All the Reasons to Leave
Today. Today is a prime example of why I need to leave. I don’t like the person I’ve become. I suppose I was kidding myself to think that years of near complete isolation would end up being good for me. I know that I’m a much angier person than I used to be. You can even begin to understand what that statement really means if you don’t really know me. I’ve always had a temper… Push the wrong buttons and see what happens, go ahead… I fucking dare you.
The truth is that recently it’s taken less and less. I find myself growing angier as time slips by. And I don’t like it anymore.
This forced isolation has only strenghten my irrational belief that I don’t need anyone. I hate that I derive pleasure from pushing people away. That I will likely not be satisfied until I’ve completely alienated everyone that cares, for no other reason than that I’ve turned myself into an untrusting person. I see peoples expressions of love and caring as lies, because I feel unworthy of love. I’ve turned everyone into liars because I was hurt.
This is why I need to leave. I need to force myself to trust again. I need to force myself into situations where it’s okay for me to need someone. I need to escape this fucking bubble.
And the only reason I feel safe saying this here is because I know nobody reads this, but tonight I could use a hug…

I guess you’re wrong about no one reading this. But don’t worry, as always, arms remain at the sides. Unless…
