What they don't know is that there is more to her.
There are feelings and opinions and emotions.
There are flaws.
But when someone places an already set list of expectations on you of you,
you feel like your only option is to be that.
Nothing else.
Opening up becomes hard because you fear they will see the flaws that they didn't expect you to have.
And you don't let them see your flaws for that very reason.
No openness.
No vulnerability.
It's a vicious cycle that needs to be broken.
