I do like animals but unfortunately we're not allowed to have them and also I don't make enough money to care for another living being. I'll have fun with my friends' pets though, they're cute.
People though, I don't want them to love me. Every time someone "loves" me, it's for a really superficial reason and I'm done with it all. I don't need it.
crying while in the middle of chapter four because I related all too well. I have to admit, I've let just a few people break me sufficiently. It's just as they say. I've been betrayed so much in various ways that I can't bring myself to put love or trust in anyone anymore. All my memories just came back and I couldn't stop crying. It doesn't help that this person recently started talking to me again almost 10yrs after they hurt me. It was so bad at the time that right after what happened, I got extremely sick and wasn't able to talk for a while. Then I cried for years. I was an idiot for putting my heart in someone else's hands.
It only hurts as much as you loved them. If you don't love, you don't hurt. It's worked for me so far, and I don't wanna feel that ever again.
