I'm tired of feeling like shit for it. If I have a meaningful connection with someone, I will do everything I can to make that person's life better and respect their wishes. That's just who I am, and I have no desire to change that. Take it or leave it. With that in mind, if you're still interested, then you're more than welcome to reach out to me. All I ask is that you treat me with the same respect I extend toward you. It's as simple as that.
For those wondering about my writing, I plan to get back to it soon. Hopefully this weekend.
