I feel safer when you're present. I enjoy being around you.
I worry about you. But also... you'll always be fine, won't you? Stop flexing, it's suspicious.
I doubt our values align. I doubt I can trust you. Will this make things harder for me at work? Are you even capable of considering that? How much awareness do you even have?
Can we just pretend for a few months and look out for each other?
Or does all protection and safety get revoked when you find out I'm ace and a terrible flirt?
You're not trustworthy. Your communication skills aren't good. I can hold my own and survived without you before.
But it feels so good to feel protected.
For now.
