Love isn't sunshine and rainbows, love is a war zone. Maybe it's a safe house when you find the right person, but there are so many people wearing masks, tricking you into believing that they're "the One", but they're not... Thanks to Ollie and his gun, I've picked one up myself. I hope never to use it, but after a lover uses his on you one too many times, you're bound to shoot a second too soon... It's hard not to. If someone is able to find the door in your walls, why shouldn't you defend yourself against the intruder? But even though love is a war zone, sometimes the silence and loneliness that comes from singledom can be suicidal. Don't shoot. Put the safety on. Breathe. If love isn't who he's meant to be, you'll find his tells... Trust yourself. Love yourself.
