Break your heart Quote by Anonymous
“It's like once you've been hurt, you're so scared to get attached again. Like you have this fear that every person you start to like is going to break your heart. Everyone I trust shows me why I shouldn't have? Sometimes, when a person goes through a lot, they lose the ability to trust. They find themselves pushing everyone they get close to away. They're constantly scared of getting hurt and they think everyone is out to get them. They're not used to people caring for them.”
