i don't think people really understand that there is no coming back from certain things. Some damage does not get undone, and once it changes how you see someone, that's it. Not everything deserves a second chance, no matter how sorry they are.
If we date, don’t stop being you. Keep having fun, keep seeing your friends, keep chasing your goals, and keep enjoying your life. A relationship should add to your life, not take away from it. Just make sure you save time for us too.
