the curse of being alone for years is that there's a reason behind it, at least from my experience.

i've had a few relationships in the past. we didn't work out for multiple reasons, all boiling down to i was too young, we were too young, and there's more to life than this. plus, some were liars, manipulative, and cheaters that don't really care. it was a weird time to live in.

years of being single after taught me a lot of men are disgusting pieces of shit, taking advantage of a lot of my girl friends' love for them.

and then the stars aligned for me and gave me a guy i absolutely adored for years. a guy so good, so mature, so soft-spoken that a lot of things started going wrong.

it became clear i was the problem.

and now i understand why i was single for more than half a decade.
