Facts

Before you ask me to be your girlfriend, there are some things you need to know:

I’m damaged.

I get triggered easily.

I struggle with trauma memories.

There are nights when I’m curled up in a ball on the floor and I refuse to talk to anyone.

I’ll shut you out.

I won’t be able to trust you for a long time, because everyone I’ve ever trusted has always left, lied, abused me, manipulated me or chosen someone else.

I will need a lot of reassurance.

I will need you.

I will need you to keep choosing me.

I’ll need you to care when I text you saying I’m getting bad again.

I’m a lot, I know this.

So before you think I’m always happy, that I’ll always be positive, then I’ll always be smiling, know the reality before you get involved with me.

Don’t enter my life if you can’t handle it.

Lastly, don’t you dare touch my heart if you are ready for that.

I am fragile and if you can’t handle with care don’t touch my heart.
