It's hard for me to choose what to do in life. . .so I don't.

"Don't show them your voice, they'll think you're irritating."
"Don't show them your tears, they'll think you're weak."
"Don't show them your trust, they'll think you're gullible."

I never had a problem with what the others said to me. It all seemed tiresome either way, so I chose to let them pick. There is no point in any of it. Talking is just a waste of energy, Emotions are just a pain in the neck, and trust is just too hard to even gain from anybody, so why should I even bother with that?
.
.
.
At least that's what I used to think until I met the two greatest people that turned my whole life into a spinning record.

Love Shouldn't Hurt (My Personal Experience With Emotional Abuse) by Aria_Cosmic
10 parts Complete Mature
Change to disclaimer: I censored their name because they were getting death threats. THIS BOOK IS COMPLETE In my younger years, I accepted toxic manipulation and emotional abuse as normal and a sign of love. I've dealt with lying and manipulation all my life but never classified it as wrong since it all came from someone I loved: my father. I never fought back because I was raised to put trust in him because we were kin. A decade later, I come across Wattpad with a warm and loving community, and through mutual friends meet THEM. We then start dating on and off and then finally break up. Before we do break-up, they made me vow to never tell anyone what I had gone through and discovered about them. I said yes without hesitation because I was still madly in love with them and stupidly loyal; but as two years pass I realize I promised to not tell anyone about their true self so they could continue to do what they did to me and to silence me because they knew I still had feelings for them and was formidably loyal. I became damage control so they could continuously drag in new weak-minded people like me and make them go through the same pain and groom them to shower them with attention every second of the day and when they didn't; they made them feel as if they were wrong. They made their lovers feel like they were the bad guy and insignificant at the same time. In Present day, this still haunts me to the point I only get a few hours of sleep. My ex isn't here now and I feel I must share not only as a way to warn readers of people like them and how his definition of love is actually far from the truth, but as way of closure for myself.

The One

11 parts Complete Mature

It was only senior year. Four years of my life all about to come to an end for college next year. Had the stereotypical deadbeat father and hardworking mother in a Caribbean household. The bisexual, black girl trying to get through her senior year of high school. I was the girl who knew everyone but had a small group of friends. I was the star track and field runner for the girls' team at school. I hadn't been intimate with anyone in two years. It was going alright until I met you. You popped into my life, made my head spin into a 360, and that's when it all changed. You changed me. And for that, I mostly hate you then appreciate what you did to me. And it's because of you, I'll never be the same towards love again. They say your first love is something you won't ever forget. I won't, especially from the damage you done and continued to do.
