>>3596977There was this girl in high-school I really really liked. She was generally very reserved and spoke to almost no one. We talked a lot in our final year and she shared a lot of personal things with me. Things like intense childhood traumas, self-harm scars, et cetera. So many bad things had happened to her, and they kept happening. I ended up intentionally ignoring her because I was scared that she'd reject me. She unsurprisingly stopped trying to talk to me eventually. I can't believe I was this retarded and afraid. I'm so worried that one of these days one of the few classmates I keep in contact with will casually tell me that she's done "that". It keeps me awake at night.
