i'm a very forgiving person, so if i stopped talking to you, you really did too much. i'm someone who lets things go, who tries to understand, who gives so many chances. i always hope people will change and treat me better. but if i finally walked away, it means you crossed a line i couldn't ignore anymore. it means staying started to exhaust me. and it means you left me no choice. sometimes the only way to protect myself is to be quiet and step back, especially when someone keeps showing me they don't care.
