The people I've loved best have been people I've been able to speak with openly, without being asked to cover my heart or my eyes. If our friendship can only exist under censor, I'm afraid it's not a love I know how to give.
If only the world could be as honest! How often do we meet people only to discover they're wearing a mask? Sad sad world!
Those are words of wisdom, my sweet friend!
Thank you, lovely. I had that unpleasant surprise with someone very dear to me quite recently. But the good news is there's always room to change our perspective. I think sometimes you only realize after a relationship's over that those people were genuine and wanted what's good for you. Always room to grow :)
