I feel like I owe you an apology.
You see, I'm deeply flawed.

I probably won't ever trust you completely.
It's not personal; someone else broke me a long time ago.
I know I shouldn't make you pay for their mistakes, but I'm only human.

I do a lot of innocent flirting, but the moment you take it farther than I'm comfortable with; I won't speak to you for a while or even ever again.
It isn't because I don't like you, or maybe it is.
I just can't allow myself to be an object of sex ever again.
I refuse to put up with disrespect ever again.
My red flags go up the instantly and that a sign I need to leave.

I'm not going to sleep with you, and I'll never send you pictures.
I am more than what I do or won't do with my body.
If I ever feel pressure from you; I'll show you the door.

I know who I am and what I'm worth.
The second I have to question if you know or not is the moment you'll be gone.

I won't blow off my friends for you.
If you want to do something with me, I can't be a last minute thought.

I'm not sure if our relationship will ever grow or go anywhere.
I was married once and it was the biggest mistake of my life, and I never want to do that again.
Not that I didn't enjoy being a wife, but when you've given your best away there's nothing left to give.

I like my independence.
I love not worrying about being lied to, cheated on, or suffering from a broken heart.

I guess the bottom line is, I'd love to go to dinner and a movie, binge watch Netflix, and cook you dinner every now and then, but please don't expect anything more.

I got nothing left.
