I present myself as an emotionally strong person but I’m not. I’m easily jealous, I get needy sometimes, and I get lonely easily. I don’t want a whole group of friends, I just want a few people who understand. But when someone does come along who genuinely wants to understand and support me, I drive them away. Sometimes I think there’s something wrong with me. I wish I was better at controlling how I feel. I guess I should talk about my feelings more often, but I am too ashamed.
