I've always been too good at being on my own. I've always known the cost of it, and I've always accepted the consequences of it. It makes it easier for me to make choices in my life.
I make choices that suit me, and then life turns around and throws me into the arms of a man who does not want to be alone. It scares me to look into his eyes and realize how much I feel for him. There are honestly moments of disgust, especially when I can only explain most of my actions as 'defense mechanisms' and he tells me I can't always brush it off with that excuse. I just keep thinking 'please, stay here' but really accept that I've been places you haven't. There are things he won't tell me about his life, but he will eventually. It's just sad that he won't realize that there are things I will never tell him.
