It's not love that you're afraid of..❤️ I don't think I'm scared of love itself. I'm scared of going through the same pain again. Of trusting someone opening up and then watching it all fall apart like before. That kind of fear stays in you longer than you expect. It makes you doubt people even the good ones. And sometimes you pull back not because you don't care but because you're trying to protect what's left of yourself..❤️
