INTRODUCTION
“Sometimes, I can feel very lonely. Don’t get me wrong, I love being single and being able to focus on myself. But I’ve never been in love, not for real anyway. I think. That makes me kind of sad. I do want someone to care for who will care for me. I sometimes envy people who have that. Every time I’ve met someone, there have been things that scared me. That made me run away and not go all in. I don’t really know why. I’ve never really talked about it before, but I’ve often wondered if others feel the same way.”
