Summary
Has this trainwreck ever happened to you?!
You play it super cool in the beginning of the relationship (you know catch flights, not feelings am I right)
THEN gradually the person “wears down” your walls and
You.Let.Them.In.
And this absolutely terrifies you, but you did it anyways, because well they earned your trust and deep down you really don’t want to die alone
But hold up.
It seems like the SECOND they know you like them- they do a total 180
All of a sudden you are PURSUING THEM
And you go, what in the actual hell
How dare you take entrance into the heart for granted.
That’s extremely VIP access boo, and now here you are pulling away from ME?! The nerve!
