It’s hard for me to trust someone after what I’ve been through. I’ve trusted people easily before, & what happened? I’ve been disappointed, lied to, cheated on, played like a fool. & I just can’t seem to get over what other people have done to me. & I know it isn’t fair for you cause you haven’t done anything to me, but I have to be careful, I have to expect the worst, I have to shut you out sometimes, as much as I don’t want to, for my own good. I only hope you understand.

Just because someone flirts with you, doesn’t mean they like you.
Just because someone likes you, doesn’t mean they want to date you.
Just because someone dates you, doesn’t mean they love you.
Just because someone loves you, doesn’t mean they won’t hurt you.

The Boyfriend/Best friend

Sometimes, when your girlfriend is feeling down, it is best to know that she can come to you as her best friend for help. When she is feeling sad, she wants to know that you are reliable. She wants to know that you still care. If she doesn’t talk, keep talking to her. Don’t let her forget about it but if she wants to drop it, just be there to support her. She needs to know that you put ‘friend’ first before the “boyfriend”. When she needs you at her lowest, will you be there for her or will you let her go? As the boyfriend, not only are you to be her lover, you are to be her best friend.  She needs someone she can trust to talk to. This also is vice-versa for the girls to support their boyfriend.
