When you begin to date someone with anxiety you’ll notice how careful they are with everything they say. And you’ll notice how often they apologize.

In a world full of liars, I’ll always be honest.

I’m tired of carrying this weight on my shoulders from my past that haunts me.

I was afraid to discover you hadn’t missed me at all.

The words ‘what if’ are devil things that dictate my life.

It’s the goodbye you wish you didn’t have to say and the tears you can’t control.

The truth is I will always forgive you if you say sorry.

Maybe it’s those five seconds before you talk to her but you see her approaching and your heart beats a little bit faster.

Girls play games and compete with one another. Women don’t.

But those bad days have a way of testing everything about me.

Heartbreak is getting that plus one to a wedding and not knowing who you’re going to take.

She knows what it feels like to be lied to, to spare her feelings.

And I flirt with the idea of maybe but in reality, I know I’m just leading you on.

You question everyone thinking they are going to hurt you.

Pisces: You ruin your life by choosing the wrong people.

I looked down and tried to look away in hopes that everything I felt wasn’t written across my face. But I knew you knew.

It’s a hookup that’ll never be more and you know it hurts her to leave in the morning.

Strong girls are really good at being alone.
