Learning to be Human Again

Once, long ago I had gotten so emotionally hurt that I had decided to shut off these emotions to avoid the pain. In many ways it was overly successful and through this in many ways I had “lost” my humanity. Through this there were many emotional break downs that I had no longer understood. After each break down I went back to “shutting them off”, in other words bottling them up. I drifted like this for years, not understanding the rest of humanity around me. I made friends, yes, but that was done with my “false” personality. I went along with it and became a follower. I still had the breakdowns but my mental stability went downhill and it went fast.

Then I came to University. I met you and all of our friends. Over the days I slowly stopped being the “fake me” and you and some of our friends chose to stay with the “real me”. Day by day all of you helped show me that being human was worth all of the pain and the sorrow that came with the happiness and the joy. I was learning to be Human again, when you and I fell for each other. Now when my break downs occur I have all of you to help me not shut it all back off. I have you to thank for breaking the ice from around my heart, and all because you agreed to be my girl.

For you and the betterment of myself, I am more willing than ever to Learn How to be Human Again.

Again... beautiful!!! 

For many years I pretended to be someone else... It's probably the worst thing you can do to yourself...

I am so glad you two found each other!
