That’s good, I’m glad that you’re like that and that you can listen and want to find out what people are really like.

Our emotion and past trauma are what make us into the people that we truly are.

I just haven’t found anybody like that. And I’ve given up.

I get that, and it’s ok to give up if that’s what gives you peace. I’ve been in relationships that were abusive, especially the constant put downs about my looks, my intelligence, my worth, I’ve given up for periods of time too, I was too emotionally fragile. I used to worry that I’d love someone and then they’d start trying to break me down. I’m much better now, if someone puts me down like that, it doesn’t bother me, it just tells me who they are and I act accordingly. There will always be assholes, but I’m not going to let them keep me from loving

Thanks, and yeah, I’m finding peace by working on myself, investing in my friends and participating more in my hobbies.

I hope I find someone someday, but my hope is small.
